Re: " I am telling you right now … "
Agree. When someone says “I can’t cook/clean, etc”…it may even be meant/interpreted as “Don’t expect me to be an expert at these things, cuz I’m not at that stage…I’m not good at it.” These skills can be developed over time. However, when someone says they “won’t”…it’s a bigger problem as their mind is already made up. In a rishta-meet setting…I guess a clarification would have to be sought as to whether the person’s “can’t” means “not there yet”..or just a plain “ain’t gonna do it.”
