I have on many occassions smelt bad breath when speaking to some people. I would wish to know whether the bad breath was from me or from the other person. Can I smell my own breath, if I am the guilty one ? Can certain situations cause people to produce bad breath e.g. when you are tense, anxious, selfconscious etc. ? I think so, as I have experienced it. Help on this appreciated. Thanks.
