Hello all,
My bf of 3 years but close friend of 10 have been very open about how we are going to handle med school. While we know some times and things will be trial and error I feel I have prepped him as best I can. He is non medical by the way I do need some advice though. I love cooking. Nothing super fancy, but it's all homemade. I don't eat processed foods hardly at all besides stuff like crackers and occasionally a pastry. I also have recently transitioned to vegetarian. And that's my new lifestyle. My issue is the bf does not cook. He's a microwave ramen only type of guy. Everytime I bring up me going to school (no kids yet) and how busy I will be and how important is is that I have healthy food available. All he says is "if I have money then I will buy food" but financially since I won't be working at all, that won't be feasible to do all the time. Like I can barely even get him to step foot in the kitchen for more than 20 minutes. It sucks because regardless if im the woman, if he could prepare simple healthy meals for me at least part of the time, it would be a big help. I wouldn't have to fret about cooking or the store being closed because he would have made something already. I mean so many students in med school have poor health because they don't have someone to help prepare healthy meals for them. And most don't have time to do it themselves. We don't have it like that, that we can hire a chef or spend $10-12 per meal per day everyday to eat what's on par with how I cook now. And most healthy eat out places are expensive. It just makes me so mad because I do it for him and it's like damn when I need you to step it up a little and do this so it can benefit the both of us, he just blows me off.
Do you all have any advice?
