I'm a woman and I'm all about doing things for the people I love, but I don't really cook. I'll happily unclog a shower drain, put together furniture, change your spark plugs, but I hate cooking. Nothing makes me feel attracted to someone quite like when they cook for me; it makes me feel so loved. I joke that the worst part of being single is having to make my own dinner and do my own grocery shopping. I eat so simply now because I refuse to actually cook for just myself.

It's a good 80/20 split from what I've seen. My brother is the chef (and boy can he cook, lol), also the anxious one, the one who plans, in his relationship and his girl is the no-nonsense, "gets her hands dirty" person. As long as we find someone who complements us we're solid. My wife's pretty easygoing and I'm a maniac underneath, for example. 🤣
