He’s Not Sure How To Get His Girlfriend To See That She Needs To Start Learning How To Cook

This 27-year-old guy has a girlfriend the same age as him, and they have been dating for three years.

They currently live together, and he says that their relationship is pretty excellent. They are even talking about getting married, having kids, and spending their lives together.

Throughout the entire time that he has been dating his girlfriend, she has never made one single meal for herself or for him, and this is the one thing that really irritates him about her.

Once in a blue moon, she will throw together scrambled eggs for her breakfast, but that is the extent of her skills in the kitchen.

On the flip side, he cooks every single day just about, and he makes lunch as well as dinner for them multiple times a week. He also makes them breakfast on the weekends.

Even when he is only trying to cook something for himself to enjoy, he tries to make extra so she can eat later in case she wants to.

His girlfriend has struggled with food and has a complex relationship with it, and she also had body image problems.

“But at the same time, I consider cooking to be a necessary life skill, and it’s gotten really frustrating that she refuses to contribute in that aspect of our cohabitation,” he explained.

“It’s not that she doesn’t eat, she just refuses to cook and has to be dragged to come to the grocery store with me. She would be perfectly happy eating out for every meal or just heating up frozen or pre-prepared meals for the rest of her life.”

But he doesn’t think that’s a viable option to just get takeout all the time. They live in a major city where the cost of living is astronomical, and eating out costs a ton of money.

He and his girlfriend can’t afford to constantly eat out. So unless they move somewhere cheaper, they can’t keep eating out nonstop.

The second problem he really has with his girlfriend never cooking is that it’s left to him to be the one doing this. And honestly, he would like to be spoiled, too, and have her be the one cooking for him. When he has a bad day at work, the last thing he really wants to do is have to cook the two of them dinner.

It’s upsetting to him that his girlfriend doesn’t think to try to learn to cook to take the burden off of him. Finally, he is worried that she won’t be able to feed their children when they have them if he’s not available to do the cooking.

He’s also concerned about entertaining guests and that it will always be on him to have to make the food to host people. He genuinely believes that learning how to cook and being willing to cook are important skills to helping build a healthier lifestyle while also saving some cash.

“I know she’s also not confident in the kitchen and probably feels overwhelmed by the idea of cooking. I’ve offered to try to teach her the basics, but she has no interest,” he said.

“Does anybody have any ideas on how I can get her more involved in the kitchen?”
