What the hell? I find this sooo disgusting. How do I tell him to stop without embarrasing him? Does anyone else have this problem, or am I alone in this?

It's becoming quite a turn-off...

Tell him if he doesn't stop picking his nose-his head will cave in.

Why do you have a problem with embarrassing him? Why is every one so f'ucking worried about not being 'hurtful and mean spirited' these days, to the detrement of relationships and to the point of bearing the disgust of that kind of thing instead of telling the person that "HEY, YOU F'UCKING ANIMAL, YOU'RE IN THE PRESENCE OF HUMAN BEINGS AND PICKING YOUR NOSE IS IN THE SAME CATEGORY AS PICKING YOUR A'SS, SCRATCHING YOUR BALLS, PEEING ON THE FLOOR, FARTING LOUDLY AT THE DINNER TABLE IN FRONT OF EVERYONE, ETC...IT'S UNACCEPTABLE!!! AND IT GROSSES ME OUT AND IF YOU CONTINUE TO DO IT, I WON'T BE GIVING YOU ANY P'USSY EVER AGAIN!" If your own comfort is worth less to you than embarrassing a man who has the manners of a barn animal, then how much can you possibly mean to yourself? You need to stand in front of a mirror and slap yourself for even allowing the situation to get to the point of asking this question. You are disrespecting yourself even more than your zoo-worthy boyfriend, because you know the difference, whereas he's probably clueless and unaware.
Alone? I think so because I can't think of anyone else who would hesitate to let this putrid clown know that his behavior is disgusting. Yes, you are alone.

Wow! If this is his 'courting behavior' just think what married life will be like!
Why are you afraid of embarrasing him by telling him what he is doing isn't acceptable. If you let him continue, everyone who sees him is going to regard him as a boor and a jerk.
You don't have to be rude, but do tell him that most people do that in private so others don't have to watch. If he only does when the two of you are alone, tell him that you'd appreciate it if he tended to his grooming in the bathroom, and not on the sofa.
If that doesn't work, I guess it would be too gross to suggest you go to work on your own nose while he's doing his.....

I don't have this problem but your right, what the hell buddy? Why be concerned about embarrassing him, he obviously is not concerned about what you might think if he has the balls to do this in front of you...geeze, tell him to knock it off and go blow his flippin' nose already.

The next time he tries to kiss you or tries to initiate sex, just stop him and say, "Oh honey. I can't do it right now. Everytime I look at you, I just get reminded of you sitting and picking your nose. It really turns me off. Maybe we can try again tomorrow night?"

I ve been reminding my husband not to pick his nose for 30 years. I doubt he can stop!

You just have to tell him, but even if he stops doing it in front of you doesn't mean that he's not doing it just as soon as you look away- don't wanna hold hands with that

If he does not have any more respect for you than that then ditch him, because next he will be farting and belching in front of you too. If you don't react he will also start doing these obnoxious things in front of your friends and family.

It's not how you pick your nose: It's where you put the boogers.
Hand him a kleenex, tell him if he does it in front of you, you will shoot him through the eyes with a Luger.
