I havent gotten a cold since I was like five I think. So I never get a cold because to be honest I hardly ever get sick.
 
I've never caught a cold before or had the flu. My doctor always mentions how healthy I am. But, when I do become ill, its usually minor and yes, it is during the winter.
 
Only in the Winter, but that's normal
 
I can get sick at any point during the year. I've had more summer colds than anything else, which in itself is pretty sad. ._.; A lot of it is from my job, where I look after kids and if one of them's sick and I'm not careful, I can get sick, too. So far, I've been very lucky and I disinfect like hell in there, but... it's still really gross, sometimes, the kids who come in with colds and cough all over the place. :x
 
It is totally random... I don't get sick that often but when I get colds it is often because it is spreading like the plague...
I almost never get the flu, I only caught it once or twice, possibly but not likely thrice...
 
I don't think I've ever had a cold. XD I get randomly sick once or twice a year, but it's usually from allergies.
 
I never catch a cold, ever since I spend a lot of time outside during the winter. So my immune system built up over time. I guess since I am also exposed to a lot of germs at work (kids, nasty people, anything).

The only time that I get sick is when I get my allergies during spring. They kill me, since I'm not used to being sick.
 
I tend to get colds at any time of year, and quite a lot of them too. I don't know why, I try to keep myself as healthy as I can but I still catch lots of colds.

I think I have a clue as to why... >.> (I'm thinking of all the people who come into their classes coughing and spluttering all over the desks... then next class I sit down there to write...) College is like a virus paradise. Ah, maybe another clue is that as a kid I was never exposed to many germs so my immune system never got a chance to develop (actually I take that back I remember eating crisps off the ground when I first started primary school... eew, don't ask why, I think I was just hungry)... I hope it's still not too late to build it up. I do get dirty when I go outside and sometimes forget to wash when I get back in to eat so... I hope I don't get too sick... then again the worst I ever get are human-spread mildly irritating cold viruses...
 
It's usually when by some chance someone passes theirs onto me, that's how I've gotten my colds recently as well. In other words, I don't start having sneezing fits unless someone sneezes on me.
 
Sometimes during the cold days of the summer…or when I eat too much ice cream lol. But I hardly ever get colds… how does the saying go again?
 
When do I get a cold? Why, when germs get into my body, of course!

...that doesn't exactly have a set time when it happens, but it's quite infrequent.
 
Catching a cold is more linked to how often you stay inside than the temperature of your surroundings

I usually do not get sick actually. I do have seasonal allergies in Spring though.
 
I usually don't catch a cold, unless I get the virus from someone. Coincidently, I'm suffering from a mild cold now, and my friend just told me that he said he probably passed it to me since we sit near each other during class and all. Other than that, I live in a tropical climate, so we don't experience winter, so there's probably no other way to get a cold anyway. XD;
