s/o Coffee smells very, very bad

[Anonymous]

Am I the only one who thinks this? I can't stand the smell of coffee, coffee breath, or the smell of coffee shops.
In college I dreaded coffee shop study groups. I always went and didn't complain but silently I wished we could meet someone where else. Sometimes I would suggest an alternate location but I understood why the rest of the coffee loving world thought it was a convenient meeting spot.

Don't get me wrong. I am not a health nut or a goody-two shoes. I eat sugar and will drink on occasion, I just never found coffee appealing.
When I tell people I never had a cup of coffee in my 40 years they are always surprised. I don't go into the whole I hate the smell of it thing, I just accept the coffee date and order tea.

FWIW my father did drink coffee when I was growing up but my mother didn't start drinking it until she was older (maybe close to the age I am now). We never had a coffee maker at home (parents still don't now) but everyone else in my family does drink coffee. Typically at work or at a restaurant.

So just wondering, am I really the only person who doesn't like coffee? The lines at Starbucks and Filter would say yes but I have to think there is at least one other person who agrees.

coffee is foul. i hate sitting in meetings where everyone brings coffee - it's truly nauseating.
coffee breath is even worse.

Hunh.

Love coffee. Drinking a cup now, in fact. MMmmmmm.

Coffee breath, blech.

Particularly black coffee breath.

Nope, can't relate on this one. I love the smell of coffee.

But yeah, of course coffee breath is bad. Let's face it -- smelling ANY breath is bad.

I love coffee (I'm an addict, actually) but I agree about coffee breath. Ick. My husband really dislikes coffee - nothing about it is appealing to him. So no, you aren't alone!
