Asking BF to contribute to food bills when he stays over

I've been with my BF for nearly a year, it's my 1st relationship since I split with the kids dad 3 yrs ago..
I'm a single parent, I don't struggle but I don't save much either.. my issue is my BF never ever buys anything that we eat.. due to cost of babysitters etc we don't go out much..maybe every 3 months? He's over every weekend and I'm starting to feel a bit resentful about buying and cooking all our meals.. part of me feels a bit guilty for feeling this way, I earn way more than him but..he doesn't have many expenses,surely he can see what I do and offer? It's the fact he hasnt/,doesn't offer that is making me cross .. I don't know how to approach it as I don't want to cause a rift but I am fed up..any ideas..?

I’m in a very similar situation to you. Did this get resolved, has your relationship survived?

Better to start your own thread, you’ll get many more responses.

What is your situation?

It's a bit worrying you feel guilty and haven't been able to raise this really.
