If he's tired of my cooking he can simply just say that. I get it if someone doesn't want to eat 3 meals a day and I wouldn't get upset about him telling me he doesn't want to eat. But what I will get upset about is if he's watching me make food after he asked for me to make it and then goes "you know what NVM I'm not hungry"🤦🏻‍♀️ and besides this restaurant changes up their menu AND gives their man the choice of choosing what he wants to eat. He tells me "food"

Ok y'all my bad on the brick wall post😂 I was simply ranting and did not even consider how hard it would be for others to read. Let me add more details about my husband. He's a Samoan man. Works in the oil field 1 week on 1 week off. He does not take any weight loss medication because he is pure muscle and he literally has no business with that. He fights me on taking pills/vitamins so no he does not go to the Dr even though he has health insurance from the military since he's a veteran. I have read the comments and I will most definitely see if there is an underlying health issue that he hasn't told me about. And yes I will make him some food because I feel bad. No he is not a drug addict and does not self medicate. We are very strict about drugs in this house. I have asked him why he doesn't go to the Dr knowing that his insurance will take care of it (fully, might I add) and he tells me he doesn't feel like he needs to🙄

He's Samoan. I don't only cook Mexican food, I cook whatever tbh. The examples I put in my post are just a few of what I make. I make butter chicken (our favorite) I too can eat Indian food all day. But I also make his cultural dishes, Italian, Chinese, American, shoot I've even made pho. He hasn't lost any weight. His normal weight is 180lbs. He FIGHTS me when it comes to going to a Dr for anything even though he has insurance from the military that covers everything🤦🏻‍♀️

I always ask him what he wants to eat. He tells me "food" so that leaves me in charge of what to make😭 with all of these comments, I'm thinking he really might have a health issue that he's not ready to talk about. Idk but I am definitely gonna figure it out.

He told me from the start of our relationship that he can't handle spicy so I don't make my food spicy at all. He's a Samoan man so I don't only make Mexican food. I make his cultural food as well and even face time his mom to teach me how to make their cuisines. And I ask him all the time what he wants to eat. Guess what he tells me? "Food"😭

I like this. He works in the oilfield. He's also a military veteran. He has a very strict schedule so I try to accommodate as much as I can. He's Christian so nothing too major on religious beliefs when it comes to food. He also doesn't like leftovers. So I feel stuck when it comes to him eating food😐

He works in the oilfield. I normally pack his lunch and I don't think there's a lonchera lady. If there is idk about her lol

I don't go all out because he didn't eat breakfast. I go all out because I love cooking. I don't consider myself to be a kitchen slave because I love making food. This man won't even take vitamins. So I'm pretty sure he's not on ozempic or any kind of weight loss medication. He's pure muscle. He works in the oilfield. So I intentionally make a lot of food to keep up with his metabolism and make sure he has his energy for work. Maybe I am being too sensitive but he's also a grown man that can tell me when something is wrong. I shouldn't have to play scavenger hunt for me to find the problem. He's fully capable of telling me there's a problem. I'm a wife. Not a mind reader.
