FOOD & RELATIONSHIP
Goodmorning guys,how was your night?....so last night i said i was going to talk about food and relationship, and i know many people will be wondering how food relates to relationship,but i will tell you,...so me and my friends have been discussing the correlation between a good cook and a good relationship, and the argument is weather a wife/fiance who is a good cook is likely to be loved better than the one who isn't?....so let's make it more like a discussion, do you think there are benefits to being a good cook as a wife/fiance?...well my answer will be yes and i will give you my reasons.
I am quite aware of the controversial nature of this topic but no matter how far we would like to drag the subject, it would never erase the fact that women run the kitchen in the African setting. This may change as western civilization absorbs the African culture but at the moment it is a fact that can never be neglected. Other factor that may also influence this culture would be the economic empowerment of women, but in the season and time we live in, women run the kitchen. One can never truly comprehend the reason behind the angst and chaos that builds up in a home that is run by a kitchen newbie,sometimes it get to a point that the relationship between a couple becomes very fragile.
For the African woman, either you are a good cook or you are wealthy enough to employ a cook, but just know that men are willing to pay for food stuffs but most men would never pay a cook,either the woman cooks the food or she pays the cook. However, there are exceptions, i have even seen families where men also love to cook,but that doesn't happen often in our part of the world. So its left for the women to either know how to cook or send their men away,so many men don't like eating outside their home,so by the time the wife/fiance doesn't know how to cook,the man would either get himself another mistress outside that knows how to cook or eat outside, and that alone can destroy the relationship.Like i said earlier,this is more like a discussion,so lets contribute to this,for the guys,can you marry a woman who doesn't know how to cook and for the women,how do you intend to keep your man if you don't know how to cook,well for me,i can marry a woman who can't cook,because i can cook myself,but that doesn't mean i will be cooking while she's seating down..lol....i believe she will surely learn,i don't think that can be a reason for me not to marry her.....my opinion though!!!
nice post.. for me,i think a man should know whether his woman can cook or not before getting married, if she can't cook and he can't bear bad cooking then he shouldn't go ahead with marrying her even if he loves her cs it can lead to a whole lot of trouble in the relationship or marriage.
