is ok for you to share your toothbrush to your partner?

for emergency purposes just like what u had, it's ok but please dont make it a habit. of course, that was really touchy. i should know, i can relate to u somehow, haha! anyway, u were saying that u dont usually do it and that was the only time u did that, in which case, in general, there is an exception to the rule and that was it. enjoy! :)

Well, I have done that also before with my past partner. Whenever I forgot to bring my toothbrush she is always willing to let me use hers. But then she always told me to not make it a habit since it's not good to always share personal belongings especially those used for hygienes. I guess she's right so I always make it a point not to forget bringing my own. lol =)

I would share my toothbrush with my boybriend of 8 years in an emergency only! I know everyone is thinking but you kiss him so whats the big deal? It is not the same as kissing at all when you brush your teeth your gums get scratched and they bleed even if you do not see any blood there are microscopic scratches that will be open and you can catch diseases WAY more easily than by kissing if you are sharing a toothbrush with someone you can get an infection or a disease that you cant catch just with saliva.

Yeah, if he is not greedy enough to share it with me, but I am already immune with his smell and so the same things with me. Whether, I have not yet brush my teeth or brush it already. It really doesn't matter. Thus, I could test his love for me despite having not brush my teeth..lol..

I have done it before myself. The thing is that bacteria can be very tough and just rinsing a toothbrush is not going to get rid of them. The next person who brushes is going to pick up those germs, maybe nothing happens but things can. I also think it is very juvenile if the sharing becomes a regular routine. It's not proving ones love or trust for the other at all. If that all there is to prove in a relationship in such a way, that relationship will fail. Sharing a toothbrush is like saying, "put this in your mouth if you love me". For me, I'm thinking...what's next?

was that your way of winning him. honestly your plan worked and for now i know you are at peace with yourself for having shared with him his belongings but on the other side sharing toothbrushes, towels and other personal effects are not good. you may contract a disease. please always remember to carry yours next time. you must be a nice person can we be friends?

I don't mind to share my toothbrush with my spouse. Actually we have shared many things together. Such as when we have the travel, we often share the towels and so on. I love China

since it is our partner i think that it will be alright. if we kiss our partner what difference does it make if we share our toothbrush not unless our partner does not have a good oral hygiene. but if your partner is taking care of his mouth then we don't need to worry. and i think that it is kinda sweet to do that. but of course we should have separate toothbrush and only share for some occasion when we forget to have our tooth brush.

It's okay as long as you share it with your bf or hubby. Maybe it's yucky coz it cleans the dirt in his mouth but you also do the kissing, tongue kiss and you share germs, so that's still the same. Anyway,i think he cleans his toothbrush very well. I do share my hubby's toothbrush when i forget mine to take with me.

well i think it's ok when you use yr bf's toothbrush. 'cause you 2 will be together for long time and he lend you his toothbrush can be improve that he loves you and wants you to share what his own...just like what you've said it was so sweet then...

Eww... that would be gross, even if she's my wife. I'll tell her to get her own brush! heehee!

I don't think you should share your toothbrush with your partner...although there's nothing wrong with it in the long run because you kiss so you are getting eachother's germs anyway...but your toothbrush cleans the nasty stuff out of your mouth, and I don't want to use the thing that just got the yucky stuff out of someone's mouth...I think it's yucky....

Hygienically speaking you should not share your toothbrush to anybody. Yes you do kiss but there are some infection that can be transmitted to your or his toothbrush (gum infection or what). Yes it might be sweet but technically no.

Haha, I guess its alright ocassionally for situations like this but obviously not everytime. Since sharing toothbrushes is unhygenic and dentists do say never to share toothbrushes, cos you do not know what germs will be transmitted yeah? On the other hand, I think its a sweet gesture from your bf ^^

I once allowed my bf use mine because he needs to. However, we bought one the next day. Well, toothbrush is a personal thing which we cannot lend to anyone for hygienic purpose. Yet, circumstances dictates or requires sometimes like your example. So, I guess it is understandable. Once is enough.

No one should ever share a tooth brush .Your mouth is a place full of bacteria ,saliva and other cultures for your mouth only. Yes we swap spit when kissing but this is different.We don't get the bacteria from a kiss. For the safety of you and your partner, use your finger next time.Its better than chancing a problem down the road.

amyson ask your dentist what he or she thinks of that and they will'tell you love is great but you still should not use anybody else's toothbrush. His germs may not be compatible with your mouth, at all, and why spread germs like that. no never use anyone else's tooth brush.they are toocheap you can afford to both have on of'your own. good hygeine is good hygeine.

hi amyson! good day to you my friend... Good for you that he let you borrow his toothbrush .. For me if I am that situation I will buy toothbrush in the store.I am married now and we don't even use each others toothbrush I find it dirty even if it is my husband already. And it's not advisable I think.lol! GOD BLESS xchyler

hi amy, and now he is your husband already.. both of you ended very happy.. well in that case, for me personally it's not right to let your partner use you personal things.. that's why we call it personal and private.!! yes you love each other so much but using the toothbrush is a no no to me.. yes we kiss and we exchange that hhmm there, but the toothbrush maybe no.. .. janebeth.

It's not hyghenic and it may be a turn of to your partner.
