hey Enet! Isn't it wonderful that ladies love your cooking? I guess, you take it wrongly - these ladies does not take advantage of you - instead its their way of giving you compliments - "great cooking.!" You already won their hearts by your cooking - now what you can do is take it to another level. Rather than doing all the cooking yourself - next time around, let the ladies do it - and you supervise them, i mean, teach them your cooking styles. Viola! this ladies will really appreciate you for that. I also loved cooking - and lots of friendships been established due to my being a "cook." don't you know that famous chef in grand hotels all over the world are guys? Be proud of that! it's not a curse its a blessings!

A little lie is necessary~~~ Eg. i have other urgent things to deal with, and no time to prepare for cooking etc. By the way, i am a guy and enjoy cooking too. And also face the same problem with you. But most of times, i reject their request.

add poison to your food, nah kidding... maybe you could use medicine to make a stomach ache and make them often go to the toilet. Then they will be hate your food, and not getting advantages to you... By the way, isn't it good to make a food that ladies like to eat. That's a good think i guess.

I don't really understand about 'taking advantage' part. What do you mean? They love to ask you to cook. I don't know about you but I think it's wonderful if my guy know how to cook. That way he can help me if I am sick or too busy with work. Besides, he can prepare me special dish once in a while. I think it's romantic! If you don't like the girls to take advantage, don't make a perfect meals once in a while. Too salty, too sweet or whatever can make them change their mind.

They just enjoy calling me even when i am busy that they want to come round for dinner again and again and again. I even suggest that i come round theirs once in a while or go for a takeout, but some say no that its not the same..Yeh but it would be kool if you take time and teach your husband how to cook, you never know, he might be as good as you.

it's wonderful that you enjoy cooking. :) you could actually take advantage of your talents and teach girls to cook at some point. cooking together is fun. since you enjoy it a lot, why not enjoy it with company... :)

Have them do the dishes. They are only showing their appreciation for your meals. It's good that you cook, continue doing so try new recipes and let them be the tasters improving your culinary skills. Good luck :)
