Depends on how close you are to the person...
by: Brandy Shirley, M.A.

Hello Maya,

This is a difficult situation and a very hard thing to address w/ other people. You want to let them know, but you also don't want to offend them.

I believe the best way to handle it depends on how close you are to the person. If they are close to you, take them aside one day and let them know in a loving way that they are giving off an odor. Think together how the two of you can solve this problem.

If you are not close to the person, just let them have their freedom to smell :) Turn your head, offer some gum, or just tough it out until you are no longer around them. Hopefully, your body language will let them know that something is wrong. If they ask, tell them!

My best,
Brandy

Are these last three emails made up by Maya or meant to be a joke?
