Do you think it's easy it's easy to tell someone that is notaware they smell or have some funny odour that they actually do smell?

Re: How Do You Tell Your Partner They Have Mouth And Body Odour? by Amotolongbo(f):
Just tell him/her to go and brush if it’s mouth odour or to go and shower if it’s body odour and constantly remind him of using deodorant

I won't have the chance to tell her because someone with that problem CANNOT be my partner.

Filth attracts filth. For the partner to have mouth odour means the person who selected has the same trait. The person should fix him or herself and the partner will follow suit.

If it’s the person’s natural state, there is no way it will not be fished out with time. There is no way you’ll spend a weekend with such person and not discover. My opinion stands; filth attracts filth.

Mouth odour and body odour are poor grooming characteristics, not bad habits. Bad habits are things like not flushing toilets after use, talking while eating and not greeting. There is a difference.

😂 you are confused, some people can go a whole a day without having their bath cos they are indoor, what category will u place them? bad habits or poor grooming?... Also ,u mean u will get to know about that just a weekend together during courtship when both parties are still trying to act all fresh and frosh?
Re: How Do You Tell Your Partner They Have Mouth And Body Odour? by kpankpangolo: 8:19pm On Jul 29, 2025
Kobojunkie will debate with you all day. I’ve made my opinion known. I don’t care to defend it.

Of course, it's normal to walk away from a debate when it becomes clear that your opinion doesn't really hold water.
And again, it's just your personal opinion ,you don't have to defend it. Thank God you're not the authority on what's right or wrong."

It is not easy but it must be done and in the politest of ways too. Many times, a simple brushing of one's teeth will not make the problem go away, and this can happen to any one of us. It becomes very important, then, to ensure we are informed on the many possible causes of bad breath. (Bad habits or poor grooming are not the only reasons for bad breath.) This way, we don't go in assuming it is exactly for the reasons we think in our tiny minds. undecided

Right now, I know my breath is bad. I do brush and floss, but it's mainly because I have not seen my dentist for my regular cleaning for a very long time now. So, whenever someone complains, I let them know that I already have an appointment to see a dentist for a cleaning soon, and smile. That typically puts the person at ease. grin

When people are sure that your intention is good, you can tell them things like this and they wont feel insulted. The realest relationship is one that is built on foundational structures such as being a safe space, honesty and truth.

Most importantly, don't just tell them the faults, but profer solutions to overcome it. With every finger you use to point at a fault, use the others to correct it.

Very simple.
Pick out one of their dresses that has an odour and bring it to their nose for them to smell and say, "xyz,how about we do something about this?".

I suggested this to a friend whose gf had vagina odour. During a make out session,deep one finger in there and bring it to her nose to smell and say, "honey,let's do something about this".

If you can't tell them, then you shouldn't be their partner.

COMRADES, I don't think there's anything wrong telling your partner about their weaknesses, faults or shortcomings
Re: How Do You Tell Your Partner They Have Mouth And Body Odour? by Godsonkemz(m): 10:08pm On Jul 30, 2025
I can't even have a partner with a mouth odour to start with because I like kissing.

Re: How Do You Tell Your Partner They Have Mouth And Body Odour? by MemoriesAndMe:
Buy him or her toothpaste, toothbrush and mouthwash as a gift for mouth odor. Cologne, deodorant, soap and sponge as gifts for body odor.

Re: How Do You Tell Your Partner They Have Mouth And Body Odour? by Mariangeles(f): 10:19pm On Jul 30, 2025
Just so you know, if you don't brush your mouth last thing before going to bed, your breath definitely stinks. Yeah!
Re: How Do You Tell Your Partner They Have Mouth And Body Odour? by RevenuesBoost(f): 10:20pm On Jul 30, 2025
If he has a bad breath:
"Babe, have you brushed your teeth today?"

He'll surely answer yes or no and check his breath by himself.


If he has body odour:
"Babe, have you had your bath today?

He'll surely answer yes or no and will certainly know the reason behind the question.

If you are tired of the relationship, just bounce. Don't look back, just step.

Tell the person before you marry them so they can think about it before saying I do
