Foo - How do I tactfully tell a girl to brush her teeth?

I seem to have secured a non-committal relationship which includes sex. We met up last night for the 2nd time and I have made an observation: she needs to brush her teeth. It's pretty awful :notamused: She slept over, so I thought I'd try dropping a hint by saying "I'm going to brush my teeth, want mouthwash or anything?" No bite.

How can I convey my desires without coming across as a bad guy?

You didn't notice this BEFORE she slept over? I mean.. when you kissed her?


Maybe I'm just a freak. I brush and floss AT LEAST 7 times a day.

Haha, and I thought I was a freak because I brush 3x a day :p

I hadn't kissed her before she slept over.

Is she English?

No.

Dang you move fast, PC.

Have a cute little game with her. Tell her you want to go brush each other's teeth together.

I wouldn't trust that other personal hygiene habits aren't just as atrocious. Run away.

Holy crap!

LOL nice avatar.

I know it might seem fast, but consider that sleepovers in college aren't that big of a deal because we all live close to each other. I feel like I'm not "speeding" toward anything -- I have no desire to date this or any other girl. If it fails, I'm not really losing anything.

So you didn't sleep with her "sleep" with her. You just SLEPT with her.



GAH. Don't answer that, It's none of my beeswax. nevermind. Sorry.

+! I tend to agree; however, bad breath is not necessarily a product of bad hygiene, but also could be a indicator of an underlying metabolic dysfunction. Hypothyroidism and Diabetes come to mind.

The same way that you tactfully tell a girl that those pants give her a muffintop and make her look fat.








Good luck.

you smell like what you eat, so maybe cut off her supply of garlic and durians.

Like an adult - right up front "Listen, you need to brush your teeth. I have a spare toothbrush you can use..." No offense if you guys right off the bat are already engaged in sex, this should not be an embarrassment to her. BTW it is always a good idea to have spare toothbrushes. Buy a few extra and keep them handy.

At the very least you can say to her "hey I left you a washcloth, soap, a toothbrush and toothpaste on the bathroom counter so you can freshened up..."

And is it the breathe thing not her teeth? Also leave some mouthwash. I bet she smokes and drinks coffee? Long ago I stopped dating guys who did this - there was no way to clean up that breathe! Phew!

what else isn't she cleaning?
seriously - just dump her scrungy a*s

Offer her some chips and dip. (http://nashville.about.com/library/blank/jokes/blsalesman.htm)

Tell her that her breath would knock a buzzard off a s**twagon as you offer her some cinnamon gum. ;) Hopefully, this will lead her to a clue.

Use a skunk's ass as a nosegay when you are around her.

Wait until you both smell something really bad, like an overflowing portapotty or a really bad fart, then say to her: "Could you please close your mouth?"

Tell her you're into "role playing" and then dress up as a dentist. You can figure out the rest...

This

tactfully? I am not sure I know that word, so I will suggest this. http://www.condomdepot.com/product/detail.cfm/nid/207/pid/2387

I sure hope she has other "charms" or is the only girl at the mining camp...

If it really means nothing then just tell her straight up!

Chics with knives are hot.

I wonder if she's posting a parallel thread entitled, "How do I tactfully tell a boy I've been faking satisfaction?"

nah...she just uses the knives.

Women with any sort of weapon are hot, really. (at least to me) Women with knives can be a little scary though. When I was in the Army back in the eighties and my hitch was up, I still had to do 2 years in the reserve. One weekend a Sgt. shows up in his street clothes. Naturally everyone asked where his uniform was and he had to fess up. He had cheated on his wife and she found out. She whipped out her knife and chased him out of the house. He figured that he'd let her cool off for a while and go back the next day. When he went in the house while she was at work he found that she'd slashed all of his clothes.(including his uniforms) She went out in the garage and scratched the paint off of his motorcycle tank, cut the stuffing out of the seat and slashed the tires. She smashed a framed picture of his family reunion, pulled it out of the broken glass and slashed it up. She cut everything to do with him in that house. The only thing she didn't carve up was him and the clothes on his back. Since then I've always given knife wielding women a wide berth. ;)

OK ... say this:

"Look Darlin' I Luv Ya but you have to brush your teeth before you see me, OK?"

Then hand her a brand new soft brush with a small tube of paste and after she does the deed, act really excited to be with her, like it turned you on. Showing her that there is a reward for her efforts.

Good luck pal.

This is the way to do it. I have asked this before and it has never been answered so here it is again. Why do you men come to public forums to ask for personal suggestions? You know what you need to do so do it. It isn't that difficult. You don't ask others what you should wear or which way you should go to work so why post about things that you need to do to make your lives easier?

guys are stoopid

guys are stoopid

That's why being stoopid is a good thing :)

huh? I don't get it. remember, I'm stoopid

You have obviously never visited the commuter sub-forum here. In fact, it's about all they talk about. (when they're not whining about Joeybikes cool videos) :lol:

Maybe I'm just weird like that, but I wouldn't have an A goes into B until both have had enough type of relationship with any chick I didn't feel comfortable straight out telling that her breath was frickin nasty when and if that was the case. http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/images/emoticons/uhoh.gif

Hahaha, thanks for the responses :p. The issue isn't me not able to tell her my request, but how to do is with the greatest amount of tact as to minimize possible offensiveness/awkwardness.

Say it with a Hallmark Card.

You should try asking her how to ask some one to brush their teeth because there breath stinks, with out offending them. Tape it then play it back to her while staring at her waiting for the moment of recognition. If she's anyhting like me (6'2" 200lb White Male, Leo[I believe in it if you believe in it, if not disregard, that stuff is stupid], Loves Chinese Food, Married with 1 child.) she will think it's funny as hell.

Switch out the note in a fortune cookie. It'll look like it didn't come from you :D

don't forget to teach her how to floss. I have the impression you'll be teaching her quite a few things ...:P
