I voted yeah, but very little kissing/touching. If I'm the sick person, I really don't even feel like having sex - even if it's just a cold. But when my partner is sick, he wants it even more. I don't want to get sick myself, but I like the aspect of making him feel a little better.
If your lover has a cold/ is sick, would you still want to sleep with them?

I'd sleep with a partner if they are sick. I'd be near them anyway with taking care of them.
But if I was the one who was sick, I'd rather stay away from a partner so they don't get sick too.

I've actually had sex during pneumonia! My kids and I somehow got what was probably Pertussis about 3 or 4 years ago, and it turned into pneumonia for all of us but one of my daughters (My Man didn't get it, of course.)

Depends how sick they are...if it's just a cold, sure, if it's pneumonia - yeah, not so much.
We were sick for about 10 weeks or more. I'm not going 10 weeks without sex. I'm not going a week without it. Pertussis, especially if it evolves into pneumonia is a very long lived respiratory infection. (We weren't hospitalized, although my little one was close.)
Yes, our sex life was impacted. We didn't have sex nearly as often as we usually do, as I was not feeling well, and at the peak of it, was in NO condition to have sex. Plus, I had three really sick kids to take care of, while I was sick myself. But, on the days when it wasn't really bad (which happens with long respiratory infections) we did have sex.
A lot of the time, it made me feel better. It also helped break up some of the stress of taking care of really sick kids night and day.

I love my baby the most when he is sick. He gets this little cute voice when he is. I am always like awwwwwwww. I love him so much so regardless of his condition I am always glued to him.

My guy and I give each other colds all the time. We just don't care, we can't help but kiss each other... and that just leads to more
05/22/2011
It depends on the kind of cold and how long they've had it. And I'll pass on the kissing, breathing in the face stuff. I don't want it but it's worth the risk.
05/22/2011
We still have sex when one of us is sick, but only if the other wants to.
05/22/2011
Unless one of us is really sick, a little cold won't stop us. There is usually a lot less kissing involved in those cases, but not much else changes.

wouldnt bother me, if felt up to it

Who would want to hear sniffling and sneezing while having sex. Don't forget the snot train you might have to wipe off your face. Seriously, Would you still want to have sexual encounters with your partner if they are sick? *explain*

I would have sex with my partner if they were sick, but I leave it entirely up to them at that point. Some people cannot deal with sex when they're sick, they're too out of it. If I was really needing to have sex, then I'd use them regardless, but I try to be understanding.

If it is a gastrointestinal infection NO! I will sleep somewhere else.

Same here, P'Gell.

We'll still share the same bed, just no hugging, kissing or lovemaking.
05/23/2011
we just sleep on the opposite side of the bed. but it wouldn't matter because wed get each other sick anyways.
05/23/2011
By the time one of us is showing the signs, we have already been exposed to whatever is ailing them, so I wouldn't have a problem with it. However, my wife when sick really doesn't like to have sex, so I don't pressure her. When I am sick, I usually get hit hard and fast; so I am usually so physically exhausted i can't hardly move.

If we're talking H1N1, then hell yeah, stay away from me. But when it's common cold, we're going to end up contracting it from the other no matter what. My immune system is just like that, and so is his. So we saw screw it!
05/24/2011
sleep with.for better or not.or something like that.
05/24/2011
We'll kiss shoulders etc but not on the lips.
Of course if one is too sick to have sex, then we just don't. I mean, you don't have a lot of energy when you are sick most the time, so sex is usually out of question. But if sex is a go, then it's all good, just not kissing on the lips.

Usually if Im sick I'm not going to feel like doing it anyway, but when the crazy symptoms die down a bit (maybe after some cold meds) then it wouldn't bother me to be intimate with my partner. I've never actually seen snot run outta his nose so it's just a little sniffling and coughing. Doesn't bother me, but I wouldn't want to do heavy kissing because I'd like to not get sick! Lol
05/25/2011
Even if I don't sleep with him, I am probably bound to get sick any way. I only avoid sleeping with my partner when he's coughing loudly. This just happened. Then I got sick and I didn't want to wake him up so I remained on the couch. If I woke up early, I snuggled for a while, though. It's too sad to be separated so long. We did have sexual relations while sick. Sometimes we can't, though. There is a point where you just don't feel well enough!
05/25/2011
I've done it in the past & got sick myself every damn time, even without kissing & lots of touching. Will not be doing that again.

if my bf was sick, i'd take care of him while wearing a sexy nurse costume. a little motivation for him to get better sooner. plus, whenever my bf has a cold, he won't go anywhere near me b/c he doesn't want to get me sick.
07/02/2011
Doesnt matter if i sleep with them or not, if theyre sick im going to be sick next week. May as well have as much fun getting sick as possible.
07/16/2011
I'd attempt it, at least. Though if it's a runny nose or cough, maybe just doggy style. If they're queezy, then nothing. Not exactly smart to introduce them to steady rocking motions if they have a dicky tummy.
07/16/2011
If my partner is sick, I stay the hell away and I expect the same when I am sick!
07/16/2011
Im always gettin my hubby sick so only fair trade.
