She told him no but he said she'll never meet anyone like him.
When a man says that, my response is usually, "I certainly hope so." It takes them a second to figure out they've been dissed.

I know sometimes medicine does cause smell (I once was on medication that did this)but most of the time it's poor hygiene. Sometimes if my boyfriend worked hard he smells but he'll go and take a shower.
I used to keep a blog where I wrote about online dating. Hilarity ensued.
But I don't get the poor hygiene, either. It's gross.

This literally made my stomach churn. Oh, gawd. I need to take a moment...
Strangely enough, I have seen varied "scientific" reports (research studies) in the media and on the web over the years-- even during 2014 --in which scientists have said that the primary thing that attracts women to men (at least on a subconscious level) is his smell. They call them "pheromones", which are defined as follows:
Pheromones are chemicals that are secreted in our sweat and other bodily fluids that are believed to influence the behavior of the opposite sex, such as triggering sexual interest and excitement.
That made sense at first glance. But then they alsoALL said that it detracts from a man's chances if he covers over his "natural smells" with deodorants, soaps, sprays, colognes, et al. In other words, that women instinctively are attracting to "the natural smell of men". I'm just going by memory here (not remembering the exact wording of all these many scientific studies over the years). But yet that seems contradictory to how so many women talk about this matter of how one smells and even what all the women are saying here in this thread . . . and that didn't seem quite right to me based on my own experiences over many decades. That is, what if a man's "natural smell" seems OK and non-offensive to HIM but THE WOMAN thinks it is offensive and a put-off? And yet these studies seem to say to males to "let your natural smell come out rather than trying to cover them all over with all those artificial smells".
That doesn't sound like it quite jibes with what everyone or nearly everyone says here in this thread. And yet ALL these parties over the years that call themselves "scientists" and call these statements "scientific findings" appear to say to the contrary of what you all say Huh?!!??!!!!????.
Sounds like he might have mild autism. People who do sometimes struggle with hygiene, and might also have the lack of social insight to know not to call a woman after she clearly expressed that she wasn't interested.
1. Htf do you sweat when it is 20° out?
2. What kind of person doesn't know that you need to bathe? Seriously, this is basic stuff.
3. Meeting guys like that must make streeterville seem pretty chill.
4. I feel sorry for your friend, she's more forgiving than I would be. Unless this guy was homeless or something, I can't fathom what he was thinking.
I'm homeless (most days) and I even make efforts to be better. On days I can't be clean, I try to avoid meeting people.
And yet those are the days they want to be around me the most.
