In March 1994, while working as an educator at a prominent AIDS service organization, I seroconverted after engaging in unprotected sex within a relationship. This article will explore the personal journey of seroconversion as I simultaneously worked in developing programs for helping gay men stay uninfected. Since that time there has been a ground swell of activism around primary prevention for gay men, as well as a movement to explore the psychosocial issues that are the core of sexual risk-taking. Besides discussing what was missing in my education, this article will examine the effects of current prevention services for HIV-negative gay men
