> If I’m bothered by a man’s bad breath, is there anything I can do to stop noticing it?
Well, here’s what you do: for that moment, force yourself to truly believe that you love him.
You don’t mind any smell when it comes from someone you love, right? Even if it’s someone you dislike, you can tell yourself, “He smells a little, but it’s totally fine.”
Create that feeling in an instant.
When you kiss, just repeat in your head, “I love this person, I love this person, I love this person...” and before you know it, you won’t notice it anymore.
You won’t even be bothered by his breath during intimacy.
It’s like those hypnosis tricks where something bitter is made to taste sweet.
Think of it as self-hypnosis.
Of course, you’ll probably still notice it if you’re only dating him reluctantly, but just trick your brain by force.
The brain is easy to fool.
You really will stop noticing it.
Sorry if you accidentally end up genuinely falling for him. ＞＜
I’m Fuu, a column writer.
Questions about bad breath have come up in the Q&A box several times, but it really depends on the person. Not every papa (a male supporter) registered with a dating club has bad breath.
If you can’t tolerate it, my answer is to release him and wait for an offer from another papa whose breath is odor-free—or at least within a range you can tolerate.
Even if you ask here for tips, it would be very difficult to tell the other person and get them to actually follow through. When I meet someone with an unpleasant intimate odor or strong body odor, I release them without saying anything. (Women with noticeable odors are extremely rare.) When you haven’t built any rapport yet, it’s genuinely difficult to bring up something negative. In the end, I think you have two choices: tell them, knowing you may hurt their feelings and end things on a bad note, or immediately release them so you don’t make them feel bad.
I hope you receive an offer from a papa with no bad breath.
P.S.
For reference, here’s what Fuu does:
Stomach-related odor:
- Stomach medicine → prescription medicine from my doctor to repair the stomach lining
- Sacrofil → Eizai’s oral odor prevention tablets
- Avoid foods with strong odors starting two days before a date
Odor inside the mouth:
- Tartar removal and whitening → at the dentist once every three months
- Flossing → every day
- Tongue cleaning → with a dedicated scraper the night before a date
- Breath-freshening tablets → the day before and the morning of the date
- Keep gum and Mintia on hand → right before meeting and immediately after eating
As I get older and my cells age, I’m always conscious that I might start to smell if I let my guard down. I don’t want my favorite supporters to dislike me, so I’ll keep up with my care ^_^
