Do you love her?
Does she love you?
What if it were YOU with this/these problems? How would you feel if rejected for them?
What is God telling you?
A lot of people would reject her simply out of fear of catching something, or maybe the social aspect of NOT having many friends once they find out. (in which case they weren't really friends anyway!) You can't live in fear! Not saying it is an easy decision to make, but make it wisely.

It might seem a little cold, but I personally wouldn't risk it. Your body is a temple, why purposely put it in danger. It is simply a matter of survival and health. Yes, might be a little cold, but if she cared for you she wouldn't ask you to harm yourself for her happiness. So short answer. No it isn't wrong to not pursue a relationship with them.
Now that being said. It really is up to you. If you really love her and those things don't matter, that is your choice.

DotHack0, think your mind on good things, not sure if this is good to ponder for you. No offense, I love ya, bro.
but, Yeah, dh0 , go for positive , evocative imagery from our Lord and Savior, let the Holy Spirit speak to you through song, through bible (maybe pick up a CD in a christian bookstore , like ultima, or ??) and be ROCKED by Jesus.
But to answer your question, and, this goes for everything in our life, IF the Lord has led you to a girl with stds then ask Him why. See what your heart then feels (does) to you/for you. Follow your heart then, for it will purely be seeking God.
The Lord leads

1 always pray on it and if it's love and you see yourself being with her for the rest of your life. Only you God and her know how you feel and what you plan for. seeking advice in this matter maybe is a simple expample or clue...you need to pray on this a lot more then you have been. HIV/Aids is deadly and never goes away. As for other STDS some can be more prevented but it's all up to you. Best advice wait tell your married to sleep with anyone. also in this matter you have to ask yourself. How did she get the STD? some are by mistakes at hospitals with blood test's. This don't happen very often but I know a girl that got HEp C from the hospital. You have to see if it is by partners that she isn't repeater old habbits and God is the center of her life. You don't want to put yourself at risk of soemthing if this isn't love. I will keep you in my prayers.
Depends. You shouldn't let a disease stop you from reaching out and being there for a person, but as far as engaging in a romantic/intimate relationship... that's pretty much up to you. You should keep in mind that a lot of the incurable STD's are still very manageable and treatable, and if you use the right protection you can significantly decrease your chances of catching it (though you'll never fully eliminate those chances as long as you choose to engage in sexual activity with the infected partner, but you can decrease those odds all the same).
I personally think it'd be wrong, mostly because it seems like a rather trivial thing when you take into account how easily you can avoid spreading the disease, even if it's making the hard choice to simply never have sex, but if it's real love then sex shouldn't be a priority to begin with. It just seems wrong to reject a perfectly nice person just because they have a disease. That's just my personal opinion on the matter though, and I can understand the point of views of the people who'd disagree with that. Sex has never been important to me so I'd agree to a relationship with a wonderful person even if it meant I could never sleep with them.
