We all know the saying “love is blind”, but what happens when you open your eyes to find your partner’s personal hygiene not up to your standards? To be honest, no one wants to be in a relationship with someone who doesn’t take care of themselves. But where do we draw the line? 

Is low hygiene a complete deal breaker in a partner for you?

Personal hygiene is an important aspect of health and well-being, and while it’s not necessarily a complete deal breaker for everyone, it can be a major turnoff for many people (me specifically).

The truth is, it’s not just about physical appearance, but also about how someone takes care of themselves and their environment. 

Poor hygiene can be an indicator of larger issues like neglect, laziness, or even mental health problems. So, it’s understandable that someone might not want to be in a romantic relationship with a person who doesn’t prioritize hygiene. Of course, there are different levels of poor hygiene, and it’s important to communicate your boundaries and expectations in a relationship

The Warning Signs of Low Hygiene

  • Strong body odor
  • Bad breath
  • Dirty fingernails
  • Not tidying after usage
  • Messy hair and clothes
  • Poor oral hygiene
  • Not washing hands after using the bathroom

If you’ve noticed any of these signs in your partner, it’s time to have a conversation about their personal hygiene. 

But how do you approach the subject of poor hygiene without offending them?

It can be a tricky subject to broach, but open and honest communication is key. Start by gently expressing your concerns, perhaps by saying something like, “Hey, I noticed you haven’t been brushing your teeth regularly, is everything okay?” It’s important to avoid attacking or shaming the person, but rather focus on the behavior or habit that needs to change. 

You could also suggest ways to improve their hygiene, like showering together or buying them a nice smelling soap or deodorant as a gift. 

Ultimately, it’s important to remember that hygiene is a personal choice and some people might not see it as a priority. If it’s a deal breaker for you, then it’s important to be clear about your expectations and move on if necessary.
