Dear Diana,
I am obsessed with cleanliness and neatness, but my guy has poor personal hygiene levels. He often stinks and pays scant regard to being presentable. He says he has a problem as he sweats a lot. I have told him to use talcum powder and deodorants after he bathes, but he is least concerned. He was not like this earlier, but now he has just let himself go. He does not believe in the dictum: Cleanliness is next to godliness. Often, when he meets me late evening after work, I feel like pushing him under the shower. He needs to bathe at least two times a day. He always comes up with the excuse that commuting leaves him in a mess. But he does not take any effort to keep himself clean and neat. Often, his facial fuzz is in a mess and unruly. He also has cracked heels and dirty feet. How do I knock sense in his head? He says he is a guy so he can get away with an unkempt appearance.
