as the topic says... I like cooking... cook in the morning for breakfast... cook at night for dinner... I always cook when I'm angry or happy... It's like a therapy for me too... But sometimes I felt like some lonely guy with nothing else to do besides cooking... I have a girlfriend but she doesn't like to cook... Everytime I asked her to join me... She refused... What do I have to do to make her enjoy cooking...??? or maybe cook something for her...???

Find out what some of her favorite foods growing up were that she either can't get from a restraunt or has some special family recipe for, and see if she wants to make something like that with you. Maybe that would get her more excited about cooking? That or let her suggest what she'd like to cook, instead of trying to get her to make what you already picked. Let her tell you what interests her. If there's nothing, maybe she just really truly doesnt' like to cook though, but since you enjoy it you can still have fun cooking for her.

Finding her favorite foods from when she was young may be good she may like something like that but if she is still not interested don't worry about it, take enjoyment in cooking for her and let her enjoy it too.

You can try to make it fun for her, but I think you either like to cook or you dont. Try to find out something that she might be interested in cooking and have her help you go through the steps of where to look for recipes, get ingredients and so forth. It might end up being something she decides she likes to do afterall.

usually when I want to make her cook I have to argue for few minutes before she joined me... But I can't cook with that kind of feeling... cooking is about love and fun... She really doesn't like to cook... She always buy food from restaurants or fast food... .

I love cooking, baking, sautéing, I love it all! Some people don't have any interest in cooking, and nothing anyone will do will pursued them to indulge you! But there are those you may be able to entice by getting them into it and applaud them in their efforts. My son for example, 19 and not really into cooking but he likes to help on occasion when he thinks others will be trying it, he has learned quite a lot and now can even cook for himself! LoL Well that gives me a break but I don't mind I enjoy cooking and trying new things too.. You want your g/f to help you more or get into it? Enjoying what you, like correct? Maybe make it a sensual thing, that may entice her a little your way and give you other benefits as well.
