    Um maybe leave an anonymous note telling them. Or Say "it advising you as a friend and you should be happy because now you know and won't have to be embaressed." Because if you really are friends... You should be able to be that honest.

      I had a friend in school that I dearly wanted to tell her that she had body odor.  I did not end up telling her because I felt that I did not want to insult her.  Guess what, I saw her years later and she smelled fine.  I guess what I am saying is that you have to judge what's really going on (emotional or physical) and what kind of friendship you have.  Sometimes things work themselves out.

      God i think you've just got to be truthful,i know if i had B.O i would want someone to mention it,you may not be very popular with the person involved at first,but they will thank you in the long run

      you are right but there goes a friend,you can be as tactful as you can be and some will get offended,no matter how nice you say it. I've been in the second situation and the odor is like it needs to be cut away there is no soap & water going to help this one, it screams something is decayed...Peace

      I agree with madbitch. If I had b.o. I would want my friend to tell me rather than someone i don't know that well. Just say it nicely. Most likely they will just laugh it off and say  "I know I forgot to put deodorant on today". Or something. There really isn't any nice way to say it... But you can say it in a nice voice.
