I have been dating this guy for a couple months now. I really like him, however his hairy back is really getting to me. I want to suggest nair or waxing, but not sure how to go about this. Any suggestions?

Chances are, he's very self conscious of it and would do anything to NOT have hair on his back. That is a very private thing for a lot of guys and probably not something that he is very comfortable with talking about, as that situation is probably a vulnerable one for him. If it's not a deal breaker with you, I would say that sooner or later, he's going to bring it up...whether it's something that comes up when you're in the shower together or before a trip to the beach (or anywhere that he will be shirtless). I dated a guy with a hairy back and he was VERY sensitive about it. I would not say anything to him until he brings it up (either directly or indirectly). Then you would have an opening to suggest nair or waxing. Otherwise, if you bring it up, you are just going to make him that much more self conscious of it.

Guy input time....

Once upon a time, my SO and I made reservations to go on a cruise. I worried for weeks how to ask her if she would help me nair my back so I would look OK w/o shirt all week. Guys don't like it, I finally got laser removal (NOT CHEAP), but I think that UNCCUTIE had the right idea : as summer approaches, he is thinking about it. You'd be surprised that some guys may not worry about it nearly as much in private, as they might in public WITH you. If such a situation arises - offer and save him dislocated shoulder or razor burn.

Well, one thing you can say by him having a hairy back... he definitely has male hormones!
