The experience of living with the HIV virus and Aids has had new settings throughout the history of the epidemic, especially as the affective-sexual relationships of these people. Knowledge of HIV status causes changes in emotional settings and it aimed to comprise the meanings of affective-sexual relationships and marital relationship of people who lives with HIV/Aids and how is the process of self-care from the perspective of socio-historical psychology. Our employment was made with a database built from a data already collected between 2006 - 2007 and 2010 - 2012, consisting of 85 participants who had responded the 14 selected questions for the sample. The analysis of the data was performed from the elaboration of meanings cores and to deepen the qualitative analysis was realized one Hierarchical Analysis similarity generating clusters and used the testimonies of the people to illustrate the meanings of affective-sexual relationships and the influence of this relations in the promotion of self-care. The results obtained four clusters, two female and two male. The Cluster1 (women and men) is characterized by being made up of married couples, older, less scholarity and are in a stable relationship a longer time. These people tend reproduce the hegemonic standard of the feminine and masculine. The Cluster 2 (women and men) is characterized by being made up of younger people with a higher level of education, compared with Clusters1 and people who are in a shorter stable relationship or not in a stable relationship. These people have an idealization of romantic relationship, which is what they would like to construct, but at the same time have a better understanding of the real life and are more integrated psychologically. The results show that participants in this sample tend to reproduce the hegemonic pattern of affective-sexual relationships, often uncritically. On the other hand some participants can create new meanings to their relations and thereby build greater self awareness, changing some behaviors and having a better quality in their relationships, which may be a factor promoting self-care
