Beautiful, Caring & Intelligent But Cant Cook - Please Advise by skup008(m): 12:26pm On Sep 27, 2012
Its less than a year that i met this lovely gal,she is very beautiful,caring,very religious and we love each other so much.

she is actually the first lady i will ever love with my whole heart as i always dream of keeping her as a wife. But the problem am having with her is that she can't cook,she can't prepare any meal at all and she's also very lazy when it comes to domestic works and any time i raise the issue, she always react as if she never care to learn how to do them,at times she tell that i shouldn't worry that she will change and learn how to cook very soon,that is when she notice am very serious or not happy about the issue.

I now want Nairalanders to advise me on what to do that can force her to learn how to cook and do other domestic works...

Thanks

[size=20pt] You cant force her to change,it is either you live with that for the rest of your life or you pull out of the relationship.
You can always employ a housemaid to do the chores and cooking.

My 2 Cent.
You cant change her,except she decides to change herself,its either you embrace her and her shortcomings or you pull out of the relationship.
If you expect her to change on your terms,I can assure you,you will be left dissapointed for the rest of your life [/size]

poster

since you are a good cook you can teach her. This would seriously improve your relationship.

if she is lazy with house chores, that is something you should watchout for. You can't spend your life with a woman that is a slob. This makes me wonder the type of home she lives in. Does she clean her home? and how does she survive? does she eat out morning afternoon and night?

also what the heck is the attitude of "just hire a maid"?

Buy her a cooking manual. She should place it beside the pot while cooking. First 3meals might just be awful but trust me, you will enjoy the fourth grin

Well, the greater part of the decision depends on you. What exactly can you cope with?

As for me;
You said she's loving and caring but she lacks domestic responsibilities.
If she's not a great cook, I can manage but house chores again; not interested. With the nature of my job, I really need a woman in the house that can administer proper care, cleaning and upbringing for our kids. If she can't clean her own room and house, what will Junior do? Charity begins at home. I want the best for my kids and being independent is inclusive. If my Junior can not learn to take care of the home while growing up, what kind of father and husband will he grow up to be?

So, I'm looking at a bigger picture here.

But Marriage is also about helping your soul mates. If you truly want the marriage to work, you'd have to HELP her too. Let her know being lazy is NOT an option if she wants you too. If she's truly caring, then she'd want your happiness. So, take advantage of times spent with her to clean your house, do the dishes, do some cooking while listening to music and flirting-along during the process. At least she must be willing to spend time with you if she's TRULY caring ooo.

And how come a Nigerian girl cannot cook and take care of the house at the same time? Even if na Dangote be her papa..?

Not everybody know how to cook or clean. It has nothing to with etnicity or family structure. Maybe her parents taught her how but she can seems to master it. Itis not the end of tbe world. I am sure she can cook basic things but he wants her to be a chef and she is not one.

Being an independent woman doesn't automatically make you a man! And it really pains me when women blame their inability to be a real woman on "independence!" A woman should be a woman anytime any day! Being independent is just an added advantage!

@ op, I'm gonna be as blunt as possible...... The worst thing that can ever happen to a man is to marry a woman who can't cook or keep a house together! A woman is supposed to be a home maker! Forget this love matter.......na u go tire by the time it starts frustrating you! This is not yankee or Jand! This is Africa for goodness sake! Here in Naija, men come home from their hectic jobs to a delicious home made meal prepared by their lovely wives, not order for chinese food joor! Don't even think of house helps cos its gonna get worse, and the lineage passes over to ur kids (girls) cos a snake begets a snake! If she can learn fine, in fact if she truly loves you and she know what marriage is all about she shouldn't wait for you to say something before she starts making an effort! But if she doesn't want to make an effort pls drop her like she is hot!

In fact, she is even missing a lot! Oh yes! She is missing that innermost joy that every woman feels when the man she love eats her food and almost chop the plate join cos he enjoys her meal!
