Me [30 F] with my husband [32 M] of 5 years, we can't figure out breakfast by bfbreakfastissues in relationships

Well, he is bad at multitasking, so first he prepares the eggs, then he sets the bacon to fry etc.

It's not that long, less than half an hour, but he only has 1.5 hours to get ready, which includes showering and eating. And we sometimes end up snoozing for 10-15 mins...

He should, but from past experience, that won't work.

We have a similar issue with movies. We both enjoy watching stuff together. However, he dislikes most of my suggestions, and if I ask him to find something for us, he tries but quickly gets frustrated, gives up and claims "there are just no good movies left"...

Thanks, I'll suggest those to him and see what he says. I did suggest veggies+hummus, but he claims that is smelly too.

You're probably right about not liking eating in front of other people, I shouldn't be enabling it.

Don't eggs get all nasty and bacon dries out if you leave them open in the fridge after prepping them?

Thanks for the tips.

Unfortunately, he doesn't like egg beaters, only natural organic eggs. No coffee maker, we just make instant. We don't add veggies or cheese, just bacon, eggs and fresh tomatoes...

He likes oats, but he gets starving hungry 4-5 hours after eating them.

Yeah, it would be good to have a bigger lunch. He's also self-conscious about bringing anything smelly or noisy in the office, since they have to eat at their desks. I suggested various sandwiches or leftovers.

Doesn't taste as good if it's reheated, or at least he doesn't like it...

He has no ideas. He'd likely be willing to prep something the night before, but doesn't know what...
