How Do I Tell My Gf That I Don’t Like Her Cooking? by greatdylan10(m): 1:06am On Jan 16, 2018
Don’t judge me on this, guys but yes, my girlfriend’s cooking is horrible. Don’t get me wrong though, I love how hard she tries and I appreciate her efforts, but dang, I can’t seem to hide it any longer. I need to get this off my chest because I’m going to be visiting her for the 3rd time in her hometown in Colombia and I don’t want to go through another homemade dinner with her.
I want our relationship to have complete honesty and a sense of comfortability which is why I think I’ll start it off with this. I met her through a romance tour a few months back and boy, was I in for a treat in the kitchen. The first time she brought me home and cooked for me, I almost choked (literally.) The second time, I had hoped her cooking skills would improve but was I dead wrong.
Now, I want to break the news to her but I don’t know how to start the conversation. Should I play it safe and tell her through chat or in person? If I do it online, she might not respond me for who knows how long but if I do it in person, she might get mad at me and kick me out.
I know how important cooking skills are for women and I don’t want to hurt her feelings but I gotta do this. Help me out here, guys. I need to break the ice!

Invite her friends to dinner. Then tell her to cook.

She will sign up for cooking classes the next day.

No need to tell her!

Can you cook? When she's in the kitchen, join and save your stomach from hardship.
Re: How Do I Tell My Gf That I Don’t Like Her Cooking? by donstan18: 1:13am On Jan 16, 2018
You dare not tell a woman straight that she can't cook, it's kinda rude, imagine a woman telling you "you can't fvck", how do you see that?, dame embarrassing, I guess.

What am I tryna imply?, i'm in a way trying to let you know that there are ways it should be done,and mind you, you don't conclude a woman being a bad cook, because how you see her food might be way different from how others sees it, it depends on how the different family run delicacies. If you really don't enjoy her food, start getting close to her in the kitchen to help her out, if you can cook, but if you can't, start getting use to her food for the moment, indirectly add cooking topics while discussing or gisting with her, pretend by getting some food manuals for yourself, watch food programs and channels with her, you can aswell tell your sisters, you know, for them to get close to her and indirectly help her out.

i believe telling her literally would cause a stir in your relationship so i suggest you tell her indirectly


eg take a couple of cooking books and manuals with you on your next visit and make sure you dont conceal them so she can see them and then...........(you can take it from there) lipsrsealed

Just tell her she needs cooking lessons... chances are, she knows damn well that she can't cook...heck, even terrible cooks know what tasty foods taste like...so, she knows.
She might be embarrassed though, but common, how much more can you take?

Not all girls are dramatic... He should just tell her in a polite manner if he's really into her, then she could start learning with the simple meals first...

Nah, I believe women have the most refined taste buds available to humans. At least one of her friends would tell her that's she's prepared nonsense.

You no sabi cook? shocked shocked
