Sometimes I don’t want to cook at home, want to order food online but my husband has many arguments against it like only home cooked food is good for health and etc. But sometimes I desperately want to eat food from my favorite How can I convince him?
Does he himself not want to eat outside food? Or he doesn’t want you also to not have it?
If it is about your cravings, why don’t you cook food for him, and then order for yourself from outside? Is he against that too?
Or if he wants home cooked food only, there are many apps that find the homecooks near you. Heck, I am sure there must be many home-cooks in your own society. Try them.
This situation can be easily handled with a little patience and delicate handling.
Well, he is right though, isn’t he? Restaurant food is usually really oily, and full of preservatives.
But, of course, if you don’t feel like cooking at times, there have to be exceptions.
Why don’t you try searching for a few healthy options nearby your home. Most online food platforms like swiggy/ zomato have an option to select “healthy food”. This could include salads, or whole wheat unprocessed sandwiches, or soups. The options are many.
Just order some healthy food one day (though make sure to read the reviews and order from a good hygienic place) and have it yourself. I am sure that if he sees that the food is fresh and healthy, he will not be as reluctant to order online.
I think your husband is very health conscious which is good but it seems like he is overdoing it. You can tell him that you do not want to cook food for one day. Give him some excuse, like a back pain. If he does not give you the permission then you can make tantrums. Do not cook food the whole day. Lay on the bad all day and cry when you are hungry. After some time he will definitely agree on having outside food. I used to do this when I was a kid. My dad was a fitness freak as well. I hope this gives you the scope to treat yourself with some fast food.
