Just tell him that you do not want him to feel offended and that you are only looking out for him. surely he is not aware of the situation. It would bring you closer together and make him trust you more.

Honestly, morning breath is something we all have. I would just stay turned to the other side, that's what I do....when seeing him on a regular basis, offer some gum, or just mention; "Are you eating some different foods lately, your breath isn't what it used to be"...this way you aren't confrontational and you won't embarass him, (no matter how long you've been together) and just see what he says....he may take super precautions with gum/mouthwash etc...

Start telling him u read an arcticle where it said its no healthy or good to kiss/drink or eat anything widout brushing (which is by the way a fact) so : "I dont wana kiss unless I brush my teeth so that, I dont turn u off by my bad breath n pass u on some germs " n get off bed to brush but dont forget to kiss him once he is done too...he might feel gulity about kissing u widout brushing his...hope this works..

If you have been together for 3 years, and are having sex.....you should be able to tell him anything. Tell him...be gentle, but just mention that you don't like to kiss him in the morning before he brushes his teeth, as he has moring mouth. Trust me, he knows morning mouth isn't good, so you won't be telling him something he doesn't understand.

you've been together for 3 yrs??? tell him!! especially in the mornings! every1's breath stinks in the morning!! so just say 'eww morning breath' or something between those lines...When my bf has bad breath, i tell him, i blame it on what he's eaten from that day or something, if it stinks and hes close to me, ill say 'what did u eat today??' and then he'll say whatever it was and ill say 'yah, i can smell it!' lol but im not RUDE about it, but its lettin him know...if i had bad breath i would want him to tell me instead of him thinking how disgusting i am! lol but thats just me..
but yah, u should tell him instead of dealing with it all the time!! its gross!!

My husband and I have been married for 3 years.. If he has bad breath I say " your breathe smells like turd sauce, go brush your teeth" and he does the same for me! Got each others back...lol
Just politely tell him that you would appreciate it if he would use some mouth wash or something, there's really no other way to tell him.

If you've been with this person for three years and you can't tell him about his breath then there is a problem. It's not about hurting his feelings. If it were me I'd want to know. So just tell him. Hell what's he gonna do break up with you over his breath.

I really don't know but he should be taking regular visits to the dentist so that he can get his teeth cleaned and he probably needs to floss more. I feel for you because that has to be nasty and not enjoyable to kiss someone's stank mouth. YUCKKKK!!! You can tell him that you would rather be the one that tells him about his breath rather than have someone else tell him since you love him. That way it helps both of you out.

ask him if hes been eating anything funny lately because his breath is pretty bad lately. maybe altoids would be the answer. sorry hunny but you just have to come right out and say it. hell understand if you guys have been together for that long. i mean im sure hes told you some things about you that may have upset you for a little while but its for your own good and you get over it.

First - make it you -- 'Erk, honey, I feel like a mouse died in my mouth, lemme brush really quick so I can kiss you 'right'." Hop up and load BOTH your toothbrushes with paste. As you brush away, hold out his to him. Grin! Remember to deliver the kiss as positive reinforcement.
My DH used to load both toothbrushes on nights he was feeling frisky - it was a signal that he wanted to do some serious kissing.
