This is getting ridicolous. I need help.

So today when I asked my wife to make dinner for me, she said no, and that she has better things to do. Never in my life have I been so insulted. What should I do? Discipline her?

get off your *** and make it yourself...lazy....


letterstoheather
cook for yourself.

i think that having expectations of someone else to feed you every day is a little crazy.



cupidgirl
Discipline? Like what? Send her to her room?
Why dont you make her dinner?
Newsflash: you are not a King. & she is not your servant.

Do you think that she is a child? Discipline her? No wonder she said no! If my husband treated me like that, he wouldn't be my husband any more. But before I kicked him to the curb, I would take the beer bottle out of your lazy hands and hit you over the head with it. Make your own dinner and get off of your high horse! Insulted? I think with this question and statement, you have insulted the every man on this planet!

Not sure what your expectations of each other are, but I agree with BeachGurl....you should make your own dinner. I wouldn't argue or be mean about it, but instead, take it in stride, make your own dinner and make hers too. Maybe she's feeling under appreciated and she thinks you EXPECT her to do it and don't appreciate it. I don't know, but no matter what, if you just do it yourself and be nice to her too, you can't lose. If anything, you'll win a ton of points.

As for disciplining her.....I hope you're kidding. If you are serious, I wouldn't make dinner for you either. Holy Cow. You need to get a clue in the relationship department. If my husband treated me like that, we would no longer be married.

one. DISCIPLINE?! what are you gunna do hit her? and maybe she did have something better to do. she shouldnt always have to cook you dinner. you have two legs and two arms and im pretty sure your a big boy and you are perfectly capable of getting up and doing it yourself. respect your wife. if you want her to make dinner one night make plans before hand so she doesnt start a task. dont assume she can come to your beck and call when ever you need her. she has a life too

Cooking dinner everyday for somebody is quite boring right?
That's what your wife feels like[ i Think ].
I guess you could make it yourself.

Read the book 5 Love Languages. It's more than than likely that you are not meeting some of your wife's basic needs and she feels that she should "return the favor" and not meet some of yours. This book is an incredible eye opener in many relationships and can really help save rocky ones before people take drastic measures!

Learn to cook and/or improvise. Appreciate her more for her work and chores (if she actually does it) Adult don't require discipline unless they're in boot camp. See what's up with her, what you're doing wrong, and solve it. Argument is the last resort cause people have the mentality of "I'm RIGHT and you're WRONG". Avoid that one.

Haha i do not think Disciplining your wife will get your dinner cooked at all. You should tell her how insulted you were when she responded to you in that manor, but also you need to recognize and accept that she may be tired of having to cook dinner for you and wishes that you would take more responsibility in that area.

Ummm no!
She may be feeling stressed out about something. Talk with her do NOT discipline her shes not a dog!!! I understand your insulted but your only going to make things worse. Maybe she feels stressed out and maybe she feels that you could get on your 2 feet and make your own supper?


pacpac1029
lol ok
sorryy...
dont dicipline her!!!
would u let ur wife dicipline u?!?
k im too young to know but
give her space for a little bit
and then talk to her
maybe she had a bad day?


Steff.x
Discipline her?
Shes your wife not your kid.
Make your own dinner dammit.


Penelope
no - you do not discipline your wife. she is not obligated to make dinner for you. however, that answer does sound a little harsh. you could ask her if something is bothering her. maybe she is upset at you for something. please do not take it as an insult. i do not think that was her intention at all, but she may have a lot of things going on and cooking dinner was just not something she had time for. i have to wonder if you ever cook dinner for her. you should know there are no such things as female roles and male roles. everything is 50/50.

This is a joke, right? In marriage you are equal partners, not mommy/child daddy/ child relationships. Therefore, you have no right whatsoever to discipline her. PS--if you are hungry, go cook for yourself. There is no law that says your wife must cook for you. If she does willingly then you can take it for a sign of love or affection. Love is given, not forced. Think about it.


misskitty
Now you are being ridiculous! Take her out for dinner, she is tired of cooking for you. When is the last time you cooked for her?

I think 'discipline her' is a tip-off that your marriage is on the skids.

Make your own dinner and if she doesnt have a job,tell her to get one. If she has a job and you do too, you two need to come up with a schedule for dinner and cleaning. Its called COMPROMISE. NO, YOU MAY NOT DISCIPLINE HER. She is not your child.


MissE
Cook yourself and get a life.

was that a dirty joke when you said "discipline her"? if so then yeah i guess if that's what you guys are into. Maybe she didn't wanna make dinner for you. Ask her about it and throw some sweet words in there. Does she usually make dinner??

Make your own dinner, make it smell really nice, then when she ask you for some you tell her shhhhhhh! I'm eating right now.lol....Don't share your dinner with her tomorrow!

Grab her by the hand and say "I am taking you out to dinner, so we can just relax and talk... And I wont take NO for an answer..."

While you have her attention, let her know you appreciate her... Mention how nice it is to come home to a cooked meal ....

I think sometimes some people lose the ability to actually talk about things.... Stresses in life, work etc and people become drained... So next time try just taking her out to dinner.... No arguing, no harsh words AS THEY HURT NO MATTER WHO THEY COME FROM... :o) And even more when it is from your S.O.

Love her, hug her if that doesn't change her then take your next step.... My guess is she was just pms~ing or had a bad day of some sort...


lorra.
you aren't you wife's father. and its not a rule that she has to make dinner for you. but i do admit it was rude of her to say she has better things to do. just tell her you were insulted.
