Is it normal that my boyfriend doesn't shower before our dates..?

Okay so me and my boyfriend were hanging out right? And I realize he has a bad odor... And he doesn't shower before we go on dates... But he's an extremely good guy and all and I love him but I just don't know what to do about the smell.... How should I approach this situation?

Is It Normal?

  • I heard that Brad Pitt is the same way!! I cannot stand to smell body odor...dirty junk or dirty pussy or ANYTHING foul. Equally bad is someone using deodorant on top of funk. People like this are just gross and definitely not dateworthy. They are similar to smokers who smoke around others in that they are acting out and trying to annoy or attack people with this passive aggressive behavior. Of course they "know" they stink. Don't make excuses for them. Can you imagine yourself marrying this guy and dealing with that funk well into old age when more and more people start to smell bad???

    :0S

  • Definitely somehow get him to change his habits so that he doesn't smell. Either that or leave him. I myself couldn't be with someone who stunk.

  • Take a shower with him. Or buy him some nice smelling shower gel and say you think it smells really sexy.

  • Yeah, I'd say buy him some soap it body wash or something. Be subtle, but not too subtle it he might keep stinking

  • Spray him with a hose. I think that would be fairly appropriate.

  • You should ask him if he showers. And, then tell him it bothers you.

  • Let him know lightly that he may want to freshen up before your dates or tell him to try this new soap and buy him some or if he doesn't get the hint tell him you stink wash your crack.

  • just talk to him,,, approach him, ask him a q, ask him if there's anything he's bothered in you,, after he says answers...

    Tell him that there is something bothering you, if he can't take it,, then FUCK HIM.

  • you people are so conditioned by our society, don't you know that being attracted to someones NATURAL smell is how humans instinctually find great partners. if you don't like your boyfriends smell, maybe you don't like your boyfriend.

    • I agree. Now, if he's SUBSTANTIALLY dirty and has a really fowl smell because of that, that's different. But if its just a little natural smell, you probably just aren't that attracted to him.
