new date today, all was well, however, the breath...hers not mine! man it wasnt good. and this was on a date...christ knows what morning breath might have been like. she didnt smoke, wasnt smokers breath. how the f ccuk do you tell someone they smell like they have rimmed a dog?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

ah... very sensitive issue.
You can offer her gum, or use breath wraps while you're with her. I don't think you can ever tell that to the face of beautiful creature, I can't anyway

Maybe she has a condition that makes it bad?

i think its the tongue that is usually the problem. you gotta scrape it, especially the back and get all the gunk and debris off so its pink and not white. if not, the bacteria build up and thats what you smell
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

ohh. I am so paranoid about that ****e that when im gonna go on a date. I start brushing my teeth like 4 o 5 times a day since the day before, including flossing and tongue scrapping to. on the date if dinner i always make sure to go to bathroom a wash mouth well before leaving.
breath mints are temporary.
i'd say is either a condition or bad hygiene. girls are so sensitive to smells so it's usually the guy with the bad breath even in T.V.

Get a travel toothbrush (folds in half) and put a dab of toothpaste on it before you leave for your date. Keep it in your pocket and at the end of dinner go to the restroom and brush your teeth/tongue. Fold it back up, back in pocket, she will have no clue and your breath will be fine.

Why be secretive about it?DonJuanabe said:
You are not snorting cocaine in the bathroom, right? I'd just be like,
"Hey, by the way, I'll quickly brush my teeth and come back"...
Double win.
1) You are confident.
2) You pay attention to detail.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
