I heard a program about the cause of bad breath being lack of certain carbs-
made sense to me since I've always found the breath of vegetarians really bad-
I'd look into it and see if he's eating a good mix of food- and I would tell him-
don't throw a wrench into the comfort of being with someone you like over this

Bad breath could be the result of being ALL BOUND UP!

In other words CONSTIPATION!!

Delicatley Inquire, if the one with toxic rancid breath, has had a bowel movement in the past month.

If NOT,( and be thankful his mouth is the only orifice emitting the stench)... descreatley, have a druggist discuss various laxative aids he can avail for himself.

And always remember: " true love will conquer all!"

I always have some type of breath mint in my purse. I'll just take one out, pop it in my mouth and offer them one.

Damn, one huge rotten tooth, too funny. (hence the word toothbrush?) With the money he saves on floss and tooth paste, he can afford dessert for you next time. Binaca? , they still sell that stuff?, thought that died with Hai Karate aftershave. Comparing his breath to your dogs breath is insulting to your dog .The dog has an excuse, course then again maybe this dude licks himself too.

After a meal offer him gum and say, "Try this gum, I LOVE the smell from someone elses breath!"

Try offering your date a breath mint next time, and leave behind a tooth brush and paste behind, with a dentist appt. Good luck

This was a funny forum. I was on a date recently, and during the entire 148 minutes of the movie, I thought I would gag from his foul breath It was so bad, and I didn't have any mints or gum to give him. After the movie ended, I was going to go buy him a soda to "help" matters. Thank goodness HE had a mint. Where was it all that time? When his head started dripping sweat, I knew we would not last He was a way too sensitive person, the type who you could not say anything to.

Keep a small "trial size" bottle of Listerine in your purse/pocket.....

Don't say anything.....

Spike the person's drink with the Listerine when they're not looking.....

Problem solved........

It isn't necessarily hygiene either.

Lots of illnesses cause malodorous breath as well.

The gum route is always good, anyone who's aware of the problem will be grateful, those who don't, well.... they'll get the idea.

My way of dealing with this senistive issue is to tell him about an article I just read (works for almost anything) Do you know that if you lick your wrist and wait a few seconds then smell you wrist, you can tell if your breath is fresh....isn't that amazing. Here, lets give it a whirl! Ya, I know,,,amazing.... now try it again with an extra strength piece of gum.... You're welcome....

OK. So you have offered gum, mints and mouthwash and advice and they still wont do anything about the odor..Then what? I feel if they don't want to try to keep fresh breath how is the other hygiene? Don't want to take any chances... I am in a relationship now with a man that his breath is very obnoxious, i have asked him to go to the dentist he won't go... He do not brush, he only use mouthwash. He is a really nice guy, but i will not take the relationship any further than this....Until he decides to do something about his stink breath.... I think he knows if he goes to the dentist they will pull all his teeth. I would rather deal with false washed teeth any day then dragon breath....

How do you handle ANY situation such as this, when one habit or hygiene issue keeps you from getting closer?

... first date and you're already trying to fix him? yeah, I know... just trying to help the poor guy out right? lol..

Personally, I wouldn't want to be with someone that I didn't feel was up-to-par in hygiene. It would always be an issue, so just leave him alone.

When you date old men like me most of them have dentures.. and Gee their breath stinks.. use TICK TACKS.... it helps... keep them in your pocket or purse... I also like to cary a tooth brush... after every meal i go to the bathroom and brush my teath.... buy him one also and bring it with you on your date.. They do not mind they think it is kinda a sweet and yet they never figure it out.. lol well it use to work.. for me..

We are getting old are teeth are playing games with us and if you have false teeth you can not chew gum.. it is very hard or if you have a lot of dental work done.. I can not chew gum.. so get mints... that will help...

bye.

Merely ask your date if they had onions on that Sh*t sandwich that they had for lunch. It's an easy segue to addressing the issue. You're welcome.

In a delicate situation such as this, you don't want to offend the "guilty" party, yet it's important that he gets the message.

Therefore, choose your words carefully, take his hands in yours, look into his eyes , and tactfully state: "I don't want to say that your breath stinks, but you could knock a buzzard off a shithouse."
