You failed to mention whether this person is to be your "date" for the night. Is this person "hosting" the party? How do you figure it will be fun?? Do you know who is going to be there? Is there no one else inviting you? Do you hang out with the "annoying/smelly" person on a regular basis? You definitely need to get a life!! If going to a party, with someone you can't stand, is your idea of a fun Saturday night then maybe you should try doing something worthwhile - like volunteer to read to the sick children in the cancer ward of your local hospital or become involved with your local senior citizen home. Gosh - just think what will happen to your reputation if you are seen hanging out with the "annoying/smelly" person. If this is the best offer you have gotten for week (partying with annoying/smelly person) maybe you should take a good long look at yourself - maybe you are "annoying" and "smelly" also or you would be getting better invitations from better people!!

You should excuse yourself politely. Never put yourself in uncomfortable situations you can avoid, and above all don't make the person who invited you uncomfortable in their own environment. DON"T GO. However If you like the person and have enough tact, in a private conversation, you can try to find out the reason for the problem and help solve it. If they smell bad to you, they probably smell bad to other people, and you would be doing them a favor by talking sincerely and helping them resolve the issue. All this within limits and with kindness and authentic concern for the persons well being.

Since you say you are going to the party but just curious what others would do here goes. I think that it is wrong to go out on a date with someone that you do not like or have no interest in. That person could invite someone who would like them and perhaps have a good time. Nowhere in your question or in anyone else's answer did I see anyone suggest that you might be being unfair to the person who invited you by accepting. I know it is not uncommon for people to accept dates just to get to go to some event, but if you accept a date with someone you should be prepared to spend time with that person, not ditch them as soon as you are in the door and hide from them (with more attractive people) all night until time to take advantage of the ride home. If you feel like you would be embarrassed to be seen with this person then you need to decline, graciously and thank them for the invitation but you can't attend. If you decide to accept, and it appears that you already did, you should be prepared to spend time with this person and at least try to have a good time with them. You said they smelled - maybe they'll get cleaned up for the party, or if it is breath instead of B.O. you could go with breath mints prepared. Take one yourself and offer one to him! Sorry what I am saying is not what you want to hear but I vote for declining. Would you have much fun there if you don't like your date. On the other hand, ya might meet someone new! Wish we could find out how it goes!

Go to the party and dont be a snob. Perhaps the person cannot help his or her smell. If you are not enjoying the party then find a good reason to leave early. Just try and have fun.

Well if you already said yes you are kinda stuck going it would be very cruel to ditch that person now. However, make sure that you make it clear that you are not going as a date but as friends.

I know that you probably are not as thrilled to go because the person has some hygien issues, but what the heck it is One night right! Hey you never know you may have a really good time and meet some really nice people. Stranger things have happened. Go and try to enjoy!

You don't need anybody's opinion as you've already made up your mind. Just eat a lot of fireball chili before you go and keep farting around the one who smells to kill the smell at the same time keeping them away from you.

i had a friend just like that. i went to his house and found a supplement he was taking for working out with weights and it smelled exactly the same we chucked it out and then told him why . that was the end of the stink and i earned a pretty good friend. when your young you just dont know alot of things about your self it can be pretty hurtful to find out in a bad way. if you talk to this person try a heart to heart maybe something isnt right at home you might change something for them!!

when you say:a person ? it makes me think that you do not even know this person in particular or any liking to it ? if she is annoying to you ? why go ? plus the fact that you mention # they smell " ? i would not feel good to visit this person knowing i just said that about her .........i would feel dishonest about going ......
i would not go and for the reasons you just now explained here ;
my time is important and i do not waste it just to go to a party that sounds fun
i would politely refuse this invitation .
