well my friend broke up with her bf cause he stinked. n never told him n right after i got a bf who really smelled bad because we were in gym. so he knew because ppl was always saying stay away from me u stink n he just thought it was funny. so some ppl kno n probably just want to smell there stink n other ppl yea i think they would want to kno. maybe leave a note in there locker.

it depends on how close you are to that friend. Well, if I have the chance, I should say it nicely and tell her/him honestly. It would be really for your friend if you won't tell her the truth. what are friends for, anyway?

oops, i mean it would be unfair for your friend if you won't tell her the truth.

eheh beh i think is too much embarassing so it depends from friends and people such as if i know that this affirmation can be wrong for that people i will say nothing and so i will do as nothing happened..if normally it is an easy-going people or have a behaviour like that..so may be yes..but i am not very comfortable to underline that towards people in general!!

If it's a one time occurance no biggie. Just casually say in conversation that you are looking forward to a hot bath or nice shower tonight ect. Now if it's constant then that's a toughie like you may need to keep your distance if it really offends you & offer subtle gifts for holiday & b-day like those shower & lotion gift sets.
Though on the other hand we have my SIL visiting & her youngest has some strong BO for a 10yo & I can tell her as a child she needs to put on some deoderant!

Oh yes I would tell a friend if I think they smell and I would expect the same. Friends don't let friends be smelly.

If he/she really a close friend, then I will definitely tell him/her. It's a friend job for such thing and my friend will definitely understand. If we're not so close, I prefer to be quite about it. He/she will not be able to accept my words as advice and may get annoyed with it. Let his/her close to tell him/her about it.

ofcourse, i would tell him immediately about it and help him get rid of it. you cannot let your friend stink in front of others and get embarrased.
Immediately ...
