Would you date a guy with a bad breath?

Imagine that you are dating a guy. He is humorous, handsome, sweet, and well-mannered. A perfect match. Then it comes the moment to kiss him. He comes close to you, and you smell his breath. He is an owner of bad breath. The meat, garlic, onion, whatever smells so bad, and the romance vanishes. All sparks which were bursting are not here anymore. All you remember is bad breath.

Now here is the question: Should you tell him that his breath smells so bad? It irritates you, and you hope he will use gum, menthol, or breath cleaner. If this is the first date, this impression is not good. Bad hygiene is not a turn-on.

If you tell him what is bothering you, he might get ashamed. Or he will complain that you are rude. Or he will leave. Or he will apologize.

If you don’t say, he will continue to smell bad on the next date. If you wish to see him again, he will not change his habits. Accept me as I am, he will say. Your romance will turn in. They could have a bad smell.

I think if you know a person for a long time, if you get married, you need to accept him as he is. He is smelling, farting, and sweating. This is a human habit. You got used to it. Some men have good habits, others do not. Some will fix this with years, some will not, and you will warn him from time to time.

For the first impression is very important to represent yourself in the best light. If a woman can look nice on the first date, if she uses perfume, a guy should wash her teeth at least. This is a basic element, you need to refresh your breath. You wish to impress the girl, to see her again, so sustain your favorite meal if it is necessary.

Did you meet with some bad habits on the first date?

How do you solve this?

Should we respond to negative reviews?

Recently I had a discussion in my social media about negative ratings. There was a situation in Goodreads, where I got two negative reviews on my two books. The point was in the way how the ratings were set up. First rating for my book "Body in the waves" was placed under 5-star review from another reviewer. While the reviewer praising my book, the troll came under to say "This is really bad book." Second rating was described as " Poor author needs writing lessons." Both reviews broke standards of reviewing, because there is no visible evidence that book was downloaded in Kindle unlimited or purchased. It was a clear troll act from a new page, without a profile photo and with a nickname. I reported this to Goodreads and they responded me they are processing this. Meanwhile, I heard from other authors that Goodreads failed to do anything about trolling. In these terms, Goodreads should delete such profiles and forbid the access because of breaking rules. T...

Why the refund is damaging indie authors?

I understand someone can be disappointed with a book. It is like I was disapointed with my trousers online and returned it. What makes a difference, my trousers were 40 euros. The book was 2.49 cents. This makes return funny, because what can you do with this money? Some readers don't understand story behind the refund. The author will get minus royalties. - 0.13 c in my Kindle report, that will vanish when someone else buy the book. The situation happens. Someone accidentaly clicked and bought a book. A random customer wants a refund. Maybe it was not a random move. Maybe the customer clicked, bought and did not like the book. When you don't like the book choose another options, instead of damaging authors. Write a negative review. Write negative one star rating. Don't purchase another books from this author. Or, maybe to reconsider and read it, again? If you write negative reviews or rate it with 1 or 2 stars, you are making a favor to authors. You are moving algorithms i...

Five myths about promo sites

Recently I asked for a featured Bookbub deal for one of my books. I got response that my book should be free priced and my expense would be 230 dollars. This is really funny, because I could expect people grab my book for free and give me one star (as it happens when books are available for everyone). To pay such amount of money would be waste and without a purpose. I am mix of traditional and indie author. Having a publisher, but not bestseller books, I am looking for ways to increase my book sales. Promo sites like Bookbub are very expensive and they offer their deals for 25% books from authors who applied for this. I had an insight to author's books who grabbed Bookbub deals. It works will authors who are already selling a good amount of their books. In general, promo sites are not working for favor of indie authors. These are five myths about promo sites: Promo sites give many readers. It is not true, because you will get visibility and many trolls, but not readers. Promo sites...
