He Called His Fiancé Unhygienic And Said He Didn’t Want To Hug Someone Who Smelled Like A Pile Of Onions

Have you ever been in that uncomfortable situation where you’ve dated someone who had a few hygiene issues? What would you do if you were supposed to marry that person?
One man recently confronted his fiancé, whose recent lack of proper hygiene has been bothering him.
He and his fiancé are in their early 20s. While he loves his fiancé and thinks he’s a very sweet guy, he’s had a few hygiene issues that affect their relationship.
Recently, his fiancé has gotten worse about taking the proper precautions to make sure he doesn’t stink throughout the day, like applying deodorant.
The other day, his fiancé hugged him when he came home, and he smelled awful. There had been a few instances where he stunk a little, but it was particularly bad in this instance.
“I pointed it out, and he told me that he didn’t think it was that bad because he had tried to put cologne under his arms to mask the scent,” he recalled.
“I was confused and asked him why he didn’t just shower or wipe under his arms with soap and water, but he told me that he wanted to wait a while before he took one.”
This was one of those moments where he couldn’t understand why his fiancé would try to cover up his poor hygiene with cologne and not simply take care of it by showering or using deodorant.
He became so angry that he told his fiancé that what he was doing was unhygienic and that he couldn’t stand trying to hug him when he smelled like a “pile of onions.”

His fiancé felt incredibly hurt by his words and couldn’t stand how he told him he was unhygienic. Then, his fiancé accused him of calling him dirty, which wasn’t true; he just wanted him to do a better job keeping himself fresh.
“I started to apologize when I realized it hurt his feelings, but I told him that it was better for me to be the one pointing it out instead of someone else,” he added.
“He did not care and was still focused on the fact I called him unhygienic.”
Was he too harsh with his fiancé, or was it a good idea to point out his hygiene?
