Deal breaker?

Hi,

I've started date someone recently that is really nice, really like him actually, it's early days, he's been lovely over last month or 2, but we slept together for first time on weekend, which was good, except from he has a bad smell, I don't really know what it is, maybe bo, was quite off putting tbh, how can I bring this up sensitively as apart from this issue we are having fun and like him, I don't want to be rude but I also couldn't put up with long term? How do I say something?! Thanks

Was the smell coming from a specific area?

I don't know if it's body odour or just his smell like a manly smell lol I don't know but it's a strong off putting smell that's giving me the ick to be honest, should I say something and if so how? Or do I just leave it there? The smell is strong and off putting! But apart from that actually like him and seems decent guy.

Erm no walking next to him etc I can't smell anything only since got closer if makes sense it's really strong smell and not great 🙃 he's quite well presented so don't think he's not showering lol I don't know but it's putting me off

Genetic syndrome?
Fish odour syndrome

( long shot )

BO is normally an obvious smell

Ooh no, just end it. Smell compatibility is absolutely essential.

Perhaps give it another shot to see if it's still there? It might have been a one-off.

Yeah I'll give another go lol but it's just a really weird but strong smell, it's not anything in particular I notice I just know I don't like it and never smelt a man before like this 😂 sounds weird, I think it's stale sweat smell not sure how do I say or is lost cause if can't be bothered to have a good wash before a date?! He's lovely otherwise and we get along great well, lots of jokes etc.

Suggest having a shower/bath together next time.

at least you would know he is clean.
