Bad Breath at the Bar

Posted by Jennifer

Last night I was out for happy hour at a swanky and trendy bar where I met a few guys…

However, and one of them had terribly bad breath, not a good first impression I felt like I needed to be wearing a mask.

OK, there are a number of reasons for halitosis, bad oral hygiene, dehydration etc.

So I’m open to the idea that, yes, bad breath aka halitosis happens, it’s part of life,
but for me, big BUT here – on the initial meeting it just makes me wonder, will his stinky breath be 24/7 – and what happens in the morning, I have to ask myself as a woman who likes to have morning sex, does it get worse, or is it just a matter of brushing and flossing or drinking a glass of water?

Either way I do think it’s important to note the state of your breath.

*And on a side note remember to brush and floss – you never know where you could be waking up in the morning after a hot date.

About Jennifer Kelton

I did not wake up one morning and say “hey I think I’d like a man use my sweater like a towel, write a candid dating book, become a dating expert, the CEO and founder of a social dating site and have three blogs.”

All of this has happened in a slow burn and here I am. The good, the bad, the mistakes, way too many tears shed to count, lots of wine and oh my goodness a huge learning curve that leaves me much of the time saying, “I’m sorry but this is all new to me.”

    It was 2:44 A.M. when, for the third night in a row, I woke up with beyond extreme pain (the kind I would not wish on my worst enemy) from a root canal that I had just had days before. As I shuffled, with my bed head hair, blurry eyes and freshly [...]
