How to address hygiene issues with my boyfriend?

Question

We were having sex, and his was on top, and he just started picking his nose in front of me. He also have a bad breath most of the time, and has a very strong body odor. I don't know how to tell him without hurting his feelings.

If you don't who will?
You are bumping pee pees, since there isn't much nore personal you can get, next time tell him to shower up, wash your hair and brush your teeth, clean the boogers out of his nose and you will be waiting for him when he is done.
Otherwise no sex until he does.
Yes it may not be all that comfortable talking about it, but it seems to bother you it won't just go away.
Set the example and shower up beforehand.
Maybe no one has told him that.
Next time you are shopping help him pick out some products that he should use.

Eeeeeeeeyy yuck, personally picking your nose is an automatic break up. Bad breathe is most likely from food being caught in-between his teeth. When you brush, floss, mouthwash and drink plenty of water usually that won't be an issue. I'd just say," Babe go brush your teeth if you want kisses." Body odor you should be like,"Let's shower together" and start washing him lol. I had this same issue with my ex but the odor wouldn't come off her skin even if I washed her thoroughly. Some people just don't smell good 🤢

I'm sorry. My boyfriend has depression so it's hard for him to wash. We agree a shower once a month. Last time we didn't wash for 2 months. The smell of stale armpits makes me feel sick, so I remind him to use deodorant and wipe himself daily. It was better than him not showering at all.

You better straighten that man out and quick. Tell him straight up. If it keeps happening get the F out.

Straightforward but I don’t recommend “you Stanky, get don’t hygiene”. 👃 Iknow it’s tempting though

Lol picking nose during sex is a fetish? I never knew this also I don't know ask him what body wash he uses if he does at all & tell him you like a certain kind and always want him to wear it or something. Maybe take showers with him before u have sex? Maybe he is a dirty man & takes few showers.

For the breath I don't know make sure he brushes his teeth and if he doesn't buy him gum or maybe he simply just doesn't drink water or something lol but Sounds like he's a grown man so u may need to leave him before he gives you all kinds of infections

You need to communicate. You can’t expect him to read your mind. Tell him you don’t like it when he picks his nose and that his breath stinks.

I mean. If he has a problem would you rather him just tell you? Or hold in anger and then it just comes out and it’s unhealthy.

Also. Maybe you should wait until marriage to have sex. Especially if it doesn’t work out

The best way to circumvent this issue is to propose taking a shower together before sex. I’m personally a fan of this and it ensures that both parties are squeaky clean. Tell him you enjoy showering together before sex because it makes you feel loved etc. That’s the BEST and kindest way to solve this issue.

Lol just tell him. He can't change much if he ain't aware of it, which he probably ain't because we are more blind to our own odor.
Then they have to work on it. If not welp you can leave them because they are not trying.
Myself is lazy and depressed so my hygiene is not great but if I had a girlfriend I would try my best for her of course.

Why u sleeping with him in the first place? 🤔
Where do you Girls/Women find thse KIND of guys?
Why can't you get someone decent looking?
If i don't shower at least ince a day i can't sleep, if i don't smell the anti-perspirant before going to bed, i get up and spray it one more time, if a breath in my palm and i feel my breath stinks, i get up and "eat all the toothpaste". Wtf is wrong with ur guy? He is not even focused on what he is doing? 🤦‍♂️

Give an offer to him that you both take shower before sex and brush your teeth together this may give him a hint that something is wrong with his hygiene

chicosuave · Answer

take a bath together and tell him about his oral hygene when kissing. also tell him that you like a clean dude in bed.

FilmGuy93 · Answer

There's no good way to say something like that. Just make a comment the next time he tries to kiss you with stinky breath that he needs to brush his teeth.

TroyDT2 · Answer

Tell him. If I am with a lady and she stinks I get up, put on my clothes, and leave.
