On public transportation, or public places, have you ever encountered being on such places/transportation wherein you are dealing with a passenger/customer with a very bad odor? In a way it is really disturbing but we can’t do anything about it because we don’t know them personally but it is really hard to cope up acting naturally wherein fact the location is not appealing well in terms of smell.
It’s not that I am really meticulous but it is really no doubt disturbing and disgusting most especially when you are in public place such as in a restaurant, it is really not appealing to inhale such smell.
Please share your thoughts…

Opss..I can relate to this.
Please not on restaurants I can't bear such odor and that will surely lose my appetite.
But on public transport that would surely dose me off (lols, hope I won't throw up)
Body odor is one thing that I wish to encounter on public places but one thing that we cannot avoid as well.

LOL, i think it's normally in human life to encounter people who are suffering from sever foul body odor 
and we really can't do nothing on it, not unless if you know the person very well and try to tell him or her politely but the thing though is he/she is a complete stranger and telling such is an offensive way that might trigger a commotion 
.
Thanks for your response.

Well, I would feel the same way as you do. Actually, I was on an airplane from Oman. My family was headed home. We had a stop over. When the plane doors opened, gosh, the smell was terrible. And even the new passengers that came in had an awful smell. couldn't do anything about it but endure the 16 hour flight.

I did experience also having a passenger beside me on a plane from a domestic flight from my place to Manila and it was way, awkward but i have nothing to do about it because i cannot correct the person who has a foul smell because i don't even know him personally. LOL 
Thanks for your reply.

oh my, oh my. This i can relate to as i am a public transport commuter. I have had a lot of experiences with the bus, and most of the time at the MRT stations or trains. There were a lot of these people who really needs to take a bath if you ask me. Its just so sickening and gives me the headache. If i encounter one, i would always just have a white flower ready with me and pretend to be having colds so i'd sniff that instead of me sniffing the odor, i'd better have the smell of menthol then.

LOL I do feel the same way when it comes to such public transportation, or such incident. Although, i don't do public transpo. no more, but back in the days when i was still young, i do experience such and there is nothing we can do about it but to endure a foul smell. HA HA HA HA HA

It is inevitable to have foul odor in the passenger seat with other passengers. Imagining the rushed hour, all the sweats excreted uncontrollably. If a person so delicate or meticulous, they can stand staying inside the vehicle. For me, I don't mind at all, it happens for such situation.

True it happens in some situation although it is no doubt unappealing in the smell of the place, we really have no choice but to just wait until that person is gone in the area.
Thanks for your response.

I encountered this situation many times, and I even remember one time when I rode a bus, it was so unfortunate for me to sit with a smelly chic. 
The bust was full so I can't transfer to another seat so I just tried to ignore it but it's not easy I tell you. We can not really judge these people because as you have said we don't know them. The best way to deal with these people is to just ignore them and try to act as natural as you possibly can. Haha!

It's uncomfortable but this so happens and we have nothing to do but to wait until the person went out of the location.

Sometimes I encounter people who can't stand the bad smell and just say something rude. Haha! People...

I would find a different seat - be kind and polite - but find somewhere else to sit. Why should anyone have to put up with someone else who is not considering other people. If someone is rude, I don't care to be around them. I consider other people and prefer to be with people who are consider as well.

True, just go with the flow and just handle it in a way that no one is offended about such situation.
Thanks for your response.
