Just kidding.

401st downvote


Early in the relationship with my wife, we always went grocery shopping together. This was intentional on my part, as I wanted her to "feel at home" after moving out of her own place and into my house.

We don't go together anymore because we do the online ordering and pickup, but if she or I actually went full-on grocery shopping we'd still go together.

It helps to remember to pick up certain items or get things that you in particular want, that she wouldn't get herself. The same is true for things she personally wants.

Sorry I have a great relationship with my wife and it bothers you, incel.

"grocery shopping alone" is incel code for sleeping around.

Well my wife is from India, so if I let her do the grocery shopping alone, I would be shitting constantly for the next week.

Wife and I hit up Sams 2x a month. The kids usually don't want to go so they stay home. So we usually go out to lunch first and then to Sams.

With drive time that's about 3 hours of kid-free time that we can spend together as a couple.

Once a week we hit up the grocery, usually just one of us goes because it's usually pretty quick.

OP, I assume you don't have kids. If you did, you would recognize that kid free time is rare and you take it however you can get it.

Exception to the rule is on vacation and hitting up Publix or an occasional visit and you just happen to be with each other. If it is on the regular it is beta AF.


I fricking love grocery shopping. I have Rouses, Winn Dixie and Albertsons Weekly Coupon websites saved in my favorites.

I'm not a big coupon cutter but I will go chase down a deal and love finding Yellow Sticker Deals in Walmart.

That shite makes me happy.


You're a dummy.

Beta move. Hope you baws aren’t doing that.


I remember one time me and my college girlfriend were grocery shopping after we'd fricked and smoked a joint on a Saturday morning. We were walking around the aisles of some random Winn-Dixie laughing at God knows what and it was pretty much the Garden of Eden. Fight me.

Well that is us. We bring the kids too. It is a great way to keep kids off electronics on the weekend.

Don't know why you care.

But we call it division of labor in our house. I take care of the lawn, cars, other maintenance and she shops and does most of the cooking.

I wash the dishes and do the laundry if my wife has a night shift and they need doing. Is that beta?

I love Indian cuisine.
Indian people seem nice.
Is it erroneous to assume that all Indian people cook Indian food well?

I always assumed this was the case, for no reason whatsoever and recently realized it’s kinda flawed thought process.
I mean how many people do you know are horrible at cooking (American) food? Many.

I think good and bad Indian food both send you to the shitter so I have no idea what's good or not.

I love my wife. But she can’t cook. No sense in her waisting time at the grocery store.
