new boyfriend


Question Posted Tuesday September 16 2008, 7:17 pm

There are some things about my boyfriend of about a month now that i would really like to change... i know thats kind of bad but its not major things, just a few.. like i would really like it if he shaved more often because i really like clean shaven men rather than the stumble.. and he has a bit of a problem with acne and i think a good facewash would help like neutrogena or something... is there a polite way to bring this up? thanks for any advice in advance :)

Hi,
Fiest of all, make sure that you really want to do this. You haven't been with him that long. He had acne when you met him and he probaably feels comfortable with you. Bringing it up might make him feel more self-conscious than he already is about his problem.
He might think that you don't like him the way he is and he'll develop a complex around you. Maybe he's tried acne remedies that haven't worked. No one wants acne.
As far as shaving is concerned, just tell him that the stubbly look looks great on him, but sometimes when you really want to get close, it makes you itch. That should do the trick!
Good luck,

As far as shaving goes; tell him how much sexier he would look cleanly shaven and I'm sure that he'll do it for you.

As far as the acne goes; this isn't going to be easy, in fact, it'll probably be the hardest thing to bring up. Even I, wouldn't know how to bring this up other than just coming out with it, trying to be as nice as possible, and pay him some compliments and let him know how much better he'd look - however, I'm not sure that this will work as well as it will with shaving. This one he's probably already insecure about, so this may stir up some of those. :/
