D choice is for your friend to decide. So far that there is Love who cares about food, if they are rich they can even hire a stay-in cook and on the other hand she can be thought how to cook
It is not advisable for them to hire a cook even if they are rich. The woman should know how to cook while she might have an assistant to help in the house chore

I know how to Cook so I can teach her
But she should make sure that she is an expert in za oda room I can't be teaching you how to Cook and also be teaching you how devour me in za oda room ,she should either be expert in Cooking or expert in za oda room two options let her choose from it

But seriously I can't marry because of love only who love help

I Love many girls but I trust none is all about marrying who you trust
As grow with time you would understand the power of love.

Typical naija mentality. We should out do these old school ideas of "by force she must always cook" if she learns it good for her and if not a cook is fine for d few rich ones

If you court a lady for certain period, you should be able to figure it out if she is pretending or not. A character can not be hidden for long

This issue of marrying a woman who doesn't know how to cook, I use to think it was a big deal till I met someone who told me her dad cooks their meals cause their mum doesn't know how to. Plus her dad enjoyed cooking.

Her parents are grandparents now and still together.

If you know you can't deal with it as a man, let her know. If she's willing to learn, teach her or enroll her in catering school.

Or be the chef in the marriage. different strokes, different folks.

This talk of a lady not knowing how to Cook baffles me...is it that most times their food is tasteless or they are really bad at it?

Those ones are the types that would know every nooks and crannies in the neighborhood while their moms sweat their asses off in the kitchen but when it comes to sex, they know everything about karma sutra.

I can vividly recollect, during my university days how beans(cowpea) and garri were so popular in the male hostel. Meanwhile, provision shops prefer to stock more than half of their shops with indomie (noodles) without any sceptism. These shop owners know very well that these noodles will be devoured completely by none other than those in the female hostels.
A friend of mine visited his girlfriend come fiancee several times in her house, and was always welcomed with garnished noodles and chilled soft drinks. It continued for their two years of courtship. Anytime he asks why she isn't cooking any other food, she says it's because she has been busy all through the day.
If he tells her to cook a special delicacy, she spends the whole day cooking and then serves him with a delicious and palatable rubbish (tasteless meal).
I told him that I can only marry a woman who can cook exceptionally well, and can also cook meals I can't cook (especially my traditional meals). I told him that I will be so proud to invite anyone to my house.
They ( My friend and his fiancee) are preparing to get married soon, though they haven't fixed a date yet.
I need your candid and unbiased advice. Thanks.

It takes less than 30 days to learn how to cook all dishes within a tribe

For a would be wife that don't know how to cook won't auger well for the family, a good wife should also be a good cook, and you know it's her food that will attract him to the house immediately after work, but when she can't cook the reverse is the case.

Ok. Most men will say they can't marry a woman that can't cook, which is fine. I have no problem with it at all! Everybody has what they can and can't do without so who am I to say otherwise? Dfferent strokes for different folks,but as for me, I can't marry a man that cannot cook or some house chores, I feel it's a sign of laziness. If we are dating and I discover it, he will learn how to do them, not just for me but for the entire family. What if I travel and I leave him with the children, what if I am sick? What if I am on duty? Does it mean he would starve? That's bad. All parents should teach their children how to do these things to avoid stories that touch. No woman would use food to punish my brother or my son. Marriage na partnership o! Help your spouse in their responsibilities, it would improve your marriage, I can't allow my husband to provide for the family alone it might be overwhelming sometimes, no be slavery! He should also do the same for me. That's love.

Your view makes sense. I believe it's important for a man to know how to cook.


Unfortunately, even in this day and age, talking with some women, I find that in spite of their education, they feel their sons shouldn't cook but should do other things around the house. Some of these ideas are carryovers from their cultures. So there will be some men who don't know how to cook because they didn't have the opportunity to learn to do it.

I think you might miss something if you insist on ticking that box. My beloved didn't know how to cook but he is no longer a stranger in the kitchen. When I'm tired, he helps out. He's not like my dad who shopped and cooked but he has tried.

You can help your man to understand why he needs to know how to cook and then teach him to cook especially in the early days of marriage when there's just the two of you.

How will I fall in love with a lady that cannot cook in the first place?

Some of you are here saying as long as she is good in other things it doesn't matter. Let me tell you, cooking shouldn't even be counted as what a woman should know how to do. It is expected that she should have learnt it on her own, not because of marriage but as a necessity in taking care of her home in future.

Is it me that will join the women in the kitchen when I take her home to see my parents and we are having a dinner or an occasion? Is it the man that will still cook whenever there are visitors coming to his house? Probably colleagues from work or church members?

Oh! She will have to rush to a restaurant to buy fried rice and chicken when the extended family comes to visit or I should always be cooking and leave my job since I know how to cook. A woman that doesn't know how to cook is not fit to start a family with any man, and I stand on that.

I don't know how we'll allow values to erode us simply because we want to copy something that we can't even practice correctly. Nobody is saying a man shouldn't support, but dammit if you cannot do simple house chores as cooking for the family why am I marrying you? Nobody is asking you to be a chef, just learn how to prepare simple delicacies. Why is that difficult?

Will a lady Fall in love and get married to a jobless man? Abeg stop with senseless questions this sunny afternoon. angry

As far as I am concerned, that on it's own is a red flag which cannot be overlooked.

Good love is not that easy to find; somebody can always learn to cook, and if love is there, will do it for your sake.

Must it be only wife that should know how to cook, both of us cook at home, wash plate, sweep etc. Woman should not also marry a lazy man in the kitchen probably a man that can not cook. spit.

You want to tell me that if you meet someone now, fall for her, and you propose to her, then you find out she can't cook you'd break up with her?
Easier said than done man, easier said than done. Unless you're not marrying for love.

There is more to marriage that just loving!

Don't push your opinion on others, why being so excessive?
