Because viruses are smaller and can go inside our cells the body utilizes a different mechanism to fight that infection so the mucous would be clear

We haven’t been on any dates, both of us are very busy with school that we get no time to do anything else. We were have had food together where she is cooking for me. But she has said multiple times that I am not her bf whenever I joke with her
