Welp, second post today. I’m embarrassed to have so much content to post here. This one is about the weekend, when I cooked some Chinese rice for myself, which my SO tried and loved. I had told him “Really? You should try lemon chicken. I’m really good at making it.” He responded by telling me he had never tried it.
Then Sunday came along and when I woke up she had cooked fucking Chinese rice and lemon chicken so that her lovely son could try it.
She always does it. Whenever I cook something he likes, she’ll buy or cook a lot of it the next day until he stops liking it. She gets ahead of me whenever I mention a recipe. She also cooks for herself, her boyfriend and him and not me. And she always criticizes how I cook. I hate it.
For me, cooking is heavily personal. I never really cooked aside from simple dishes because it’s something ritualistic that I only do for the ones I love, and this b is ruining it for me. I cook for my SO with all my love and she’ll fuck it up every single time.
She also does it when my SO cooks and bakes for me. I remember on Friday last week, he was making me a pudding, which I love, and she shoved a pizza underneath it in the oven so it absorbed all the heat and ruined the dessert.

You live with your MIL and she cooks for you guys?
…. I think you’re being petty.
Maybe give her a different version of a recipe (the too much salt/absolutely no seasoning/different measurements and cooking times) so that if she makes it, SO hates her version but loves yours?
I hate that she is trying to ruin these things for you! She sounds obnoxious!
