For background, my partner’s ex had absolutely no symptoms, apparently. She didn’t even know she was pregnant. So I’m guessing he feels like babies just magically appear or something

In my first trimester, I had hypermesis, and I’ve recently managed to pull myself out of that hole. But I still have an INSANE amount of sensitivity to smell.

I hide a lot of that sensitivity. When he doesn’t shower, I don’t say anything about his hair reeking. I don’t mention his stinky ass pillow. I don’t complain about his sickly sweet vape clouds.

The only thing I cannot hide and cope with is breath. When it comes to kissing or intimacy, I simply cannot deal with the smell of his breath.

But when I ask him to brush his teeth, he gets upset. He accuses me of just wanting to get out of intimacy or avoid him. I am UNCOMFORTABLY h*rny, so no, I would LOVE to be intimate.

Instead of brushing his teeth or doing anything, he scoots away, and pouts. I feel like an awful person for not just keeping my mouth shut and dealing with the smell. But I can’t even get aroused with him huffing the stink all over my neck.

He brushes his teeth after he wakes up, but vapes and doesn’t drink any water whatsoever, so his mouth is dry and ends up with a specific smell.

I already hide a lot of my smell aversions, and I silently suffer through a lot of other symptoms too because I cannot deal with the guilt.

I could go on for hours.
