My wife is fucking useless in the kitchen. I would absolutely love it if she even attempted to help in the kitchen. Typically she sits on her ass and doomscrolls while I do all the work. She's not a great cook, and for that reason, I do most of the cooking. There are still small things that you can do to help out like cutting veggies, finding spices, setting the table, etc. If she did those things, she might learn a thing or 2 about how to cook and improve her culinary skills. Also, whenever she cooks, she acts like the person in this meme wanting no help, and it comes out tasting like shit (too much oil, not enough seasoning and burnt to hell is her usual). If I try to help, she gets frustrated and quits leaving me to make the meal (which may be what she's trying to do anyway). So think about the other side of this coin OP.
This is my Ex Wife . She could burn water. My new wife is a delight in the kitchen so much so that I make weekend breakfasts with zero help and don't even feel slighted. It's a treat.
Have you considered therapy?
