My wife cannot cook

Dear globalcounselor,

I have a big problem. I have been married for about six months now and my wife has not cooked a single meal that I can say I enjoy. She is absolutely ignorant when it comes to mixing ingredients and coming from a home of superb cooks – my mother and sisters, I find I get a little irritable just thinking about mealtimes at home. I love my wife but shamefully I must admit that I am beginning to love her less because of her cooking. Don’t suggest that I eat out or send her to cooking school, I have tried that. I am tired of eating out I am bored of that. I love home cooking that’s why I got married in the first place. If things do not change quickly, I can’t see my marriage continuing, in as much as I love my wife. Eating is my most pleasurable activity. I love to eat good delicious food, home cooked. Nothing makes me happier. What can I do to save my marriage.

Dear hungry,

Well this is a big problem but there is an easy solution if you want to save your marriage. Hire a cook and let him or her do the cooking, perhaps your wife will learn over time to cook herself. If you married your wife because you needed a maid, I can see how disappointed you’d be but if you married her for love, you will be patient and make cooking a family time where you too can help make the meals you love to eat. Good luck
