Okay. I have a friend. Actually, he's one of my best friends, and well, he has SERIOUS body odor. pinch.gif
The other day, he smelled SO FREAKING BAD that I could smell him when he was like 3 feet away from me. Then he gave me a hug, and I almost died.
I mean he's a cool guy and all, but geez...he has TERRIBLE hygiene.

Today, he stuck his hand in my boyfriend's bag of funyons (?), and it smelled so bad afterwards, that my bf just gave it to him cause he couldn't stand the scent.

The problem: Well, he likes this girl, right? And he keeps asking me advice..like "How do I get her to like me?" and I just wanna scream out... "TAKE A SHOWER ONCE IN A WHILE. THAT'S HOW. Oh and maybe shave once in a while too."
Because seriously, he's a nice guy....he just has really bad hygiene.
How do I tell him without hurting his feelings? ermm.gif

Hm. If he's really one of your best friends, you should have no problems telling him "Dude, you stink. Take a shower." That's the great thing about having close friends - you can be blunt and tell them the truth without worrying about them thinking you're rude.

But if you really, really don't want to tell him directly like that, tell him that one of the main things that attract girls to guys isn't their physical appearance but their scent. And buy him some cologne and soap. Maybe he'll get the picture.

That's the thing. He's a sensitive guy...I deny him a hug and he's mad at me for like days T_T

Better you to tell him than the girl he likes.

And who said you have to be blunt about it?

Talk to him subtly about how girls love good,clean scents...

REALLY GET THAT POINT ACROSS.

Does that really show that he's mature enough to be in a relationship?

^ Well. He can't date..
He's muslim...and apparently, muslims aren't allowed to date?
He doesn't want a relationship.
He wants her to like him...maybe even just a good friend or something, cause right now, she thinks he's annoying and clingy. He walks her to like every class.
Yeah. I think I'll do the "girls like good smelling boys" thing.
