[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, what a thread.

To OP:

It's obvious what the problem is. You are not interested in food and you just aren't interested in cooking. You find it tiresome and a real chore so it's hard to face it every day.

I am not judging you on this, many people are like this too.

Why not have a frank discussion with your husband about how much you hate cooking and why not try to reach a compromise such as having more prepared foods from supermarkets/delis or deliveries and balance that with making one or two simple meals a week with plenty of leftovers that he can chow on the following day? Get yourself a crockpot. It's easy and makes a tasty meal that'll last a few days.

This.  And you never know what will impact how you have to handle cooking etc.  One of my best friends is like you -- hates cooking, just generally uninterested in food.  She and her DH were a take-out, grab-whatever couple pre-kids.  Now they have three kids with serious food allergies. Now eating out is extremely challenging and she has to cook practically everything (even most convenience foods are out or very expensive so she tries to limit them).  So, she cooks every meal, every day (she's a SAHM) and she doesn't particularly like it but it's part of the job so she gets it done with a positive attitude.[/quote]
