Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Nobody:
I view a movie last night where a lady boyfriend's mum asked her to join her in the kitchen to cook.
She politely declined saying this is her first visit as a guest to the home and should be treated as such.

Although is a movie but it do happens in the real world.

Was the lady right for declining to help her boyfriend's mum to cook?
*OR*
On the other hand was the boyfriend's mum right in inviting her to the kitchen to cook as well?

Let's talk.

I wonder o. It tires to see girls counting on every little thing on selfish basis. Cooking does not make u any cheap in any way. And if she thinks she doesn't like d idea, let her just do it and don't ever visit them again. Besides if she planned on getting married to him, she has created a deep impression that her future would-be mother-in-law won't ever forget by refusing to join her in d kitchen cus the mother is making that request based on how much her son had told her about the girl. They may never marry cus of that. Whether something serious is between her and her bf or not, as a respectful girl all she needed do is help the woman who asked for her help. Simple! By doing that, she's cleared the air for now and future. And she had better know how to cook cus it could turn out to be her first examination..

You can't expect me to cook on MY FIRST VISIT..
Maybe on the 2nd or 3rd meeting.. haba


Am I a househelp, that on the first day of introduction you will be flexing mother in-law power.. Abeg the girlfriend was right.

First meetings with parents are meant for formal introduction.
Then after the first meeting
I get used to his mother and then we can now get along, crack jokes with each other before I step into your kitchen to cook with you.

Alright madam

What will be your response when your boo mum calls you to join her in the kitchen?
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by cooooooks(m): 10:17am On Apr 22, 2020
I support the girlfriend.
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by mezarddinny: 10:21am On Apr 22, 2020
the girlfriend is right, why you go tell person wey come your house first time make she come cook, una no dey cook before?
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Guest911: 10:27am On Apr 22, 2020
The girlfriend is right.

She was invited into the kitchen and declined.
It doesn’t prove disrespect or lack of cooking skills.

It only proves she’s a realist and would not fake her respect. Besides respect is mutual and the mother should give her some dignity at the very least.
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Kingpinukecy(m): 11:00am On Apr 22, 2020
Am just looking at her right now with one eye
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Sunshyne200(m): 11:15am On Apr 22, 2020
What if the mum wanted to do that to show the lady that she is as much welcome and part of the family as can be, not to check the culinary skills, but to make her comfortable.

What if the mom feels she wants to establish a relationship with her would be sis-inlaw.

The response of the girl already showed someone who came for war?

I am sure the first day she visited the guy, she slept with him self.

Yeye policy, try that with my mum and we are done.

Arrant disrespect

so for your mind now...
an elderly woman who is the mother of your boyfriend asked you as a woman to join her to cook the. food that all of you will eat is disrespect.

Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Nobody: 11:48am On Apr 22, 2020
Well as for me,what the girl did was absolutely right.
For God sake is her first visit na,Courtesy demand the boyfriend's mum to do that maybe when she visits another time.
Because you are a mother or an elderly woman doesn't give you the right to boss me around on one flimsy African culture.
I like women that stand for their right and damn the consequences.
Respect is mutual and reciprocal.
The boyfriend's mum lost it.

Their isn't any iota of disrespect in what the poor girl did.
Is like giving a dog a bad name in order to hang it,the simple truth about most mother-in-laws is this.
They want to be the one taking the shot in been in the centre of decision making in the lives of their married Son's.
And any man that allow this just show that he is still a boy and not a man.
Can't marry such man that will run to his mum for any decision concerning our union.
What the girl did is right and polite.
I hate nonsense.

Are you for real?
Gosh, there is nothing bad in a lady helping her mother inlaw to cook in the kitchen in fact the reason for inviting her over can be just to know her better so that they can have " the women gist"
women like you will never and I say never last in their husband's house because they want to flex one stupid and nitwit muscles.
Infact does she even have to invite you before you help out? you can't help out yet you can eat. If I b for guy, the kind look wey I go give you ehn, u go run

Anty, mummy, granny, it seems you are having issues with comprehension. The mum only asked her to aid her in the kitchen, please what is the big deal there? A wise lady will jejely accept this kind gesture and even turn the whole event into jokes and play so as to connect with the mother. In fact she will even try to have good amebo gist with the mother and from their she creates a friend for life.
ladies like you make their husband's mother look evil meanwhile you are the witch yourself forgetting that you will some day be a mother

Ma don't worry, I will cook with you NEXT TIME I VISIT Okay?
But if you need a helping hand in dishing out food, I will help with that.."
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Rawhumper(m): 12:07pm On Apr 22, 2020
Mother is mother,she was there for us.....a wife is someone we didnt know before nor knew how were still The day we Met.
I think what any matured Guy should so is reason with d mother ans also respect her wifes feelings.
Both Are important in a mans life,it Takes wisdom and patience to deal with both

How is aiding my mum in kitchen led to her being a slave? This is the same food she will open her mouth to eat in fact doing this shows she has respect for her own mum and not just mine.
You want to get married to me but you are already having ego issues with my mum. Abegi, she will not last in the marriage. Imagine one nitwit doing such to mum and see if you will take it easy with her

women like you will never and I say never last in their husband's house because they want to flex one stupid and nitwit muscles
I will gladly cook with my mother in law any day anytime
But NOT ON THE FIRST MEETING!!!
Are you dumb that u can't read??

Do you start working the first day you do a job interview?? Noo
Do you start asking for sex the first day you meet a girl?? Noo
There are certain things you don't do on a first meeting with someone..
The mother inlaw should know how to respect her visitors.
The next time I come then now I'm familiar with everyone so I will gladly join her in the kitchen without her asking.

A Sensible Mother will not allow any Stranger posing as fiancee into her personal kitchen on the first day without knowing each other very well.
Her food can get poisoned
She can put charm in her food
So not on the first day u invite stanger into your kitchen.
Unless your mumsi is dumb as a rock..

If for any reason, Folorunsho Alakija, Mike Adenuga's wife, Femi Otedola or Dangote's wife asks you such to join her in the kitchen and not wanting any of their cooks involved.

Kindly give such answer. You will regret the day you were born by ur parents.You will be thrown out like a peice of thrash.

When millions of pretty naija girls are dreaming of just an oppotunity with such family.

All these poor people thinking.

Being polite is part of the attribute of a highly educated and exposed person.
Re: Who Is Right! His Girlfriend Or His Mum? by Guest911: 12:54pm On Apr 22, 2020
Why does everyone make it seem like the girl would suddenly die if she didn’t get to eat the food?
No one should be forced to do what they don’t want to do period.

The poor girl was not in the mood just for the first time oo and then boom she’s not a wife material

She’s a human being with dignity not a mere object

Here is how I know you are POOR
You don't even know rich parents

First of all no rich parent in the entire universe will stop their son from marrying someone because of cooking skills
This is another point where I know you have never tasted rich Lifestyle.
Rich people don't even cook themselves so why will they expect me to cook??
When you will have plenty of professional chefs lined up for service.
Try again boy.. only poor people worry about marrying woman that cook.

Rich folks have professional chefs paid to cook the finest meals ever. NEXT!!
