What should I do? Deoderant Perhaps?
I have a great friend...we always talk about how we're gonna grow old together. But there's a problem. He smells extremely bad of bad B.O. I don't know how to tell him... people have come up to me and asked me to please tell him about it. I don't want to offend him...what should I do? How should I tell him?
Thanks a bunches for helping out!

Ok well he's your friend , so if you tell him more than likely he will understand. So just approach him one day *make sure its when you two are alone and can talk without interruptions* and say :Look if you weren't my friend I wouldn't say anything but I care about you and I want whats best for you. This may sound rude but you need to do something about your hygiene. Like maybe you need to find a new deodorant or something because your B.O. is really bad." Or something to that effect and if he gets mad just tell him you were trying to be honest and help him out.

Well, if I were you I would start out by just coming out and telling him. If you are really great friends he'll accept the fact that you said something to him. Although he could be a little embarassed at first he'll probably wind up being very thankful you said something. Just follow what your mind tells you to. Pick a good time to tell him. (Preferably not when he's in a bad mood) He'll be happy you told him.

That would be so hard for you to do! He will feel bad. Why not leave an annonymous note suggesting the deoderant thing? Don't tell a bunch of people, you don't want it getting back to him. He will be really embarrassed so don't mention the note if you see him with it. :)

when your talking to him maybe bring up the subject of perfues or deodarents... or shower lol. Tell him what you use and maybe have him try it (a new one of course) basically anything that will work on him. Or maybe he's not taking enough showers, reminding is always helpful.
good luck

well if you guys are really that close just kinda say it nicely or joke around alil bit about it. if he really doesnt get the hint give him a stick of deoderant cuz that isnt something you should have to get used to. <3

This is a tough issue. But I do have an idea that may help. Get him a small gift set from some deoderent brand (Axe, Old Spice etc.). Give it to him and be like "I saw this and I wanted to get it for you because its smells really good. I wasn't sure what kind you use, but it smelled hot." If it doesn't work then just sit down and be honest with him but break it to him gently. He would really appriciate it. Best of luck!

Be subtle about it, maybe you should talk about how you hate it when you sweat or smell or something like that. Do you have a brother or a cousin or something? Becuase if so buy some of that OLD SPICE body wash it smells sooo good! And tell him that your whoever(cousin, bro etc.) wears it all the time and you thought he might like it. But be nice about it and don't be forceful because he might catch on! Good Luck!

That's a tough one...lucky for you, you two are good friends. My best advice would be to tell him, at a time that seems reasonable and not to obvious, that you just bought this great new STRONG deodorant and it works really well for you. You can ask him what type he uses and if he says what kind, suggest nicely that he switch to the STRONG kind you use. My personnal recommendation is Mitchem (for men and women, 'so good you could skip a day' LOL). If he says he doesn't use deodorant, that's easier for you. Be like buddy, ya betta start! (in a cute and cool way). Remember, this is totally an easy problem so deal with it quick. Hope I helped you (& your nose!)
