I have a papa (a male supporter) who’s over 70.

Thank you for your question. I’ll answer as well. In Japan, being odorless may be considered the norm, but overseas, it’s normal for people to have their own scent. Everyone smells a little different. Also, people who own cats don’t usually say they dislike their cat because it smells bad. The owners themselves may even smell a bit like their cats. That makes me think whether someone’s smell bothers you can also depend on how you feel about them. You may not mind the smell of a cat you love, or people who grow up surrounded by certain smells may not be as sensitive to them. I even saw someone on TV who said they liked their own smell after not bathing for about a week. Why not try developing stronger feelings for this person first? Once you really like someone, you may stop noticing minor smells. Also, when you go to a hotel, taking a bath together or brushing your teeth together can make quite a difference. A man of that age probably wouldn’t mind soaking in a bathtub, so filling the tub and taking a bath together might help with the smell as well. I think it’s more effective than just taking a shower.

If you get nasal laser treatment for hay fever, your sense of smell might become weaker. Alternatively, why not wear the nose clips used in synchronized swimming?

Please disinfect your entire body and wash your clothes before getting close. A new COVID variant seems to be spreading lately. I think it would be best to keep a consistent distance while dating.

Tell him to shower before the date. Also, ask him to keep eating something like Frisk mints the whole time. If you’re not close enough to say that, maybe keep a backup and date them both in parallel.
