Is Together Better?

A week ago, Jenny got sick. We tried our best to not have the germs pass to me, but as of this morning, my throat has been soar.

I'm wondering if it would have just been better to live normally instead of avoidingly, and pass the germs right away. That way, little would have been changed and we would have been sick at the same time, instead of me starting to feel sick as she is starting to feel better.

So what do you think. Would together have been better?
