My boyfriend has bad b.o. sometimes...I mean, he's the greatest guy ever. Sparkling personality, always says the right thing, and he's so easy to talk to. It's just, should I hint him a little. Obviously he's not going to feel very hot if I talk to him about it, but what do I do?

He probably already knows. Maybe he's tried everything and nothing works.
If it really bothers you that much, talk to him. Make sure the two of you are alone and repeat OVER AND OVER again that you don't like him any less because of it.

Best advice I know of....buy them a bottle of something that smells good. Seriously. It works for your friends to.
For instance, I LOVE the smell of Axe and Tag and Bod. I LOVE Axe (original). My boyfriend knows that and, lately, he wears a lot more of it.
You can hint that your friend, brother, etc, bought some and you love how it smells. Then you could tease him how you'd probably want to be all up on him if he wore some. Maybe buy him a little and give a cute pout about how you'd love it if he wore some.
That way, you're indirectly telling him about his B.O. He'll probably get the hint but it won't be as bad as you actually telling him.
I did it to a friend of mine a while back. I bought her some really nice (and expensive eek ) perfume that she also fell in love with. Though she had a tendency to over due it...it was bettery than what we were smelling.

Fatal_Rei For instance, I LOVE the smell of Axe and Tag and Bod. omg, I don't know how you can like that gonk I absolutly hate chemical smells. Aftershave, body spray, deoderant, perfume, etc... it all really irritates my nasal passages and makes my lungs feel like they are on fire. I can't stand to sit near someone wearing a smell-able amount of any of that stuff. BO, I can stand. It may not be pleasant, but at least it doesn't BURN WITH HORRIBLE SEARING PAIN! gonk

Like Irish Spring Soap smells awsome! My friend Ash washes with it because she likes it and I love it when I spend the night because I use it as well. In fact...I think I bought Brad a bottle as a partial christmas gift....

It all depends on how far in the relationship you are and how comfortable you are with each other. I can tell my husband he has bad breath or needs to take a shower and he can tell me the same. Honestly I would rather hear it from him then go out stinking. So if you can just be causal about it. Maybe "Honey, I think you forgot your deodorant this morning." or something like that. But don't tell him at school or somewhere public because then he will just have to be paranoid all day. Tell him at home when he can do something about it.
