what do i do if my bf smells?

Question

p.s. hes sensitive and dramatic

Answer 1

If he smells bad, is sensitive and dramatic maybe you should just consider replacing him with a more secure man who knows how to use a bar of soap.

Answer 2

"He's sensitive and dramatic"
So does that mean you're prepared to enjoy the smell of his B.O.?

I'm guessing not. You need to let him know in a nice way, in private. Don't tell him he always smells. Let him know, "P.U., you stink today sweetie!" and be silly or happy about it. You know what I mean.

Chances are he doesn't even realize it. Most guys don't. They can't smell their own B.O.

Don't get him cologne, it just covers it up. But maybe get him a nice manly wash from Bath & Bodyworks or something, a couple of days AFTER you've mentioned it so it's not like, "You smell, here, wash, now!"

Or even have him go with you to pick something out that he likes the smell of. And if he goes for the regular scented washes instead of the manly, don't hassle him. Better that he smells from Jasmine or Vanilla than B.O.!

Just be nice about it and I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

Answer 3

Get him the new Tag or Axe - tell him you LOVE the way it smells and it would turn you on if he wore it. Make sure you choose one you honestly like. You can even buy the trial/travel size and tell him it was a free sample someone gave you.

If it persists, hopefully you can get comfortable enough in the relationship to say "Babe, you might want to try a different soap, cuz yours isn't lasting throughout the day."

Answer 4

Actually I was in the same situation you are in one time. At first I was too embarassed for him to say anything but eventually I took a couple of sniffs and then turned to him and said "honey, you know I love ya but you gotta go shower". I was nervous as heck when I said that but I hid my nervousness by keeping my voice light and almost joking. His response to me was "oh honey, i'm sorry, I was in such a rush to see you that it must have slipped my mind lol:) Anyway he took the hint and took care of the problem. I even dropped hints about what some of my favorite colognes are and stuff.

Answer 5

Get a new man. Men and women were made to be attracted to each others scents. They are not smelly to you, even if they are to others, if they are meant for you. Your chemistry doesn't jive, so your kids would be smelly too. Sorry honey, but there's more out there and ummmmm some of them smell really good. Yummy VS. Yucky-----you pick!

Answer 6

Be sneaky. I had a friend's gf do this: for some occasion, birthday, or even just a small gift, buy him some cologne and suggest he at least try to wear it cause it cost you a lot of money. Guys hate wasting money, and if its at least decent smelling, he'll give it a try.

Answer 7

Tell him the truth. If he gets dramatic, it's not your fault.

I know yo don't want to hurt a person's feelings, but do you really want to be with a guy who forces yo uto walk on egg shells all the time? Seems like it would be exhausting to me.

Answer 8

When my ex-husband came to bed stinky one time, I went out to the kitchen and took a big mouthful of garlic powder and held it in my mouth for a minute. Then I went back to bed. He got the idea and showered all the time after that.

Answer 9

Depends pon what he smells of, B.O, Dogs, bad breath etc tell him if need be and explain why. If not buy him some deodrant & aftershave for a celebration i.e christmas or bday!

Answer 10

Buy him some good smelling body spray for men as a gift.
