Thermals Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Suppose you're kissing and the dry wine you've been drinking is making her breath worse. You've hinted at it by offering a mint but she refused it. Now what do you do? Do you carefully and politely explain?
mammasita Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I use one and offer him one. If he refuses, I say "are you sure? These are REALLY GOOD" 2
katiegrl Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Why not just be honest? Just say something like "hon...that wine was really potent...here's a mint, you need it. So do I." .... and then pop one in your mouth and give her one." Easy peasey! 4
Author Thermals Posted May 19, 2015 Author Posted May 19, 2015 I took one for myself and she declined when I offered one. Later I offered again. She declined. Then while kissing I slipped her mine. She gave it back saying she didn't like mints. But on the previous date she grabbed one for herself and offered me one after we ate. Was she testing to see how much I liked her on the following date? Because I do recall her having makeup on, on the first date. Then, none on the second.

She can't be offended cause you are blaming it on the wine not on her possibly having bad oral hygiene. Just like if she just ate garlic bread or something. Bad breath is a fact of life, it should not be that big of a deal. Why are you so afraid to be honest? Stop that...it's weak....
deadelvis Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 really? this sounds silly to me. I wouldn't care if she had spinach in her teeth and her breath smelled like low tide. don't be a baby
losangelena Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Was she testing to see how much I liked her on the following date? Because I do recall her having makeup on, on the first date. Then, none on the second. I fail to see how these two are connected at all. Are you suggesting that she made herself as plain and homely as possible to test whether or not you'd still date her? Very, very, very unlikely. I used to date a guy who was very peevish about breath, especially morning breath, and he would NOT kiss me until we'd both brushed our teeth first thing after waking up. What a way to kill any kind of mood. "Sorry honey, I gotta brush my teeth before we get down to sexy times!" Lol, yeah right. Morning breath, coffee breath, garlic breath, booze breath ... unfortunately, typical dating activities aren't exactly conducive to sweet smelling mouths. I'm not picky about this kind of thing, and it'd be a bit of a turn off if the guy I was with was uptight regarding the occasional bad breath. Body's can get gross. If my guy had been walking around all day and had a case of schweddy balls, I wouldn't make him go take a shower before giving him oral—where's the spontaneity in that? If you don't like how her breath smells, then don't kiss her. If it's a chronic, ongoing problem, then I'd say discuss it, but if it's just a one-off thing, I'd try and just get past it.
KatZee Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I would pop one in my own mouth and then while kissing playfully pass it from my mouth to his. I've done that with gum before. It comes off like a slick move instead of being like, "Yeah your breath stinks, eat this please." 1
preraph Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Once you know her a bit better, you tell her "My mother always told me when someone offers you a mint, you should take one." 1
Toodaloo Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 I wouldn't be kissing someone with bad breath... not even my dog... Just speak up... "That wine doesn't smell so good now - do you want a mint?"
Redhead14 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Suppose you're kissing and the dry wine you've been drinking is making her breath worse. You've hinted at it by offering a mint but she refused it. Now what do you do? Do you carefully and politely explain? If you're adult enough to be kissing, you're adult enough to hear that your breath is off putting. Simply say, I'm enjoying kissing you, but the wine tastes better in the glass" and hand her the mint.
