Is it okay to tell my boyfriend to clip his nails?

Anonymous
My boyfriend is a neat person and everything ..He never stinks or any stuff like that .. however I made it almost clear before that nails disgust me a lot. But he continued to forget clipping them .. with the excuse that his nails were not that much long..

Anyway today I saw his nails and I got completely turned off .. I couldn't say I love you and cuddle .. and in the same time I was too afraid to hurt his feelings by telling him .. so I kept joking and keeping away from the romances.. he felt it and complained that I am cold .. I remained silent but he kept getting sadder ... I got angry and finally told him " listen .. there is a thing that I hate in people .. and you keep doing it" .. he asked " what's that" .. I didn't wanna reply .. anyway at an end he finally was like " are my nails ? " .. I said yes.

He got very embarrassed of course.. and claimed that he wants a break :) .. What did I do wrong ? He said that I should've told him straight away .. I didn't have to go round and round .. but I didn't wanna hurt his feelings .. I know he is embarrassed and all .. but am I wrong for telling him what bothers me ? or that I got turned off ? Are you guys okay with girls telling you " dude, clean up! " or " hey , clip your nails man" ? How do you girls deal with this when your boyfriends do similar actions ?

He also has an issue with food in his teeth .. his teeth are kinda away from each other so anything he eats sticks in there! .. I sometimes sleep over at his house.. and he brushes his teeth many times, but once he eats something .. the food remains there! And I don't know how to bring it up to him ? It sometimes turns me off as well when he kisses me ..

Am I over reacting ? :(
