Am I overreacting about a kiss?

Hi ladies

probably overreacting. Had been on a couple of dates with this guy, decided to have a little kiss after a few drinks on our last date.

few days later I came down with a terrible sore throat and cold - DD was suffering awfully with a cold so believed it caught it off her.

sore throat is still lingering even though me and DD are both better. My friend made a joke about perhaps catching an STD off lover boy.

however, this has become a fear and no longer a joke. I’ve never known anyone to catch something from a kiss - unless of course it’s a coldsore. Surely I’d be overreacting if I started worrying about this? (Too late I know lol).

I mean the kiss must have been awful anyway as I was ghosted the day after….

I think it’s likely you’ve just still got a sore throat after your dd having a cold. I think you need to distract your mind from anything else and remind yourself that the sore throat will go away in a few days.

You probably gave him your dd's cold and he's nursing it!

Huh? You’re worried you caught a cold from a kiss?

Huh?!!

An STD from a kiss?

110% you got a little cold from your daughter.

LOL! It’s sounds mad doesn’t it. I didn’t want to Dr Google it and my friends are making it worse telling me I’ve caught mono from a kiss! Had to come on here to stop my mind doing over time!
