??bored?? asked:
I tried offering gum and mints but that only helps for a while. She is very sensitive and I don’t want to hurt her feelings.
how do I tell my coworker she has bad breath?

excuse me, but your breath stinks…here, have some gum.
Hey, Wanna a gum?
Is it really that bad?
just tell her in person.I mean don’t tell her when ya’ll are in a crowd just pull off to the side and tell her.
She might have a medical problem. If she’s just a co worker, not a personal friend, I’d stick to giving her mints and gum. Leave some on her desk, or maybe drop a few packs in her purse? Good luck. Ron
Keep offering gum and mints. Buy the strong flavored ones.
You can offer it to her right after she says something to you in close proximity. Do not let her refuse.
i think the best thing to do is… asking the question hidden.. i mean.. you should ask her that u will have a dinner with ur old friends etc and u are afraid that u has bad breath, what should you do for that how can you stop bad smelling breath etc. then i m sure she will think about herself and everything will be fine:D ?? if i were u i would do that.. sorry for my bad english 🙁
Leave an anonymous card on her desk with a few sticks of gum in it. Type it and tell her some positive things about herself as well as a good hearted solution to the breath problem.
haha funny you should ask. earlier i was talking to a friend about how when i was in fourth grade, the girl that sat next to me had bad B.O. i pulled her aside and asked her if she used deodorant, and then i told her i had started using it and it helped me alot (anything to not make her feel alone or like i was attacking her) and that she should too cause i heard SOMEONE say she smelled bad. so blame the comment on someone hypothetical and try not to sound like you are attacking her. if she doesnt react, tell her flat out.
tell her u heard someone else say it so just cause u don’t want her to go thru the same thing just give her some mints..
“Gosh, to think I got all these Altoids for the price of one! Help me out, take a few packs….”
Give her gum to chew!
,if that aint gonna work,
buy her a toothbrush and toothpaste
for her birthday or christmas or whichever comes first!
or just tell her face to face would be easier!!
You did the right thing already. Offering her gum and mints should have given her the hint..and I bet it did. Women are usually very intuitive. There is not much else you can do.
Tell her somebody told you your breath smells bad,
in the beginning you were surprised, but is one of the things you might not be aware of . . . and finally you appreciated it!
That should make her think . . .
Or maybe not . . .
Then put another colleague to approach her and tell her
