So i had the first date last week, all went well but it ended a bit out of nowhere, got an important call and had to leave asap. She seemed understanding so we met for the 2nd time today.

Again everything went right untill i started thinking of going for the kiss. Personally there isn't the perfect time for that but this time around it just seemed right and i wanted to get to it untill i smelled her breath and i don't want to sound mean but it turned me off so much i didn't go for it.

This is like the 2nd time it happened when i was with a girl and i just can't seem to kiss a girl who has a severe case of bad breath. I didn't notice it at all untill at that very moment. I never have the problem when it comes to kissing untill it's related to this sort of situation.

Now the girl wants to meet for the 3rd time and i'm like, she looks good but 1st of all am i not friendzoned now since in her eyes i still didn't went for the kiss? 2nd of all, should i even go through with this or quit it all together. I actually want to tell her but i don't want to come over as rude at the same time. I might hurt her self esteem with that.

I honostly really like her but the hygiene part is what bothers me.
