I'm the cook in my house, we eat what i make. I try to make things that we both enjoy eating. We've been living together for 30 years, so I know what we like to eat. Eating together is an important part of a relationship, I try to wait for my partner to eat dinner whenever possible. I think I got that from growing with my family, we had 5 kids, 2 parents and dinner was at 5pm every day. WE HAD TO BE THERE..
 
well I am only speaking about the past, and we didn't really live together but often spent many days together in the same place.

Anyway .. yeah we had quite a different taste, but we always managed to arrange something. Sometimes there were side dishes that one or the other didn't like, so we made some extra salad or something else to compensate.
 
As long as you are having dinner together, enjoy each others company regardless of what he chooses to eat.
 
Blueboy hit it. Usually I cook so I know what he likes and what he doesn't. However I hate seafood and when he gets a hankering for it he'll cook it, or buy some and I'll have something different. As long as we're eating together it doesn't really matter.

And after 13 years, no we don't ALWAYS eat together but I'd say we do....98% of the time.
 
We both do the cooking & we eat what was prepared.
 
Twenty-seven years here and we usually do not eat together unless it is at a restaurant. Sitting still is tortuous for my spouse and I've learned to live with that.

Since both of you are willing to prepare meals why don't you have a cook off, attempting to make something you enjoy while preparing something the partner might like.

Better yet, get your meat at lunch and prepare vegetarian for dinner.

Bon Appetit.
 
We eat together every evening and we eat the same thing. Also, we have 4 kids, so can you imagine if everyone wanted their own thing? Neither Tomas nor I really cook, but we do like good food. Dinnertime is one of our favorite family times. It's not unusual for our sons to have friends here, too.
 
Eating at home we always had the same thing, unless we had a Chinese takeaway. Those times we had something different.
 
I don't live with my bf, but we spend a lot of time together. When I'm there we usually go with what we both like, but it tends a little more towards my tastes because he can eat what he wants when I'm not there.

With my ex we almost always ate what my ex's roommate cooked, which was vegetarian food.
 
I think it is probably common for two people to have different tastes.

I like to cook and my bf is not vegetable friendly, unlike myself. When I cook I like lots of veg, but I know it will be me eating it. When he cooks I know I won't get any veg so I make a little bit for myself. We seem to have it worked out now and it works for us...... However summer is around the corner and I'll be wanting lots of salad but him ...... don't know how that is going to pan out. lol

Nothing wrong with you sharing the main meal and him making a bit on the side to satisfy himself, or you could prepare that bit for him too. Learn how he likes to make his stuff then do it for him. You don't have to eat it mate. Get your Master Chef on and cook up a storm I say. Bon appetit. ..|
 
When I'm home, my partner and I always share the same food...

I kind of lucked out with him -- because we both grew up vegetarians and have the same tastes in food...

I am curious though about how your partner handles preparing and eating meals that comes from the same kitchen that prepares meat???

I'm not trying to come across as mean or critical -- Just curious, as that would pretty much gross me out... :lol:

:):):)
 
What others here have said - eating together doesn't have to involve the same foods. We eat different evening meals 2-4 times per week. I do almost all the cooking. We have different needs and I don't mind the double cooking. We always have enough for 2 or more meals, so I'm not really cooking twice as much.
 
My great aunt and uncle were married for over 35 years and everytime they ate at home she made two seperate dinners because he hated everything she loved :P She liked lamb and he only liked chicken, he liked mac n cheese, she liked baked potato. It is no issue, just plan ahead, and all should be well, Mr. Cleaver ;) I am the same way. Me and my guy or long distance, but he is not very open to the foods he likes, luckily I like just about everything and I am a bit of a kitchen wiz and can cook very well :P haha [sorry for tooting my own horn :P ] My problem is, he is a soup lover. I hate soup, haha! Though, I love making soup :) So it's all good ;)
