Yes it was. Bred at a local park by a very beautiful black man. When I got home the residual fluid had leaked out and left a pink stain in my shorts. An obvious sign that my anal walls had been breached. 

So when you did an at home test was it one that showed the two lines? What was you reaction to seeing you had been pozzed?

Honestly shocked at first. I wasn't chasing but loved BB and wasn't using condoms, so I wasn't surprised. Wasn't on PrEP as it was new and didn't have the opportunity to use it. After it settled I was relieved.  All anxiety gone and didn't have to worry about catching it. Liberated.

Okay. Things are different now days. I feel if or when I find out I'm poz I will not be too concerned. I know it's not a death sentence.  It can be controlled. Actually the last time I did an at home test and only saw one line I was a bit disappointed.

Yes, it can be controlled, but it’s truly expensive and for life.  It won’t get cheaper anytime soon.  Biktarvy retail is like $1000 per month.  Then add the doctor visits and deductibles and copays and it adds up.  And, of course, other diseases tend to pop up.

I have heard there are married guys who are too scared to get PReP because they are afraid their spouses will find out through insurance claims, etc.

There are lots of married guys in that situation.

I think it's awesome that married guys not on prep  still go to Bathhouse's and let guys there fuck them bare despite the risk of it.

Yes, and then I ask myself, "awesome for who?".  I love my mate.  If he wanted to poz I would certainly bring him into the fold (as it were).  But while I am not fretting being poz, some people do and I don't want to be the guy to sneak that into their life.  That said, it's really up to us to care for the body we live in however we see fit.  And I think that suggests the fault is us if we just assume...
