Forrest did not get AIDS in the film; and again, Jenny did not know she had AIDS (if she indeed had it - she referred to it as a "virus") when she was intimate with Forrest - she discovered that she was sick later on. I don't think that she ever meant to string him along - in fact, she was often running away because she had been abused in childhood and felt undeserving of his love. We can agree to disagree on that. I always felt she loved Forrest, actually, and didn't want to hurt him.
