You can teach her.

That's the essence of what the first response to your post was.

Reiterating what the poster said; it's the attitude about the issue that matters, why she can't cook. That same attitude will determine if she's humble enough to learn how to cook. Sadly, though, a lot of females see it as a thing of pride to not know how to cook...to them it's no big deal and they shouldn't be pressured about even learning how to when there are "more important" issues that make and keep a loving and successful relationship.

the question is, what was she doing when her mates were learning how to cook? a well brought up girl wouldn't be lacking in that area. it's a Big" NO " for me! she should go and learn how to cook, there are catering schools every where. it's not all about having a vagina between your legs, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

are you saying I should be the one cooking or I should hire a cook because my wife works? I don't and will never need her money, let her just do her duties.

How many of you lads can actually be patient enough to be with a lady who cannot cook but willing to learn? People are so quick to break relationships these days over little things.
For example when my dad(God bless his soul) met my mom, she didn't even know how to make ordinary pap but he didn't judge her or push her away, instead he taught her everything he knows.
If someone you actually like is lagging in an area, you complement them. Too bad most relationships now are based on selfish interests with very weak bond.

So before you leave that lady because she can't cook, Think twice.
can you marry man that can't provide or protect?

See doesn't need to learn how to cook. If she genuinely loves me and is loyal, I don't mind doing the cooking. I can even employ a cook.
For how long though ??
Can you totally trust strangers to always prepare yours and your children's meals ??
What about hygiene ??

Re: Can You Date A Lady Who Cannot Cook? by Acetin: 7:56pm On Feb 27, 2019
Seriously, every man or woman should know how to cook. Food is a basic thing of life, we cannot live without foods, so why won’t you know how to cook.
The problem now is that most girls are happy and proud that they don’t even know how to cook... they are not even ready to learn.
A married woman that doesn’t know how to cook, shouldn’t be called a mother.
What Then makes you a mother.

NB: Everyone deserves to know how to cook, whether man or woman

I can cook very well as a guy so it will be hard for me to marry or date a lady that can't cook. Eating outside often it very bad for the health because you can never tell what are you putting in your belly being that anyone can do anything to keep their business afloat like mixing old food with new meals just so it doesn't waste and using dirty water to cook or wash. Even sweat dropping inside food as they cook and sometimes worth things you can't imagine.

I just can't imagine how many guys especially out there have been feeding on girls menses in that their favorite restaurant and they don't know.

Anyhow how sha the truth is that fresh food is always good at home so if a man as to work hard to provide good things for his home, he should have a good woman that is ready to take care of the home and keep him healthy by preparing good meals for him.

When kids are grown up and can do certain things themselves then the idea of house maid or helpers can come in but as young married couples I believe its necessary for the lady to ensure her hubby eats good meals at home even if she works or not.

In summary, character. Listing them one after the other still sums up to Character. So if a lady is an excellent cook but has a bad character, you cannot change that except she decides to change which can still be a farce.

But if she has a good character and other good qualities but cannot cook, i don't see it as an issue to me except she's intentionally not willing to learn but if not, i will contract someone to teach her.
nice submission, but if I'm to have the slightest thought of even marrying someone who doesn't know how to cook, she has to learn it at her father's house or with her own money, it's that a big deal to me irrespective of character.

You seem to be a "real" lady. Honey, the game has changed drastically!. The dating game is just what it is-a game.

Either partner can fool the other for time immemorial when there is an end in sight. The means that justifies that end doesn't matter. Am I speaking in riddles? Maybe, but I shiit you not, a woman can pretend to be all you want her to be for a reason as a man could also. I guess two can play that game.

If she doesn't, she can learn if she puts her mind to it

I love watching telenovelas, so does that mean I don't know how to cook ??
i used telenovella as an example cos i know dats wat can really hook a lady's attention and abandon watever she's doingcheesy. True.. Any lady can learn how to cook if she puts her mind into it.

I am not talking of those ones that can't cook at all o. I don't understand that category who have never given it a shot, but in the absence of that...I maintain not everyone would be a good cook. We would always have the bad and the ugly.

So which category do you fall under? grin

Perhaps an assumption based on personal observations. There's no excuse for a lady not to know how to cook. After all I cooked ogbono for a guy for the first time in my life just last week... Off course I had to consult Google sharply so as not to fumble grin cheesy.

Every woman can have sex. It is not a special skill.

But for a woman to be made a wife, there are two skills that can not be ignored;
1. How to cook healthy, fresh and nutritious organic meals, and I did not say 'delicious', cos some delicious meals are not nutritious and the family requires nutrition in order to be healthy and stay away from Hospitals or graveyard or both. Even if a cook is hired, she must know and re-teach the chef about basic nutrients required by everyone at home individually and the nutritional dynamics of the home and how to help the family stay in shape. It is a real skill that saves lives.

2. A woman must master how to maintain an environment sterlingly clean, such that even if a cleaner is hired, she will never be satisfied with just basic cleaning, but must ensure deep cleaning is conducted with the most environment-friendly and mild cleaning agents for sparkling maintenance of home and gadgets.

It is not the responsibility of a husband to teach a wife these two things. For those who are yet to be married, any lady that can not effectively handle these two skills 101%, do not consider marriage with her. Cos any woman can fucckk, beauty fades, smiles disappear, happiness is illusive and must be constantly invoked.

But if a woman does not thoroughly understand those basic hygiene maintenances and kitchen management. She needs to go and learn it first before accepting a marriage proposal.

I do not care if she works at World Bank and earns 8-figures, money is just a tool. It is the family's health and home management efficiency first before career.

There is no level of compromise here.
