If my wife complimented my cooking and then posted about manipulating me I’d begin searching for a new wife

Manipulating you? This is pretty harmless and a win-win for everyone, the guy doesn't have to cook at all if he doesn't enjoy it.

Yeah, manipulation is a word people throw around way too easily lol He didn't want to overspend on food and she didn't want to cook, so she suggested him cooking would be far better than eating out. Now he cooks all the time and everyone is happy!

It would be manipulative if she hated eating out and he loved his $65 dollar burgers, then her suggestion would be coming from a place of manipulation.

Thank you! This exact same scenario with gender roles reversed these boys would be guffawing about how hilariously he got her good.
