Don't forget that most people can't smell their own breath. So if you detect a friend's bad breath, you should speak up.

"My mom was the one who finally told me my breath smelled bad. She couldn't hold back," Alvarez says. "It embarrassed me at first, but I'm happy she said something, because now I watch what I eat, drink more water and use products to get rid of it."

If you respect the person, it's your duty to tell them.

There are two possible approaches, according to Fitzpatrick.

Sit down with your friend in a private setting and be direct. Begin the conversation by telling them you believe there is something they would want to know and that you aren't sure they are aware of the problem.

Or, if you know the person is sensitive, you may need to be more cautious about your approach. Delicately bring up the issue by carrying mints with you. Take one yourself first and then offer one to your friend who has bad breath. If the person doesn't accept, Fitzpatrick says it is acceptable to offer a nudge by simply saying, "I think you should."

I'm very outspoken, so it wouldn't be out-of-chacater for me to say, "Bitch, you smell"

But I keep it nice.

Girl you better tell him the truth. Wouldn't you want someone to let you know if you were walking around with halitosis!?

sdfjalj how is that your best friend though? Tell them! It might actually not be an issue with them brushing their teeth but they might have some kind of oral disease.

Yes I would but I would feel awkward af after. I wouldn't mind if it was some random but my best friend telling me would be the worst. Maybe I should get someone else to tell him

I'm gonna get someone to tell him that he's not too close with so it isn't awkward
It must be like rotting tonsils or something because it's always there. The worst thing is we both go to college to do catering (chef) course and we could be in the kitchen from 9am to 5pm and the last thing I want on an empty stomach is a mouth full of sh*t breath to make me gag.
I better not get WPs for graphic content, I'm the one who has to live with it

This. Subtle hint that your breath is stinking.

I always have chewing gum with me
