  • :rotfl: How can you put up with it? If I liked someone enough to marry them I'd have instigated things so that he'd end up kissing me how I want to be kissed! How have you resisted saying "Babe, your breath STINKS! BRUSH YOUR DAMN TEETH!"
    :rotfl:

    It's odd though - it's not his teeth. It's like it comes from his stomach? I can get away with it first thing in the morning - I usually just yell 'Dog breath! Get off me.' But at night, after brushing his teeth, there's no kind excuse I can think of.

    I usually take control of the kissing so that sets the tone. But yes, I've sometimes had to say 'Darling, please stop spitting in my mouth'. If he's, ahem, on top, gravity works against him and it's like a damn waterfall but if I'm on top, the spit stays in his mouth! TMI?

    I am actually sat here with tears running down my face :rotfl: The "kissed like a bowl of jellied eels" looooooooooooooooooool.

    I've snogged some bad kissers, usually whilst intoxicated. Worst ones are usually kebab breath - borrrrrk! But I went on a date with this guy, he seemed nice if a little awkward. He kissed me and it was all over the place, it was pecky then forcing his tongue in my gob - he could not kiss, had no rhythm and I think my nose ended up with a lovebite! Combine that with the fact his FEET stunk - I could honestly smell them under the table - - - I didn't meet him again.....or *ahem* text him back.....*mean*

    Oh remembered another terrible kiss - He was too forceful and was manhandling me, I was standing there scowling and then his nose started bleeding, it was like a waterfall, even worse was bits was dropping on me and I was like ARGHHHH but I couldn't just leg it because you know he was bleeding....

    Does he drink enough water? I find dehydration makes my breath nasty. Maybe he needs probiotics for his stomach or it could be to do with GERD or something?

    Poor you...you have it worse than me lol!

    ETA: And bad breath too. Not great but what can I say to him?

    I'd much rather be told.


    Tactfully!

    Is he unusually hairy and have a wet nose?

    When kissing my husband of 3 months on Christmas morning, he charmingly told me to get away from him, because "Your breath is absolutely reeking." Now, I'm not usually a morning breath offender, but apparently my breath was rotten. Couldn't figure it out until the same thing happened on the morning of the 27th, when I figured out that I'd eaten garlicky hummus on both evenings previously (apparently I hold onto the garlic smell). Now whenever I eat garlic I make sure I sabotage OH's meal with it too :)

    Well, you're a teacher, so assume he's inexperienced in the same way your pupils are and if he's a nice guy who deserves a second chance, TEACH HIM !. He may be embarrassed but you'll be doing him a huge favour going forward. He's probably blissfully unaware of his problem.

    Just say to him, "Look, I really like you and probably nobody has said this, but I think you're overdue for a dental check because your dental placque is beginning to be noticeable, and if you floss regularly it will help." "And I don't know how you kiss other girls but this is how I like to be kissed". Then show him!

    If he likes you enough, he'll do what's necessary, and probably be very grateful to you.
