Hi - I Was Wondering If You Could Clarify Something
Hi - I was wondering if you could clarify something for me. I am a 40 year old male. If I have the following intimate relations with a woman that has infectious mononucleosis , can I get the virus?
Kissing - no Oral Sex - Yes (not protected) - a lot of saliva happened Vaginal Sex - Yes (condom)
Considering I never kissed the woman, and had a condom on during all vaginal sex and only went without a condom during oral sex, can she have spread infectious mononucleosis to me?
I ask because she found out she had it after we were intimate, and since it was a one-time thing between us, she had the courtesy to reach out and let me know. She confirmed she got infected 6 weeks prior to us meeting (she was able to identify the person she got it from).
But like I said, I never actually kissed her - not even once.
