Let me start with what I am facing for the last 2 years now. My wife doesn't know how to cook and I have been telling her to improve on it but she believes that she knows how to cook and I am the only one that complain about her food. This weekend my mother visited us and she cooked for us and what my wife cooked through out the weekend was rubbish and I didn't say anything but my mum called me yesterday that I should do something about it, my wife didn't want to hear anything about it again and I don't want to quarrel with her because I love her and she is my backbone in all my success,please I need your advice on what to do?

LadySarah:
If you know you can teach her

loneprof:


Well sorry to read about this. If her cooking is so bad, you can try to discuss the possibility of enrolling her in a catering school (weekends) so she can improve on her cooking, that's if she is willing to give it a shot. Otherwise, I advise you volunteer to cook the meals sometimes so she can know you're serious about her cooking flaws. Sometimes women make a big deal out of their cooking especially if the man never enters the kitchen, so I'm sure if you're willing to do this, it would send a strong message to her.

Either ways, do everything in love, without making her feel like you're condemning her and I hope you guys will get it sorted out.

Richy4:
Cooking should be the least of your problems.. What were you guys doing during courtship? U mean u did not invite her over to do a bit of cooking? If not, Didn't she explain to you during courtship that she doesn't like cooking? Did it enter into one ear and disappear from the other while u sit drinking in her beauty?

Judge Richy's ruling

OP..Your case is hereby dismissed

Herdamorlar:

Thanks so much,she doesn't want to go to any training but I will start to cook my food by myself now to know I am serious about it

VeeVeeMyLuv:
I find it hard to believe that a woman will cook for 2 years and it did not improve to your standard or u did not get accustomed to enjoy her meals.

Many factors might be responsible

1. The quality of the ingredients. Does she go to the market to select the ingredients in a bad mood.
2. Unfamiliar ingredients
3. Insufficient processing of the food items/ingredients.
4. Too much or too little flavour/seasoning
5. Timing is also critical, adding the ingredients at the wrong time can affect the outcome.
6. Might be their traditional/cultural way of preparing food in her village which to her is delicious like Domino pizza.

U might want to consider taking her to chef school. many homes are upping their game when it comes to preparation and presentation of food. Your home should not be left behind.

She doesn't even need to go to any catering school when YouTube is there with great recipes.


The problem with some ladies is, they can do their all just to get into that marriage but the moment they are in the drive and motivation s
Is lost.

What will it take her to search on YouTube.

Last week, I felt like preparing pepper soup myself at home cos it's getting pretty expensive where I normally buy ( from a guys restaurant o) though I have the Idea but it been long since I made pepper soup. So I quickly went to YouTube and got a nice recipe. Mehnn because it was home cooked, I really took my time and I enjoyed it.

Let her go on YouTube, Biko.

Mood11:
Because your wife doesn't know how to cook you want to find out what others are facing so that you will be sure you are not alone

Don't worry, you are not alone.. My own wife doesn't know how to lay our bed and it was an issue till I realised we don't even need bedsheets on our bed

Herdamorlar:

Thanks too,but I think I don't want you to go to courtship because we all know love is blind and you think that you can cope with it but later on you realise you cannot

Herdamorlar:

Thanks so much,she doesn't want to go to any training but I will start to cook my food by myself now to know I am serious about it

EmperorMaria:

As a man, you must learn how to make yourself happy and live a joyful life. My wife's younger sister asked me this morning, she said it seems all the men that married her sisters, all of them have lost their fathers, i just smile and told her, it's not just your inlaw, i can count a handful of people around me who doesn't have fathers and hardly will you see people without mothers.

It's obvious life is not easy for men, the cost of living is getting high everyday and when you have to shoulder a whole lot of responsibilities couple with the insecurity in the country, you will see that there is so much for one man to handle. Lucky are those whose wife is hard working and willing to support, Lucky are those whose family is rich and everyday can fend for themselves if not, you will also have to add the load of extended family to the loads you carry. You see, most will always died early.

The most unlucky of them all is a man whose wife also nag ontop this plenty wahala you carry and doesn't give him peace. This set of men will even die earlier.

so i asked myself, for all the pain and struggle of men, how best can they enjoy themselves? If you choose to flex with women, you create more problems for yourself and scatter your family, if you choose beer and other drinks, you create health problems for yourself, these momentary enjoyment is like adding salt to injury.

Lucky is the man whose wife makes him happy and give peace, lucky is the man whose children grow up to be responsible and make him proud in life, for these are his only benefits in life. Because you will have peace and joy and live till old age.

Husbands are going through a lot in the home but the way God created us,we always try to keep it to ourselves and nobody will know what we are facing in our home,The motive of creating this is for married men to share their problems and give advice on how we can solve from our experience so far. I have been battling alone with this issue in my home and I think it is better to have likely minds that we can share our problems and find the solution among married men.

let me start with what I am facing for the last 2 years now. My wife doesn't know how to cook and I have been telling her to improve on it but she believes that she knows how to cook and I am the only one that complain about her food. This weekend my mother visited us and she cooked for us and what my wife cooked through out the weekend was rubbish and I didn't say anything but my mum called me yesterday that I should do something about it, my wife didn't want to hear anything about it again and I don't want to quarrel with her because I love her and she is my backbone in all my success,please I need your advice on what to do?

mariahAngel:


But all these does not solve the food problem na...and man gats eat belleful

Elder0001:
If you cook for yourself will you die?

DriggityDre:

Hafa, Plead. Didn't even know you were still around.

Elder0001:

Na once once I dey enter nairaland and WhatsApp (actually the only social media platforms I'm on).
