Telling my girl about her breath

[coltrane]

Ladies:

I love my girl to death, and she brushes her teeth a lot.. But NOT her tongue.. and this is where the bad breath comes from.


How do i broach this topic?!    HELP?!?

[tonymctones]

not a lady but I dont understand why ppl just cant be honest about things?

"baby I love you but your breath is kicking like jackie chan" in a joking manner, but then again Im single so you might not want to take my advice

 One day as you two are in the bathroom together, brushing  your teeth, just say, "love, when you brush your teeth, have you brushed your tongue as well? I heard it's good to get bacteria out of the mouth, and helps to prevent bad breath." Then you proceed to do it, hopefully she takes the hint.

This sounds like a good method to use.
One I've always tried with success is to always carry a pack of gum around (I like having good breath, and I like chewing gum too), and offer her a piece every so often as you take a piece. She won't take offense, or shouldn't, if you're chewing some too.
I've always been told it's saliva, or lack of saliva, that causes bad breath. So if you always have lots of saliva/spit in your mouth from gum, you'll have less of a chance of bad breath.

I think for people that have been together for awhile it's very easy to tell the other person their breath is horrible (we do all the time  )   

How long have you been together? 


Parker and Youngblood have good answers imo.

You could also say, "whoo!  I feel like my breath smells"  And lick the back of your hand and say, "I hear when this dries it will smell like my breath" then sniff it.  Ask her to do the same

Thanks for the input guys and gals.

Last night i asked her if MY breath was ever bad.. and she said no.  Then she reciprocated and asked if hers was...    so i squealed.  Wasn't a big deal and she now hits her tongue.

There could also be another underlying reason like medication or diet or even some sort of dental disease...  I've noticed some people get really bad "coffee breath" too.  You may want to get a toothbrush with a tongue cleaner on it (for yourself) and then say to her "hey, did you ever try one of these? They work great" or something to that effect...

[SamoanIrishman]

You can actually buy a tongue scraper. Its a flat piece of plastic with an edge...it's gross what you can scrape off your tongue even AFTER you brush it!!!

i hate brushing my tongue, it makes me gag.  NO COMMENTS FROM THE PEANUT GALLERY!

Sometimes bad breath is caused by tonsil stones..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonsillitis


Those things Stink, and my sister got her's removed so she wouldn't have to deal with bad breath, etc...

however, it may sound nasty but those stones can be easily removed and kept fairly clean...

You think that's gross...look at the tonsil stones MC was talking about

[Tito24]

They smell worse than they look..many times people can have these "holes in there tonsils" after a bad case of strep throat..After that you need to remove them quite frequently so you don't stink

Don't forget to mention the baby wipes you use..To freshen up..

to freshen up??? you mean to wipe my ass after i take a dump is closer....lets call an egg an egg shall we...

and frankly , i consider yall dirty to not do the same....

why dont you all use paper to do your dishes? i mean wipe em with paper and put em away....if its good enough to clean filth off your body...it should be good enough for dishes right?

the way i see it is...if you dont have moisture to dissolve yall r walking around with shit between yer ass cheeks(however miniscule an amount)...and thats plain disgusting
