How do you tell someone that they have body oder (BO)?

Question

There are my friend, so I don't want to be mean.

Answer 1

Offer to go for a jog.

Make it obvious that you're sweating and say:  

"whew, i can't wait to go home and use my super cool deodorant which smells like MAGIC! which deodorant do you use?"

By including yourself into what could have been an embarrasing moment, you made it seem so casual and friendly! :)

Answer 2

Just sit them down in private and do it very nicely. Tell them you just want to keep them from getting hurt by other people. It may not be their fault though. Some medicines and foods cause it. So be really nice.

If they have a myspace, you could get them to add the app called The Truth Box. People can anonymously tell you what they think and the person will never know who wrote it to them, so you could write it in the Truth Box.

Answer 3

buy some shampoo and body wash stuff and go for a run or sweaty activity. after that say this," wow i stink how bout you. and then invite them to your house to watch a movie or whatever and tell them that if they want they can use your shower. but make sure you put all your other stuff somewhere and only have out the good smell stuff. also you could buy a whole bunch of perfume and put it in front of your sink and they might get curious and try some!

hope i heped lots!:)

Answer 4

You don't necessarily have to tell them. If there is a holiday or their birthday coming up, buy them a bath kit, with body wash, perfume and lotion, you could also bring your deodorant to school and tell her that it smells really good, and offer to let her try some, and if she likes it, let her keep it.
