And quite obviously I'm trying to do somthing about it. I take no offence. I was looking for help, and advising myself to grow up realy wasn't any. Good efort tho buddy.

We have no other problems. This isn't even a problem. I think it is a medical condition and I am concerned for him. I appreciate him more then you could ever imagine and I let him know it. Perhaps you need to grow up and think about a question more closely before you try and answer it.

Some of us just have metabolisms that crank out a lot of heat and there is very little that can be done about it other than keeping clean and trying to smell nice. I live somewhere where it gets very hot in the summer and if I slept without the air con on it would be quite unpleasant. In fact when the aircon fails I've been known to sleep in the bath.
So, crank up that air conditioning and then snuggle up to a nice warm body.

Sometimes it can destroy a relationship because the feeling is overwhelming then it just takes a little thing in the relationship itself (argument) and this will become huge. I had a very hairy boyfriend - his pubic and body hair was very dark and plentiful. It was everywhere all the time and I was sick of cleaning it up or picking it off me or other objects - towels, bathroom floor, stuck to walls, bed linen you name it. In the end it destroyed my attraction to him because there were other things also wrong - that was like the icing on the cake. Think carefully. Is this the only thing or one of many issues??

Well apart from the obvious - showers, anti-persperant, etc
Is his diet healthy? Does he eat a lot of one thing like meat that could cause his sweat to smell?
If he really is sweating too much then he should go to the doctor as there are treatments. Other than that he just has to shower a lot and keep drinking water so it doesn't get all the bad stuff concentrated in it.
Good Luck!! xx
