try some subtle hints like go for a bath n say you jump in first while i do......ironing etc. then have a quick shower to alay suspicion
I tried that Sara.
I went for a bath and said 'want me to run one for you or leave this water for you?' He said 'it's ok, I don't need one'
Wanna bet????? :shock:
say out loud....what is that DREADFUL smell....can you smell it?? It smells vile, are you sure you cant smell it, well whatever it is its making me feel right sick!!
and hope he gets the hint!
or say....whoa mate...overdoing the testosterone this morning arent we?? in a jokey sort of way.
Trouble is some peoples sense of smell is not good, so this person even if asked if they can smell something might not be able to.
Suggest:- shoving them in the shower with loads of shower gel, or just coming out with it and telling them straight they smell, and / or suggest a visit to the Doctors as it might be some sort of medical ocndition.
Always a tricky one this!
And in a former managerial life I somehow was always the one tasked with dealing with these issues... if it is as bad as you say, then I would tactfully mention it. There are lots of good anti perspirants nowadays at somewhere like Boots or (and I have a friend who has a medical condition where she sweats profusely) doctors can prescribe stronger ones.
I would want my friends to tell me if I smelt bad...

actually id tell him straight, but tactfully. If it were my friend and they couldnt take what i told them, then id leave the stinky urchin to it.....
when i ponder questions such as this, i try to put myself in the position of all protaganists. and if i were your friend, id be happy someone told me tactfully. its only a matter of time till a stranger tells him............ and it micght not be as gently as you could say it.
good luck.............or if not.....try one of those old skool diving helmets......
I never went anywhere near ya!

You could invite a less tacful person round to tell him for you?
