Feels like everyone around me loves to cook, talking about smoked meats, dishes, deserts to prepare, etc. I guess after years of reality TV cooking shows influencing a lot of people.

Obv as an adult I do cook for myself, but it's the bare minimum and it's not an enjoyable activity (steak on the pan, frozen peas and corn in the microwave or an oven baked chicken breast). I swear I get more joy out of clean dishes at the end of the night than a prepared meal.

I cook with my girlfriend and that's fine for a couple's activity but that's a bit different.

How many other people hate cooking?

Lol?

What you describe can barely be called cooking. Try some fresh ingredients ffs.

Cooking is enjoyable but clean up sucks it's why it is at times difficult to motivate myself to cook.

I also find it weird that you blame people cooking on tv. TV might encourage people to make fancier stuff but cooking in general is very normal.

I'm at work when I get home I'll tell you some of my favorite recipes that are good and fairly simple.
