Flatmates and meal planning

Shifted to Bangalore a couple of months ago, in a flat with 3 other folks It’s been mostly nice, but the lack of cooperation with respect to food is a deep pain point One guy is a vegetarian, another wants to eat unhealthy, someone wants to eat just rice for every frickin meal All in all, as somebody who just wants to eat basic chicken and boiled eggs or just some basic sabzi (oh btw, nobody eats vegetables, amazing) - I’m really caught between a rock and a hard place They’re chilled dudes, I’ve tried to bring it up also, but nobody ever lets anything stick or be followed. Gonna do an intervention tonight, wish me luck folks ✌️ If anybody has experience dealing with flatmates and food, please guide. Am I doing anything wrong?

+1. Cooking for 1 is very easy and the time needed reduces in 1-2 months. Buy an OTG and have grilled chicken and veggies everyday. Meal planning with flatmates doesn’t work.

U should have discussed this prior to moving in... Now, Make a routine with consensus of all 3 flatmates... Or get swiggy one subscription

Yeah, that’s the aim for the discussion tonight Trying to ensure everyone gets something, but nobody loses completely One Swiggy One Subscription - our cook will leave us if we all ask her to make something basis our individual needs

Good luck. You may not like this, but I predict a breakup. Divergent food and financial habits are cyanide for relationships.

Been in such a situation with flatmates for years. Nothing changes. Best is to pay the cook extra and get your own requirement fulfilled. Keep a separate cabinet in the kitchen and the fridge for your groceries.
