Would you kiss someone if they were sick?

[Anonymous]

Yes

Maybe

No

[ak667]

I do sometimes but only when I'm not thinking about it. My wife and I tend to share illnesses as a result, since we both try to avoid kissing each other when we're sick. But often I might be ill and my wife might drink from my cup or kiss me without thinking about it and I'm not, "Wait, don't... you'll catch my illness!" and whoops, too late, and then she's sick the next day. And I do the same thing to her when she's sick and get sick the next day.

If we could just remember, we'd avoid it, but we're so used to habitually kissing and sharing food and drinks and things like that without thinking twice about it.

[...] without thinking about it and I'm [/like], "Wait, don't... you'll catch my illness!"

[MikeAndMolly]

I kiss my girlfriend when she's sick. I figure I'm probably getting it anyways, so might as well not worry about it.

[Natattack21]

I mean, if they had an incurable disease, and it was passed only though saliva/blood... NO.

But, If they have a head cold, or virus. It's whatever. You're already breathing the same air, might as well kiss the guy.

[witherwing]

Depends on what they have, but for example flu doesn't transmit through kissing, so I definitely could.

[sunrays1]

Are you stupid of course you can catch a cold/flu from kissing

[witherwing]

I just read an article yesterday that said that the flu actually transmits through eyes and nose rather than the mouth. When you're kissing someone nothing (hopefully) goes into your eyes or nose. The virus doesn't live well in the saliva, so it's unlikely you get sick from kissing.

[Vflores1994]

As a medical professional, you can get the flu through kissing. 🤦‍♀️

[betaTester]

@Vflores1994 maybe she wasn't referring to mouth kissing 😏

[JustAsking_1991]

Depends how much I care for them, what they are sick with and how sick
I would give a peck/smooch.

If it's something really minor and no mucus involved i would use a little tongue or just the lips.

Depends who, depends what Illness etc. Like my kiddo I kiddo and husband etc

[madhatters4]

it would depend if if what they were sick with was contagious and whether or not i felt i could risk getting sick. i have certainly kissed sick people. i have also avoided kissing sick people

[ATuairiscean]

Depends - If I was with them and they had the flu - We would probably agree to hold off - I think outside that you have to ask what type of "Sick" it is so I said Maybe

[spunkygiraffe]

If they are contagious, only maybe. Depends how serious their illness was. Measles, the flu, NOPE! A common cold, chicken pox, MAYBE!

[JxrdN]

No, what are you gaining out of kissing a sick person? Besides illness of course

[evm987]

As long as it's not a stomach bug, I'd go for it. If stomach... well, I'd still give him a kiss on the forehead/cheek

[Factshurt90]

Yea. I kiss the cheeks or forehead. I don’t have weak immunity as of yet. So I haven’t gotten sick because someone in the house was.

[Miristheiss]

No, not on the lips.

Is purposefully trying to catch whatever someone else has some sign of love now?

[Didja_Like_That]

I've done it many times and still haven't gotten sick.

[Malita55]

Yes if they are my SO and its not something awful like the flu

[Dark93]

Depends if the sickness is contagious or not how close I was to them. If it was like my wife and she was dying from something contagious I would kiss her and risk infection just to have that last kiss.

[dreamstar72]

Sure if you loved them enough, however under extreme conditions probably no

[just_wondering_01]

Depends on the kind of sick, how much I care about them and what kind of kiss

[MrKinktastic]

Sick with what? If its my girlfriend there's a 99% chance I'm already exposed to it.

[SammyGurl]

I've kissed my husband when he was sick, so I guess I'd have to say yes.

[Drener]

Yes it doesn't matter if my boyfriend is sick or not I would still kiss him I love him way to much

[ImSoSquishy]

yes, then we can both be sick together, cuddle under the same blanket and be cute

[Tomblebee]

I would if i was and i didn't lik ethem that much and they asked for it :)

[LuvAsh]

I most likely wouldn't cuz i dnt like getting sick. But I love to care for people so i would do everything i can to make them feel better.
