Can you date someone with body odour?

[Heatman]

When it comes to one of the things that I can't stand in my life, it's going to be body odour. It hate it so much that I even hate someone with body odour. I can never have anything to do with anyone who get body odour. The offensive smell makes it impossible for me to breath. I don't want to die, so I will always stay away from those people.

How do you feel about body odour?

I don't think I could do it. If someone stinks then that would turn me off big time.

No. That's a deal breaker for me. I grew up in a family that taught me to exercise healthy hygiene habits and always keep clean.

Something I can not stand is body odour and those who choose to not stick to a hygiene routine that prevents the smell such as showering, bathing or using deodorant.

I couldn't date someone who has bad body odour and doesn't do anything to prevent it.

I don't see how some people put up with it. My wife and I were eating at a local Chinese diner, there was this guy and his girlfriend who were both in their pajamas. the man smelled horrible. I don't see how he didn't get kicked out of the restaurant. His putrid odor stretched across several tables including ours. The woman didn't smell at all. It was just him. My wife kept covering her mouth and nose with a napkin and I openly gagged a few times. I wanted to leave. I was glad when they finally got up and left. I think what aggravated me the most was that the smell was so horrible that I lost my appetite and I wasted money on the buffet for myself because I barely ate. People who smell like that shouldn't even be allowed into restaurants or stores. They need to add bad hygiene to the "No shoes, no shirt, no service" signs that some local business' have around town.

Not at all. It is a big turn-off for me.
I don't understand why people like that don't stick to a hygiene routine.

Odour of all sorts is a no, worse is even halitosis. I won’t want to move close to the person, so what exactly are we doing?

I maintain a good hygiene, I expect that from those around me as well.

I'm a clean freak and have very little time for slobs. I dated a girl in highschool for 3 months who had b.o. I remember once telling her to take a shower and once even replaced some under arm deodorant that she had run out of. I only dated her because my friends pushed her on me.

I mean, I have congenital anosmia. I can't smell a thing anyway. So would I even know they have it? xD
