that is difficult!!i mean to inform your friend about something that is too personal especially on hygiene thing issues..but i guess i had experience that..what i do was i give her some tissue to wipe it off..but not before i do some wiping first on my own thinking that i have too...in that way she will know ...without embarrasing her on the process...what about you ??

you are so nice... thinking the very best way of informing something sensitive but funny thing like booger in his/her nose to your beloved friend in such a way that you'll not be offending him/her! Doing such an act of removing something inside your own nose can make him/her think that he/she has something too inside his/her nose as well. Thanks for your fabulous answer. :)

I would tell my friend "You need to wipe your nose" we don't want an accident to happen where it may fall out, bounce off your lip and who knows where it might land.

Hello Jhordie, When it will be my close friend and we are in public, I will give her a sign pointing out my nose so it will not be very obvious to some people. We always do that with my friend, either eye and nose dirt! LOL!

I think it would be pretty hard to say that politely. You could hand them a tissue I guess and hope they would figure it out.

if they're a close friend,i'd probably just pull them aside and tell them point blank.there's really no other way you can say "hey,you have a booger hanging out your nose".

Oh dear! That is a quandry!
I would not know how to do such a thing.
You cannot simply help your friend out by
removing the offending item. They would swat
your hand away.
Some people do this.
They look at the other person
and touch or squeeze their own nose.
Then they sort of nod at the person.
I cannot explain it better in words.
It's sort of like saying,
"Hey, there's something on (or in) your nose!"
Most times, I simply don't look or stand to the
side where I cannot see the offending thing
in the nose.
Thank you very much for the hilarious post.
It is refreshing and light.
My best wishes for you.
God bless and be well!
