If i have the beginning stages of bronchitis can I spread it by kissing or making out with someone? If so, how long would it take for the symptoms to appear within that other person?

Yup...germs are germs.
"The best way to avoid acute bronchitis is to wash your hands frequently and thoroughly, to sleep appropriately, and to drink lots of non-caffeine fluids. Acute bronchitis is most commonly caused by viruses or bacteria, which spread via coughing droplets in the air and/or from touching contaminated surfaces, so washing hands will help reduce this transmission of it."
SO, if they recommend washing hands to prevent getting the virus or bacteria...then kissing should be a common sense avoidance. Passing saliva will certainly pass the virus or bacteria....

I once suffered from Chronic Bronchitis. I would suffer sometimes 3 to 4 times per year! Usually when there was a major change in the pressure outside (I live in the north, and the temperature spikes and dips do wonders to chronic sufferers of bronchitis!). Each time I would get horrible hacking coughs, hoarking up green phlegm..it was so frustrating!

Bronchitis is spread by person to person contact. Kissing is very intimate contact so it is very possible to spread it by doing that. It usually takes 5-7 days to see symptoms if you have contracted it.
