If someone has bad breath or horrid B.O. do you say anything?!


Question: Or other things like bogeys hanging out of their nose or a big stain on the back of their trousers, etc.? Do you tell them or just try to keep it to yourself? I told this bloke his breath was making me break out in a cold sweat and he got all pissed off at me. But I'd want to know if I was smelling the place up, you know???

You could just do the less obvious thing and offer a breath mint, a piece of gum, etc. If they decline, you should say "No, please take one" or "I think you should reconsider".

Try that or hold your nose, make a gagging sound and say "Dude - what did you have for breakfast, crap?" or "What crawled in your mouth and died?" or something equally extreme to make your point.

B.O. is slightly different matter IMO as culturally some do not bathe to the same standards that you might consider appropriate.

Better to be offended than offensive!!

Good luck!

No way would I have the courage to tell anyone that. Boogers, or anything wrong that can be fixed I'd tell to keep them from embarrassing themselves. But no way would I tell them about bad breath or body odor.

if its breath i pull out a piece a gum and eat it then ask if they want one to.

Don tell anyone or they will hate you

well see now, that depends. For a friend, yes i would tell them. definitely.
For a complete stranger..... i may say something about a booger or a spot on the bum of their trousers..... but B.O and bad breath is where i draw the line. Truthfully....... i usually just smile and hold my breath............. then tell someone else about it. Rofl. Hey, that's honest.

:P
?

It would matter how well i knew the person

bad breath is one thing, but if somebody just stinks, i try to avoid smelling them altogether. i have stunk before and i don't like it when people tell me.

i probably stink right now, so...yeah

i have before but more often have not..the closer you are to someone the easier it is i think..

i would if it was like my best friend, or if people were making fun of them! but i would try not to sound mean about it.

No. I buy them some breath mints.

I'll tell them about stains on their clothes, or something hanging out their nose, but not bad breath or B.O. I remember one morning I was in line at Wal-Mart, and a customer told the cashier that she needs to brush her teeth and her breath stinks. I felt bad for her because I could tell she had hurt her feelings and she was embarrassed. The woman that said it looked like a total bit**, like she got out of bed in a bad mood.
