Hi there, evrytime my wife and or I have flu, she refuses for us to have sex. She says that we will infect each other, is this true? I sometimes want to resort to using a condom,but she is not comfortable with us using one?please help
Dear Thabo
No she won't infect you unless you kiss each other but one does not really have the energy for sex if you feel really bad with flu - give the girl a break!
