I’ve got the flu: fever, cough, sweats, and a nose that won’t stop running. Still, my partner insists on sleeping next to me, saying they don’t care about getting sick because “love conquers all.”

And it got me thinking: what’s the real limit of this kind of devotion?

Flu → fair enough.
Norovirus → still together, even if it means syncing bathroom trips?
Pink eye → do you put up with sticky eyes, or is that when you move to the other room?

I’m curious: have you ever shared a bed with your partner while they were sick? How did it turn out?
