Embarrassing, Awkward, Students and Smells: Assumptions

Assumptions

Today, while in class, I noticed that someone had really bad B.O. I was seated next to an extremely ill-mannered girl, so I figured it was her, and thought to myself that if it happened again, I'd tell her off. Once I got home and took off my jacket, I realized it was me. I forgot to put on deodorant. FML

Today, I was running around the track at school PE with a lot of other students. I noticed a guy who smelled really bad and I thought to myself how disgusting that was and I felt bad for him. Later, I was changing and caught a whiff of my shirt. It wasn't him who was smelly. FML

Today, I was in a rush to get to work and forgot to put on deodorant. I didn't realize until my coworker told me I smelled like a gym sock. FML

Today, I went to the mall with some friends. We all kept smelling this god awful B.O. smell and had no idea where it was coming from. On the car ride home, we all figured out it was actually me. FML

Today, while at work, I was trying to locate the source of the really bad BO wafting around, when I realized I'd forgotten to put on deodorant this morning. I have 5 hours of shame left to go. FML

Today, as I was getting ready to go to class, I accidentally stepped in dog poop. I was in a hurry, so I scraped it off as best as I could. When I go to class, I noticed it smelled. The girl behind me noticed and said, "Mmmmm, smells like food in here." FML

Today, I was walking into class when the guy i like walked in and said "Gross it smells like grandma in here. What, did someone bathe in their perfume today?" I was the only girl in the room and I just bought new perfume. I thought I smelled good, apparently I didn't. FML

Today, I was at a restaurant waiting for a table. Some lady walked by, smelling like BO and patchouli oil. I attempted to cover my nose with my sweatshirt, but I thumped a small girl in the process. FML

Today, I was in class and I smelled what I thought was month-old trash coming from a student in front of me. I politely ignored the smell, only to realize a few hours later that the persistent smell wasn't coming from every student in my university, but was from my shoes. FML

Contagion

Today, my mother chewed me out for not wearing deodorant and smelling of B.O. I was wearing plenty of deodorant. My shirt just smelled like my boyfriend, whom I'd been cuddling with earlier. FML

Today, while applying deodorant, my mom came up behind me slapped the stick out of my hand, and confiscated it, saying, “No one needs deodorant when it’s this cold.” At work, I got so many complaints about my B.O that I was sent home to go take a shower. I shower every single day. FML

I tried to say no when I moderated this... for the OP's sake. OP, you're going to have to deal with people telling you that you're a moronic piece of shit for making a simple mistake. I wouldn't read the rest of the comments if I were you.

How could your body odor be that bad simply because you forgot deodorant? Perhaps you should try showering...

Um, but I know what my own BO smells like (from the very few times I forgot to put deodorant on).

Not an fml. Nobody acknowledged disgust on your part.

I don't feel sorry for you. i mostly feel sorry for all of the people who had to read this and that girl you were sitting next to. she was probably thinking... who smells like an italian sub with extra cheese

If someone never realizes the extent of their problems, they con never hope to solve them. If the woman actually did have BO, she probably wouldn't have been aware, and would have gone through life being ignored and mistreated by people for her smell. Sometimes knowing you have a problem is better than ignorance. You'll feel bad for a few days when someone tells you something like that, which is much better in the long run than the effects of smelling horrible the rest of your life. But in this case the op is a dumb bitch.
