my boyfriend?
I love my boyfriend to death but lately he's kinda I don't know how to say it. He's got this little mustache thingy and his hair needs cut and he doesn't wear cologne. How can I tell him about this without hurting him?

Try saying you liked his hair short or suggest that he try a certain scent you like. The trick is to make your hints obvious enough to seem like hints but not like demands.

you don't even need to tell him. you can just do little things that will give him the hint. for example, (i did these things, but not for the same reason as you because my boyfriend likes to look clean/fresh) for x-mas or his birthday, buy him some cologne, he'll realize you like it and will wear it, at least when he's around you. and what i did once, not because he was getting a little scruffy but because he had missed a few hairs when he shaved, is i plucked it. just be like "hold still a sec, you have a hair that's really long" and just grab and yank it. it'll hurt him a little and maybe he'll take the hint. :)

just tell him the truth he should understand. Maybe buy him some good cologne for christams or somthing so your not totally saying he smells...
hope i helped.

You shouldn't have to hide anything from him. Point in a relationship is that you two are able to open up to each other and be honest. He's your man and you're the one who looks at him, so I would say your opinion matters most. Tell him, you respect his style but really prefer him with shorter hair and a clean face. He'll understand, guys are easier to deal with when it comes to being honest with their looks. He shouldn't take it personal. Now, with the cologne problem, buy him a cologne of your choice and just act like you saw it and really liked the scent so you wanted him to try it out.

just be honest and say i dont want to kiss you until you shave that off. buy him some good cologne too. you dont need to tell him he smells.

Well, to hold something back like this, would be like holding back your feelings about something that he's doing. Something that you feel and something that may possibly annoy you are significant things to verbally express in a relationship. It's what keeps the relationship honest and stable. The partner, the other partner of course, will know exactly what to expect. And that of course, will be the truth. The truth is a good thing. And don't worry, your man (a.k.a. boyfriend) is a big boy. Well, he's a grown man and I think that he can deal with it. If he doesn't, then let him know what to expect. If honesty is apart of your values for a solid foundation for a relationship, then of course practice honesty in this particular relationship. Let him know that this is you and who you are. Also, be VERY WILLING TO LISTEN TO HIS FEELINGS. LISTENING AND EMPATHY REALLY HELPS A LOT.
