I (28m) love cooking. I’ve done it since I was young. My girlfriend knows how to cook but doesn’t enjoy doing it so I’ve been doing most of the cooking recently. I usually don’t have a problem with this, but she’s making it not fun.

She always seems to find something wrong with my food. She still eats it but it’s a little disheartening to hear that. And it’s not like I don’t take her advice. I have asked her several times what she wants me to change but it never works. Last night I made a dish that she’s liked before, but she said didn’t taste good.

I was fed up and told her that she can start cooking her own food if she doesn’t like my cooking. She didn’t take it and well and started crying and left the kitchen. Now she’s ignoring me.

I wasn’t trying to make her upset, but I can’t keep doing this where she criticizes me but then wants me to keep doing it. Her reaction though is making me question if I handled it correctly.
