DH complained about my cooking. Any one else need a vent? Come join!

[Nicecuppatea2025]

DH comes home tonight. There’s a meal ready for him. It’s home made bolognese and perfectly nutritious and tasty for a quick midweek meal.

He’s onto his second bowl then suddenly announces - whilst waggling his fork - “you know, one day, I’ll teach you how to cook bolognese properly”.

No need for the lesson; I will never ever cook that man bologbloodynese again.

Anyone else need to vent?

Is he still alive?

Never mind bolognese, I wouldn't cook for him again full stop and would tell him why.

Is he wearing the bowl of bolognese?

I'd offer to make my mother's special bollock-naise recipe. What an utter twat.

Never cook for him ever again.

Mine critiques my stacking of the dishwasher but if I leave it for him to stack he doesn't do it for 3 days, the house stinks and there are no plates, bowls of cutlery.

Just about. New patio does sound tempting though!

Just tell him yes he can make it from now on if his is so perfect!

I gasped. What's his cooking actually like that he felt he could say that out loud? It's so ridiculously arrogant I'd be quoting that phrase back to him every chance I got!

Keeeeel him

It’s the only way!

The fork wagging 🤬

My jaw actually dropped. What a knob
I would 100% never, ever cook bolognaise for him ever. Ever. Again.

Never cook for him again. Im not joking...

I wouldn’t do ANY cooking for him from now on Get him ready meals and show him the microwave… including the bolognaise.

Instead of cooking for him put your feet up and relax.

Wtf? And he was on his second bowl??!!

Tell him you'll try harder. That you have a new recipe to try and you're sure he'll find it much better. (Recipe's secret ingredient- tin of cat or dog food with a sprinkling of dulcolax. Make garlic bread as well but remember to wipe each slice of bread around the toilet bowl before buttering it.)

I'm just lost for words.

And yes, put a shout out for recommendations for trades people who can lay a patio...!!

Fucking hell ,I would even resort to the decking in our garden ! Oh well beans on toast from now onwards!

He’d be wearing it in this house

Right chef prick you're on cooking detail from now on.

Where do these men get the audacity?
I hope you told him you won't be cooking for him any longer and that being an arrogant bellend is a big turn off.

When was the last time he cooked bolognese for you?

Saying that is pretty rude.

But whilst on his second bowl?!

And delivering his pronouncement whilst waggling his fork?!?!

Sorry OP but that’s cracked me up 🤣🤣🤣

Great stuff, he’s just got himself a new job, OP what will you do with your extra hour or so a day? Make sure it’s out of the house so he can’t rope you back into cooking. Make sure he tidies up too and puts the pots away etc. idiot man

Aw you reminded me of my grandad who always called it that - he would now be 100 and only encountered pasta in his late 50's and embraced it after a lifetime of meat an two veg. OP, I can't believe him.

My DH came home to the same meal tonight! He didn't complain. He wouldn't dare.

I'm equally amused and appalled at the thought of your DH waving his fork at you! What a pompous ass!

He's brave or stupid

Is he Italian by any chance ?

That would be the only slightly possible forgivable reason

At least you never have to cook for him ever again. DH once commented on the standard of my ironing silly man, seeing as he was so good at it I allowed him to take over the kids’ ironing too.
