How do I nicely offer a breath mint?

Question

I have a friend named Timmy McBackwards.... He eats through his butt and poops through his mouth... Everytime I try to have a conversation with him, his breath smells like dookie.. How can I nicely offer him a breath mint? I don't want to hurt his feelings!!

Answer 1

Well what I would do is make light of it, say something like 'wow sometimes when I eat (insert food here) my breath smells like the bottom of a budgie cage.' Then have a mint yourself and offer him one at the same time.
I agree with the above poster though, often bad breath is a symptom of something more serious and he needs to go and see a dental hygenist

Answer 2

You can do your friend a huge favor if you can get him to get to the root of the breath problem. It can be from very poor dental health, or even digestive problems. So be frank with Timmy and let him know and maybe he will do something about it. A mint is a fix that will last for only minutes.

Answer 3

you don't.......breath mints and mouth washes are drug co. hype...they are only cover ups not lasting .
He has a serious problem and needs serious help starting with a medical ck up. Then probably a diet change, and most
likely emzime supliments to help digestion.
But the most commonly bad breath problem is from bad teeth
Be a Real Friend and have that discussion friend to friend

Answer 4

Just pull them out of your purse, take one yourself and then hold it out for him. That's just sharing, not being rude. I do that for my husband sometimes.
