I only tend to cook if I'm feeding my sister, or if I have guests which is very rare.

Now im retired i dont have breakfast or dinner.If i go hungry i eat a couple of biscuits.Drinking tea coffee or juice all day so im rarely feeling hungry.
I always have an evening meal at whatever time i feel like it between 5 or gone midnight. I only use plate knife fork and or spoons so to clean takes minutes. I cook everything in foil lined or baking paper lined tins so i can just chuck the wreckage on the fire or in the bin and not have to wash greasy ovenware.
Any pans or baking ware i leave to soak overnight then they clean up in minutes.
When i worked and had a 5 bedroom house and two acre garden i worked 12 hour shifts trained for rowing and cycling 3 hours a day and did all my household chores crap and cooked three meals a day.And sorted my mum and grand parents shopping and household issues. I dont know how I did but i did.
Having partners i just found a major hindrance because they totally fucked up my routine, made a fucking mess and seemingly expected me to clean it up and seemingly expected me to cook for them while they sat about watching tv drinking beer and wine and smoking spliffs because theyd had a 'hard day ay work' AND expect me to take them out socialising or clubbing when i was off duty...
I dont need a partner that much, that might be obvious.Im not very relationship friendly.
The inconvenience of cooking for myself and washing a few dishes is infinitely better than having the chore of coping with a lazy git partner...and i always seem to find the lazy using gits
A slave kind of appeals, but ive never met anyone who actually does their job properly so id probably end up doing stuff myself anyway which defeats the object of slavery.

I Am A Nibbler Rather Than A Dinner Eater HAHAHA .... So I Am On And Off Nibble At This And Nibble At That And I Think Being Single Be Having A Lot To Do With That... Cos You Don’t Have To Cool Etc At A Certain Time And Cool Certain Things And Think For Two Foods Etc Etc So For Me Being Single Means No Tick Tocks Of Mans World Time Is The Right Or Wrong Times To Eat ... Because I Eat And Nibble When I’m Hungry Snd Don’t Eat Or Nibble When I Not Be It Day Or Nitez And I Eat/Nibble/Cook Etc Etc Whatever I Fancy Or Like And Don’t Group Foods Either Meaning Breakfast Foods At Breakfast Like Cereals Etc Cos I Will Eat Them Whenever I Want Be It Morning Or Afternoon Or Nitez And Sweet Treats And Cakes And Biscuits Etc If I Want Them At Nitez Or Breakfast And Lunch Foods And Dinner Foods Etc Etc ....Cos I Will ...Have Em Whatever And When I Fancy Them  So I Kinda Guess Single Also Means Noooo Rules ...No Set Times....No Right Or Wrong Foods And No Grouping Of Foods Etc Etc Cos I Simply Eat What I Fancy And Eat Or Nibble Etc I Want At Anytime Of Days Or Nitez  |

Eat when you hungry sleep when you tired is best.
Ive never worked normal hours or had normal weeks,just work time and time off.
It helps if you plan ahead to make better use of your time and always finish the job you doing.If you cook, clean up afterwards then youre not faced with washing dishes before you next eat.
My friend does my head in,go into the kichen first thing in morning every worktop is covered in wreckage from dinner the night before and sink is piled high in dirty dishes and pans.
I feel like dragging in the wheelie bin and binning the lot. 😁

Currently eating chocolate, biscuits and sweet. Makes life easy.
When I was in the valley, I cooked for others, because I didn't want to let them down, I found the energy.

On the odd occasion I cook I try not to do dishes, if I haven't broken any a full dinner set of plates and bowls lasts me a month, without washing up. Every so often I met someone needing a favour and in return I need my dishes done, I hate eating with plastic cutlery off a paper plate so that's not an option.
In new new new new van I plan on having a dishwasher

Telling someone i live in a trailer usually worked quite well at ending any dating chat.I save on washing up only having enough crocks for a meal for one.
