Yah, wtf are people on about. How stinky are these mfs where they need to shower BEFORE A DATE?! I’ve NEVER showered before a date. If you shower every day or every other day, you shouldn’t be a stink person, especially not enough to necessitate showering AGAIN BEFORE A DATE. I don’t wanna go out with someone and have them smell like chemicals or flowers or potpourri or some shit. I want them to smell like person.
I’m with my forever partner now so we won’t shower for a week, and they always smell good to me uwu
I mean...... Isn't it just common courtesy to be as clean as possible if there is a probability of any sexual activity?
Do you guys not exercise or have sex? I don't even have the gene for underarm body odor, and even I would be smelly after a week.
Yeah idk. I think they're just high on their own ego.
And they're fine just being fake or high effort, like that's maintainable in a long term relationship 😂. Like fuck bro we all get old, you're gonna be changing your partners drawers or vice versa at some point. Life gets rough, they'll find out eventually.
