| How do I tell my date his breath is awful? Posted: 7/8/2007 12:56:09 PM | ^^^^LOL, now that's funny, I think Belgarion might have said the same thing on page one though.
This is a tough issue, but I think stinky breath truly is, "just the tip of the iceberg" and I'm too young to go down in the Titanic.... you can't make someone care about themselves if they don't care enough to do it themselves. If they don't care about that, what else don't they care about!!!! | |

| How do I tell my date his breath is awful? Posted: 2/29/2008 5:17:19 PM | The thing that nobody has mentioned - that when people are nervous, it is a scientific fact that their breath smells. Ask any policeman that is questioning somebody - the person is nervous and his breath stinks. We emit something when we become nervous - just like some people sweat when nervous. Maybe the guy is nervous trying to get to know you, and it is not a usual occurrence. Time will tell. Or maybe he had garlic or a Cesaer salad for dinner .......depends on if it is all the time.
Just tell him nicely- no other way. | |

Chronic bad breath is usually indicative of chronic pyorrhea or some other chronic medical condition. It's an indicator that this guy hasn't been taking good care of himself for years (regular dental checkups; seeing a periodontist; getting root planing, etc). There is no quick way to fix him. At the point he's at now, brushing only helps for 15 minutes at a time, and gum/mints only help while he's using them. As soon as he spits the gum out, the breath will be as bad as ever.
There's nothing you can do, OP. Stop seeing him and find someone who is taking better care of himself. Even if you were to tell this guy point-blank and he immediately went to a periodontist, it would take weeks or months to begin to ameliorate his pyorrhea. I don't think you'll want to put up with that in the meantime. Write him off. | |

| How do I tell my date his breath is awful? Posted: 2/29/2008 6:02:58 PM | I usually just pick up one of my cats gently, holding them face to face with my date and tell them "this is what your breath smells like."
Works every time.

| How do I tell my date his breath is awful? Posted: 2/29/2008 6:23:41 PM | EEEEEWWWWW!!!!!!!........That is like pulling down your panties and sticking your ass up to them and saying....this is what your breath smells like..........
OT.......Always have mints or "tic-tac's" around when with others, and if there is a problem, take one out, put it in your mouth and also offer it to the offender, and if they say "no thank you".......you say.......Please and thank you......
Just my opinion........  | |

| How do I tell my date his breath is awful? Posted: 2/29/2008 6:34:57 PM | I would give the response of ...."here is a tic tac the 1 1/2 calorie breath mint....
If you like him say that it was so you could kiss him.... If you do not like him then really it does not matter... You could say it any way you want to... | |

| How do I tell my date his breath is awful? Posted: 2/29/2008 6:49:42 PM | | OP...remember the old Scope commercials leaving a bottle next to his toothbrush. You can use that approach or just come out with it and in a joking manner say gee whiz...your breath could knock a buzzard off a $@#t wagon...so no kissing allowed. Buy him Tic Tacs, Breath Assure, many many other helpful ways...maybe pop a Tic Tac in your mouth and stuff one in his too. No real easy way to get around it. Maybe you could wrestle him to the ground and brush and floss his teeth for him...never know might be the best approach. Schedule a dental cleaning appointment for him and go with him to it. | |
