How do I tell my bf to get a shower?

Honestly, it should just be "hey, you need a shower". But he's SO bloody stubborn. Last time I suggested he needed a shower, he didn't have one for another 2 days. He has one about once a week, and honestly he smells pretty grim. I've even gone of giving him BJs cause it's especially bad down there. He's not BJ motivated, so I can't try that tack. He showered regularly when we started dating! He's basically just a lazy slob, but absolutely brilliant in the other areas.

So how do I convince a stubborn guy to wash, without actually insulting him?

Point being, you shouldn't have to "tell" an adult to practise good hygiene. You're not his mother. Let him go.

^THIS 100%

No adult 'needs' to be told to shower. If they can't be fucked to wash themselves, they are not a functioning adult and they do not made a good mate.

I couldn't be with someone that was so gross. The thought of giving a man a bj when he hasn't washed in a week, makes my stomach turn. It's disgusting.

Get rid. I can imagine he'll only get dirtier the longer your together.
