How much despise: The answer depends on what lengths you go to in order to avoid germs. How many times a day do you wash your hands or use sanitizer? How often do you do laundry. How do you feel shaking people's hands or touching things in new places. How many things do you consider having germs? Is this increasing? These are some questions to ask yourself. Go talk with someone to get a clear answer.
