'AITA for telling my wife to wear a hairnet when she cooks?' She refuses.
When this husband is frustrated, he asks Reddit:
'AITA for telling my wife to wear a hairnet when she cooks?'
I love my wife, but she does not understand how gross it is to find her hair in my food. I have asked to please stop cooking for me. I am more than happy to cook for us. Or to order out. Delivery. Restaurant. I don't really care. I just hate finding her hair in my food.
She refuses. She says she likes to cook. And she promised to tie her hair back. And she does. For a week. Then she 'forgets'. nI find her hair in cookies, soups, salad, pasta, pizza. It must be intentional at this point.
This was our first time hosting Thanksgiving. I begged her to please allow me to make the food and she could spend the day watching football and help with the dishes afterwards. She called me silly.
Her dad is not as polite as I am. He asked 'WHY THE FUCK IS THERE HAIR IN THE STUFFING'? Her mom found a hair in the mashed potatoes. I just kept my mouth shut. Now she is upset with me for not helping out and letting her be embarrassed.
I bought her a box of hair nets a couple of years ago. I brought them out and reminded her, gently, that I had told her about her hair in the food. She is calling me a dick for letting her screw up our first time, maybe last time, as Thanksgiving hosts. AITA?
Let's find out.

NTA you offered to cook and she refused, she knows her hair gets into food so that’s on her. I have long hair and put it up so it seems weird to me she has that much hair in food when cooking.

I never put my hair back when I cook and I maybe find a hair once a month in something. For her to have this much hair in stuff? She's doing it on purpose. Either that or she's balding and just not coming to terms with it.

Dude. Gross. My hair is literally past my as* and I NEVER find it in my food. Why? Because I tie the shit up. It takes what…30 seconds? Your wife is gross and unhygienic. Hopefully being embarrassed by her parents is the wake up call she needed to get it together. You are NTA.
