I think my husband dislike my food

Ever since we got married, I realized that my husband always takes sweet after dinner before going to bed. I did not quickly notice this attitude of his since both of us work and come late at night. After I notice this in him, I started to monitor his actions after dinner. To my surprise, he never for once skipped a night without taking sweet and if he does not do so, he brushes his mouth.

One night after dinner when we were about to sleep, I decided to ask him what I noticed. I asked him, dear, why do you like taking sweet after dinner? 

He replied, I am use to it. I have been doing this even before we met. I questioned him back - but sometimes you do not take sweet and you brush your mouth? He replied; well it gives me the same feeling like sweet and beside it is good after dinner. I could not get where to hold him from his words, so I let it be and we slept. Though I wanted to be okay with his Excuse but something in me is still curious. I told my friends about this and they were quick to throw my fear straight at me ‘girl friend I think your food is not appealing to your husband’ this response really spoilt my day as I hate to admit my thought could be right. 

One afternoon, I decided I was going to get some facts out. I called him during office hours and we talked and laughed; before I dropped, I told him to drop by my office side that I would love to host him in a nice restaurant just like old times before we got married. He agreed. He came and we went to the restaurant and we ordered for food but he did not allow me to pay the bills. After we ate, talked and laughed, we stood up to start going home and he said what a lovely evening- and I said, what is about the evening? 

He said I enjoyed all we talked about and to make it more fun is that the food is full of lovely taste. That statement changed my mood immediately and to crown it up was we got home and he hug me and said what a lovely evening dear and he went straight to bed without brushing his mouth or even taking any sweet.

 I could not sleep throughout the night. After so many yes or no in my thoughts, I decided I was not going to ask him on the issue any more, because I thought in myself - if I press further on this issue and he now opens up and my thoughts of the food is real; then it would be a hard knock to take. I will rather believe his response and work on my cooking.
