Since last year, i feel like this has taken total control of my life. I dont smell my bo, nither can my family but when i am at work or at skol with friends, sometimes they keep rubbing their nose with their hands, or makin noise with their nose..i dont get it. sometimes i think its all in my head cuz i knw for a fact i dont sweat and abt smellin i cant possible smell the amount of money i spent on deodrants and perfume no one else does! i always smell perfume off myself! so my question is what do u do when therez someone there who smells really bad? wat do u do to not brethe in the bad air? or from ur experience wat kind of reaction have u seen from ohter ppl?

Answer 1

Well first off if a friend had B.O. then I'd tell her......quietly of course.....friends should be able to tell you things like that without hurting your feelings......now if I'm in a public place and a smelly person walks by me I hold my breath and I guess I might have a sour face till fresh air is back......sorry u asked. By the way, do u have pets at home? Sometimes people don't smell too good when their house smells like animals. Your best bet is to ask one of your good friends.......they'll be honest and then you'll know........Powder is good too though.

Answer 2

Ever think that maybe you're wearing too much perfume? To you and your family, the perfume might not be as strong because your senses have become used to it - this always happens - and you end up putting a ton of it on, thinking it smells as if you've put a little on.

No one likes when a person walks by them and they're enveloped in the stench of too-strong perfume. Think about it.

Answer 3

If they are touching their noses and making sounds like that they are probably trying to politley cover the smell. I have a very good friend who has terrible BO and my friends and i do fiddle with out noses to try and block out the smell and when the subject of BO comes up we try not to look her in the eye. See how they react when you bring up the topic of Bo and that should give you some idea.

Answer 4

i would say "i smell something. it's BO but i don't know where it is coming from." i wouldn't say in front of a lot of ppl you stink. i would pull the person aside privatly and say "um there is a bad oder coming from your body and its really bad. i wanted to tell you before someone embaresses you."

pretend that you smell something and ask if anyone else smells it. most likely they will say yes but not call you out on.

Answer 5

i had a friend who used to stink really bad. i could barely stand it when i was around this person. I just would hold my breath. I dont know how her boyfriend didnt notice or he didnt care.

Answer 6

I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feelings so I stay clear of them. Go see a doctor if you think you have a problem.

Answer 7

well
bo is disgusting
i don't get it, because i rarely sweat,, and i use deoderant. (dove deoderant) and it works.

but when others have bo, i stop breathing, i don't look at them, and i just smile fake
