I was diagnosed with mono almost exactly 2
years ago...about 4/5 months after i was
diagnosed i started dating this guy...and
about a month into the relationship HE
contracted mono, he got better, and we
kept dating/kissing for a year after
that.
We then broke up...and about 2 months ago,
(1 year and approx. 10 months after i was
diagnosed) i started dating my (now)
boyfriend..we have been dating for about 2
months...and HE just found out that he now
has mono.
I don't understand how i've given both of
the guys I am/have dated mono, after two
years?!? Is it because I keep kissing the
guys I give mono to which enables the
disease to stay in my system longer?
I feel so bad for my boyfriend...I just
don't want to keep transferring mono to
every boyfriend I have my whole life, how
can I make it stop?!??!?

When you get mono you get it from the
Epstein Barr virus. Once the mono is out
of your system the virus stays in your
body but is inactive. So anyone who
hasn't had mono that comes in contact with
your saliva can get it. If your worried
about it I would suggest only kissing
people who have had mono.
