There’s something that every man or woman should know about dating: if your clothes smell like moldy cheese or your breath smells like a maggot infested zombie from Resident Evil 4, you are either

1. Going to have some form of bodily infection from the lack of cleanliness
2. Will want to scream like a little three-year-old when you go to the dentist and the only way to save your mouth is by giving you dentures at the age 25
3. Will never get a date
4. Have a house that smells like crap and, oh, and did I mention will never get a date?

I know that there might be a few flukes here and there where one might get a date even if you look and smell like a zombie, but soon enough that girl or guy you are dating will realize how crappy you are or just get more self esteem and go off with your friend who is l33t in WOW more than you.

My point, if you haven’t gotten it yet is take a shower! It doesn’t take that much time out of your day – 15 to 30 minutes, tops. You feel and smell much better after the shower. And you will be doing your body and everyone in smelling-range a favor.

If you have a particularly greasy body, I recommend Dial soap. I recommend the bar soap as opposed to the liquidy kind because it seems to do a better job of removing oils.

As for acne, if regular cleaning doesn’t help, then I would recommend seeking out a dermatologist. They can prescribe medicine for tougher cases of acne.

If you use somewhat hot water (not peel-your-skin-off-hot, but just hot enough) the heat will open up your pores and let the crap out and when you soap it’s good. Worked for me and my bf, it could work for you(which means we don’t guarantee it).
