Is it a turn-off if your girlfriend’s breath smells like food for like 30 minutes after eating or is it normal? Would you kiss her?

I dated a girl that smoked. It never really bothered me. One night she had some mouthwash that she used because she heard that people did not like to kiss smokers. The mouthwash was worse than the smoking.
I doubt that food would bother me either.

I don't like it very much and had to gently end making out sessions sometimes if the dinner was very garlicky. I can mind some subtle food taste but not the strongest ones like I can tell exactly what she ate from the kiss. I always chew breath mints after but rarely found women with the same courtesy.

[Fruzsi]

Would you judge her?

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

What do you mean by judge in this context? I mean I would judge that she has a garlic breath after dinner and possibly not aware of it. I wouldn't think she's a bad person or anything like that; just what the evidence suggests to me. I also come from a scientific background so I wouldn't assign 100% certainty to such an assessment; there might be some probability that she's aware of it but doesn't care, for example (although I think that would be worse, and would generally estimate a higher probability that she's not aware of it).

she has to brush teeth like any person

having smelly mouth isn't good

let alone having it for 30mins

[Fruzsi]

Would you judge her?

[laly520]

I won't judge

[Tim2nice]

No. If the smell is too strong for my stomach I’d get some breath mints/chewing gum for her. If I like her enough we’ll work around small problems like this

[aceleon]

i rather not have it like this, as long as it is not ice cream or chocolate or any kind of dessert but no food please.

[Fruzsi]

Would you judge her?

[aceleon]

judge? no, get repulsed? naturally.

[Fruzsi]

What do you mean? So u think she is disgusting?

[aceleon]

no, i think kissing people after eating and not brushing your teethor at least chewing some gum is disgusting.

[Mpodere]

not for me! you can't always have fresh breath it's natural... I would kiss her without problem. it is the same for you?

[Fruzsi]

I agree, because I eat like 7 times a day in small amounts (3 meals just divided into 7) so I can’t really brush my teeth 7 times a day, but of course if I eat certain foods, then I will chew gum

[TheSpaceGnome]

Restaurants intentionally make food smell so strong that you can smell it blocks away, because it attracts people to go buy their food.

So as long as the food smelled good, then its a plus, not a negative.

[JacobJordan]

Long as it doesn't smell like something died and crawled into her mouth I am fine

[Anonymous]

It's weird and easily avoidable

But nothing can turn me off enough to not give her a kiss

[Fruzsi]

How do you avoid it? Do you chew gum everytime you eat?

[Opinion Owner]

Me? I carry a Toothpaste in my jacket lol..
But washing your mouth well after eating or yeah, chewing gum can easily help

[Fruzsi]

Would you judge her?

[Opinion Owner]

No never!

[TheSpaceGnome]

Toothpaste breath is horrid, but then I hate how mint smells and tastes... so... 🤷🏻

Figured I'd just mention that to point out how it's not always the prefered solution.

[SotiCoto]

Depends what she has been eating, obviously.

[ThebestIndian]

You might be the most beautiful woman on earth. But, you are a 1/10 if you don’t smell good

[Fruzsi]

But what if its after eating out at a restaurant and you don’t have a toothbrush?

[Fruzsi]

Would you judge her?

[ThebestIndian]

Nope, I wouldn’t judge at that point of time

[Drew-1990]

Depends what food?

[Fruzsi]

Hot dog. Would you judge her?

[Drew-1990]

I would not judge but I'm not sure how I would feel about it at that moment about kissing

[Nice222]

It’s normal. And depends on what she eat.

[karekaaaa]

Yess i did that before

[Emanon25]

It’s bad

[Fruzsi]

Why? Isn’t it natural for breath to smell like food after eating? Would you judge her?

[Emanon25]

It is food smell but it’s better to brush the teeth.

[Fruzsi]

But what if you are not at home and can’t brush? And by the way would you judge her?

[Fruzsi]

Would you judge her?

[Emanon25]

No need to judge her

[shortster]

It is normal
