Hi all, please can someone just give me some words of comfort to stop the panic.

I’ve been OK recently as regards bugs being around and not had much contact with anyone who has had the dreaded V so have kept quite calm about it. However, now my boyfriend caught a V bug from his son. It started on Monday evening when he wasn’t with me – but he was with me on Sunday and I was kissing him! He is feeling better now and called in to see me this morning before I went to work and he kissed me again! I told him I hope I don’t get it and he, not realising about my phobia, laughed it off and said it usually does the rounds in his family so I may get it and he could have been harbouring it over the weekend so it made no difference him calling in on me this morning.

Now I am really panicking as he told me he has been very ill with it and so has his son, constant V*ing all night. How can I tell myself I will not get this and be positive?
