If she bathes regularly, and the smell is from something else, I probably wouldn't have a problem. Unless it's overpowering.

I have a colostomy since February this year. It will most likely not be reversed. I take super good care of it daily but I occasionally have a stinky Pete episode. It's not a perfect system/medical device. Though, a fascinating anatomical creation. I would be dead without it.

Not that it's top priority in my mind but I often wonder, if I ever think to date again, how it will be perceived. I think it would gross guys out, honestly. But it's my reality and my dear little friend. I will eventually nick name it., maybe Stumpy or Stinky Pete. Still thinking up names.

biggrin







This is a situation that I think any reasonable person would/could/ should accept as a "no fault " situation and should try to accommodate if the person with the condition did what they could to control the issue.

LIFE HAPPENS and when the result are surviving, and hopefully thriving, with medically necessitated care this is the exception.

Having been around many people with various medical device systems my experience is usually they are RARELY and issue and often they are devout in being very considerate and accomodating the entire spectrum of personal hygiene. (If for no other reason not doing so is life threatening infections.) And now days if they do not do it themselves; they often hire a professional care giver rather than make their mate their nurse.

My personal feeling is if you love someone their medical care is a privilege; even the times it is less than pleasant.

Since you NEVER know when you can be walking in the same shoes; especially when we age, I I think we have to consider offering "grace" in no fault situations.


Thank you so much for the advice and opinion. I hope I meet someone like that one day. I was kind of afraid to post it.

:heart:


Yea in the pursuit of perfection the world kind of over looks the butterflies that are often less than perfect but still very beautiful. One thing good about getting into groups that deal with these challenges every day at Independent Living Centers as just a fact of life. Never give up hope millions of people with their little "Oscar's" date, marry, and live happily ever after. As nice as you are I am sure you will be one. flowerforyou

Need more information. Suppose she is coming from the gym and for some reason the women's shower there is broken so she is hurrying home to take a shower. She comes flying around the corner and runs into you. Your eyes meet, it's magic...but then this smell hits you. Still, you remember you read on Mingle somewhere that working out can put girls in the mood. :smile: She seems to like the look of you.. so you don't run away... you try to think of something clever to say....like, are you an environmentalist? We should try and conserve water....

I had a grirlfriend once who suffered from halitosis, otherwise she was a lovely girl. It was a conditon she had, she always had mints. :smile: We went out for quite a while.

So, it's alright if it's not their fault then maybe. It seems like if people think that it's a medical condition they might accept it but if not it's just considered to be offensive.

It's just that I saw this guy on a chat show once that had man boobs and he said that he never had any problems getting girlfriends because, according to him, women aren't superficial like that. This was around the time that man boobs were being discussed in the media and it could be a matter of public awareness. It's out of ignorance, after all, when people are nasty to people that have certain deformities and disabilities.

It's just that the smelly don't often go up to people and tell them that they can't help it I suppose because it's still not socially acceptable maybe and they probably don't want to get into a discussion about why they smell; like when fat people say it's their glands. It's not as bad as being fat though and that's kind of socially acceptable and some people find it atractive. People that smell must be quite lonely because other people find their very presence offensive and they shun them. Many of them most likely end up living in denial and try to pass it off as somebody else.

I'll tell you what I find stinky: a woman who chases a man or throws herself on him when he has stated that he is in a relationship and he is looking for women here for friendship only. Nothing reeks of desperation and neediness more than a woman who has no self-respect and chases and throws herself on a man. It's desperate and embarrassing. You are better than that, ladies. A man will treat you any way you let him. It's time to lay down the law and show some class. You know who you are.

I mean the ladies who quote men who are totally not interested and try to invite themselves on dates with them. Save yourselves the heartache. The men are only being polite if they have stated that they are in a relationship. Pay attention. I cannot stress this enough.

Such nice things you said! I know of one person that has a little "Oscar" and he hates it and is disgusted by it. He won't even take care of it himself and makes his daughter to do it. I feel very sad for him. I take care of mine like it's my little baby. Lol. Thanks again for your kind words.
