Halitosis

I'm in the same boat as Nikki. I try not to hurt my client's feelings and purposely and strategically place 4 different types of flavored bottles of listerine for them to choose with a toothbrush and other toiletries and most have requested to use the bathroom to freshen up which gives them the opportunity to freshen their breath. Or, I'll use the bathroom and listerine my mouth for the millionth time to give them a little share/taste to freshen their breath when I kiss them

Nikki, VIPLB, and the rest of you nice ladies, I feel compelled to remind of of a very important caveat. We are guys. When you open the door the blood starts to leave the brain for more important purposes. It is unlikely we are going to pick up on the subtle hints, like strategically placed mouthwash. I'm sorry, but at that point we are working with diminished capacity. That and the fact our mind has gone to single tasking mode and is stuck in a loop thinking "I'm with a Hottie!". At least with me, at that point you will have to be a bit more direct to get me to focus on something other than you.

Be honest and tell him. I for one would appreciate knowing somethng like that, and would not be offended. Originally Posted by raedy4funn45

I'd like you to tell me how sweet I am, and how much you enjoy our time together, but would I mind using some mouthwash before our session because minty breath is a big turn-on for you. Then lead me to the bathroom where you have some Scope.

I wouldn't be affended at all. I would be releaved that you told me so that I could take care of it and so that YOU would enjoy our time together more.

I might also not think it was that my breath smells SO bad, but maybe you just like mint a lot. (denial, but same effect - problem solved)

On the other hand I would be offended or hurt if while we were intimate and your concentration to hide your "bad breath feelings" wavered, I looked up and saw you wrinkling your face in disgust.

Not only would I NOT know it was because of my breath. I might take that personally and misplace it as you not being into it, or not liking the sex, or something much more damaging than the truth.

Good Luck!

Hints are highly at risk of not making it through. I'm wanting this thoughtful and intentional provider to set me on the couch, hold my hand, look me in the eye, and say, "I really want to focus on us having a good time, but the motor oil under your fingernails is really distracting me", or whatever it is that needs saying.

Tell me. I can take it.

Hand him a glass of Listerine when he walks in. I carry a small bottle of Cool Mint Listerine in my car and use it before I get to the door. I don't smoke so that probably helps too. Originally Posted by Doc_rob

Possibly a pm? It might save him the embarrassment of the face to face. Let him know how much you enjoy the time spent together, but there is one way it could be improved. Be sincere and let him know how you struggled to find a way to bring it up. I'm sure he will deal with it properly and have no hard feelings. I don't think there is any guy that would not want to know. This way might be easier for him (and yourself).

EXCELLENT suggestion, dpsatx! As for "struggling to find a way...", a provider might add that she chose to risk her client's displeasure, in case his condition might be a symptom of an underlying dental or other health issue. I think most clients would admire her for her courage and concern.
