Carry gum with you at all times prepare yourself or you can tell him straight up about his breath. It would probably benefit him in the long run. If nobody complains then he will never know!
Bear it or tell him.

He needs to know - it's very awkward since you barely know him, but it would be worse for him if you just stop being his friend and he doesn't know why. His reaction will depend on his character (a good reaction is a sign of an intelligent person), but he should thank you in the long run.

There are nice and sensitive ways to say anything, and it is a sensitive subject, so just do it gently, with plenty of compliments (you don't want to ruin his self confidence, but remember that leaving without being honest could be worse for him).

Alternatively, offer him dental chewing gum.

Every time he opens his mouth throw a tictac in. Not only does it help his breath, it improves your aim.
Offer her chewing gums... I am sure sge will get the hint.

Gum, Extra Strong Polo's? If you are gonna tell him up front, do it when your alone. It's much better coming from someone who's trying to help him than getting it from someone who will be much more blunt about it in a much more horrible way. It will benefit him in the long run :smile:
Tell him to stop eating dog ****?
