Do you think getting a cold sore from your partner is worth it?
A conversation I had with my long distance partner:
Me: “I don’t know how long it’ll take to knock out this cold sore. We probably won’t be able to share drinks or food, or kiss”
Him: “Awww, are you sure it won’t be gone by the time we see each other?”
Me: “I don’t know, even if take this medication, it still might not be completely gone. I don’t know if I want to take the chance”
Him: “I don’t mind, we don’t see each other very often anyway.”
Me: “What if you get a cold sore from me? Trust me, you don’t want one of those, they suck”
Him: *Not convinced*
For context, we see each other a 3-4 times a year since we live across the country from each other, so I understand some of his leniency.. but he’s also tripping, I think. Sweet, but very silly
