I'm not enitrely sure but, I think you can't get mono from kissing someone who isn't infected. The big thing about mono is that it's contagious and it can spread quickly. But if you kiss someone who isn't infected, chances are that your not going to be infected either. If you think about it, if you don't have mono now and you've kissed lots of guys before who you know were uninfected then it's probaly safe to keep kissing. But if you do think you have it, it's safest if you go see a doctor about it.

No, you can only get mono from the saliva or other body fluids of another human being. No saliva would exchange from a kiss on the neck so you would not contract the illness.

No, many people are already immune to the virus that causes mono, and even then, only about 30-50% of infections will produce symptoms.
