Would you be offended if your husband went to his moms for dinner?

Ask her for her recipes, don’t ask her to teach you how to cook. There’s a big difference. Just one day while he’s at work, tell him you don’t feel like cooking and ask if you can go to in laws, too then while eating dinner be like “wow this is so good can i get the recipe?”

That’s going to be my son too!! He’s a momma’s boy and loves my cooking!! Please don’t feel threatened by his love for his mom and her cooking. Ask his mom if she wouldn’t mind teaching you some recipes… :slight_smile:

Cook what you want to cook. You probably know his likes and dislikes by now. If he doesn’t want it, that’s less for you to cook and less dishes. Let his mama feed him. Sounds crude but just being honest. You can either cater to him and only cook what he wants or you can cook things you want. I’d meet in the middle and let him enjoy his moms cooking if she wanted to cook but would also like to be invited to family dinner. It really doesn’t seem too big an issue unless mom is being spiteful and he is letting her

Sounds like you can’t cook and maybe you need to have an honest conversation with him about what he would like you to make or what’s wrong with what you’re currently cooking.

I’m not trying to say that if he’s truly being picky and childish you should just cater to him and his every whim, but I feel like either there’s something he’s avoiding at home or your food is really that bad. Sorry. Someone had to say it.

Also there’s nothing wrong with a grown man having a close relationship with his mom but in our home, dinner is the one meal we get to eat together and often it’s the only time we even have to talk at all or even sit at the same table. It hurts both of us to have to skip that time if my husband is working late and it makes more sense to get the kids asleep and leave his plate for him. Half the time I fall asleep before he gets home when that happens so we’ve spent 20 waking minutes in each other’s company by the time it’s all said and done. I wouldn’t never choose a day like that to see my mom if I could just see her any other time.

Sounds like a picky eater to me. I would find out from him what he does like to eat. If he won’t say specifically, ask his mother what she fixes for dinner that he likes. She may not know that he’s turning his nose up at what you fix several nights a week, or if she does, she’s too flattered to say anything. If it continues, I think I would find recipes for foods that you like and fix those every night and just let him eat at his mom’s. You can’t change the way a river flows.

Holy shit I’d love it if my husband went to his mums for dinner :joy: I hate cooking & end up cooking twice in the evening because I feed the children before he gets home from work. On a serious note I think it would bug me that he would rather rush there than home after a working day x

I wouldn’t give a fuck

I don’t think it’s awful he’s spending time with his mum eating her cooking, however it shouldn’t be a direct line from your cooking. If he’s not happy with what’s being made he should either give suggestions or at least invite you over to eat aswell so you get an evening off! Either that or he can start cooking for himself. Xx

You are MOST DEFINITELY overreacting!!! Be thankful. As a mother I would love for mine to do that if I cooked every night. Find out what she’s cooking and learn why it’s better.

Positives

  • he has a good relationship with his mum/ so sounds like a good relationship with women in general including you.
  • he is good to his mum by visiting her so much
  • he likes her cooking
    (It saves you cooking 3 nights a week/ take the most of it and have a hot bath- read a book watch a movie you only like during those times
  • cook less /
    Less washing up

Negative
He’s not eating with you. But honestly I see it all as positive

Not bad in my eyes but if you are taking a negative feeling from it. Ask yourself how you can make it a positive?

I don’t see the issue with him having a good standing relationship with his mom, and eating dinner over there from time to time. She won’t be around forever. I think he should eat dinner with you as well though. Can you have dinner with him at his mom’s house and can you alternate days? Maybe ask him what he wants or if he has any ideas. Tell him how it makes you feel.

He started to notice I wasn’t feeding him anymore and I didn’t care. Eventually he became more grateful :yawning_face:

Ask him what he would like to have for dinner and see how that goes. If he still goes there he’s just missing his Mom or don’t like your cooking.

Obviously a mummy’s boy, he wants to eat there fine but once a week etc your his wife he should be eating with his family during the week after work and spending time with his family highly disrespectful to be honest, he can see his mum at weekends or Fridays after work he can make a day just for her for mother and son time so she can make his dinner etc rest of week he should be home, if he dont like what your cooking he should be telling you what to buy or what he would like for dinners during the week, its called communication me and othet half always dicuss together what to have for dinners etc

I wouldn’t be mad about I would tell him to pick me up to go there too :joy:

Yes, that’s rude.
Stop considering him when you make dinner and just cook for yourself. He can make his own dinner.

You are in competition with your mother in law for your husband’s time and affections. This is the very same question that was posed in another forum. You fix your husband’s favorite meals but it is never going to be good enough as your mother in law will find a way to get your husband to go to her home for dinner. Ignore the rather nasty posts here about your cooking skills.

Was this an issue before you were married?

Your husband’s behavior is unlikely to change. This current situation is a no win for you. Hire a chef to come to your home and to prepare a meal for you and your husband. Let your husband know. If he still goes to his mother’s that evening, you will know beyond any possible doubt that it not the food you serve in your home but a competition with your mother in law. If he has dinner at your home when you have the meal specially prepared for him OR if he goes to his mother’s that night, give your husband an ultimatum to go for counseling immediately or tell him to return to his mother. If he refuses to go to counselling, strongly consider getting the locks changed the next time he goes to his mother’s for dinner. If you are strong enough to change the locks, text him and let him know the locks have been changed and, that since he is more devoted to his mother than you, he is no longer welcome in your home and a change of clothing is waiting for him outside your home so that he may return full time to his mother.

If your husband won’t go with you to counseling, do not have children with him. Do get out of that marriage.
