I want you to leave,'&#8221; Gunn recalled. &#8220;I had my own apartment, but I had been living with him for years. And I left. I drove to my apartment on Rock Creek Parkway.

He was the only person I had ever been with, and this is the advent of AIDS. It&#8217;s 1982.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">According to Gunn, the initial &#8220;self-pity&#8221; he felt transformed, due to the social context, into &#8220;completely unbridled anger, because I thought he may have given me a death sentence. I was tested every six months for 10 years for HIV, and thankfully, I had a clean slate.&#8221; But when it came to future sexual and romantic pursuits, &#8220;all this would come back like Niagara Falls, and it would just take the desire away.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Dear Chelsea <\/em>host Chelsea Handler joked that she and Gunn were true &#8220;kindred spirits,&#8221; as she <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.com\/Entertainment\/chelsea-handler-reveals-shes-marrying-kind\/story?id=22880312\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:doesn't plan on getting married;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">doesn&#8217;t plan on getting married<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Imagine the funds we could co-mingle,&#8221; Handler exclaimed, imagining the two of them as roommates.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">But Gunn said that while &#8220;being celibate and being someone who lives alone was a bit of an adjustment,&#8221; now decades into it, he &#8220;wouldn&#8217;t have it any other way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong><em>Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/ew-dispatch-newsletter-11812417\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:EW Dispatch newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">EW Dispatch newsletter<\/a>.<\/em><br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Gunn is in good company in the Hollywood celibacy club.
