While I was out last weekend, I had something strange happen.? It’s been years since I’ve had this experience.? I was with a few of my friends at a local night spot.? I was standing talking to some friends when I noticed a attractive blond.? She is 5’7″, thin, shoulder length hair, blue eyes, in her mid-30′s.? It didn’t take long before the two of us began to talk.? We had a great conversation, but something was wrong.
As I leaned over to listen to something she was whispering to me, I got a whiff of something that just about made me speechless.? Ughh!? I took a deep breath, turned my head and coughed.? I thought I was mistaken since the room was crowded.? So I waited a few seconds and leaned back in to continue our conversation.? This time the whiff turned into a full vapor scandal.? For the next 2 minutes of our conversation I would hold my breath and briefly turn my head every chance I got.
I thought it might have been body odor from someone walking by.? At first I wasn’t sure what it was, but it was her breath.? How could such a beautiful woman have bad breath?? Maybe she was sick.? Maybe she had sinus problems.? She didn’t sound like she was having sinus problems.? I’m still stunned.
So I began to think, how could your friends let you stand there without a breath mint?? Isn’t her female friends supposed to clue her in?
Normally when you think of someone having bad breath, you usually remember the jokes about men.? Men are the ones that don’t realize their fly is open, their socks don’t match, or they need a breath mint.? Women are usually the ones that always get a courtesy check by other women.? Women notice a tag showing.? They will tuck it in.? Women notice your shirt if you missed a button.? They even notice if you have a piece of broccoli in your teeth.? So why wouldn’t her friends tell her that she needed a Mentos?
The sad thing is as soon as I realized that I was smelling her breath, I lost interest.? Some how it crushed my image of what this beautiful woman smells like.? Even though I didn’t kiss her, bad breath made the thought of a kiss impossible.? I know that we all use our senses when it comes to dating, romance and love.? It’s normal for us to dress for the occasion.? We lotion our skin.? We spend hundreds of dollars on perfume and cologne.? Why?? To feel good.? To look our best.? To attract our potential mate.
Why would you go through all of that and stop short of a piece of peppermint?? Let’s just say you don’t know that your breath is bad, wouldn’t you want your friends to let you know?? Would you tell your friend about their bad breath?? Am I the only one that will let bad breath stop a conversation?
