The relationship I'm in is ending because I cooked.

I've been dating a man for almost two years. We live separately. Up until now, I have been the one cooking. I take pride in my cooking and put a lot of time and effort into it. I make nutritious and delicious food. We eat out occasionally but mostly it's homecooked. I have been the one paying for groceries a lot more than him. He has asked to go out for food multiple times in the last few days and I just don't feel like it. <br><br>He was making a big deal about how I never let him order food for us, but honestly I get home from work and I am tired. Why go out when I can just make a meal in 30 minutes that I know we'll enjoy? <br><br>Today he started saying some demeaning things about how I'm not letting him get food for us because I feel like "I'm too good for fast food and take out". I disagreed and said that I have no problem with fast food/take out. He started going on about how I'm just going to keep on cooking and he's going to get "fat" from my cooking. I'm confused as to why he thinks my cooking is making him "fat". I don't understand why my cooking is a problem. <br><br>He told me I wasn't allowing him to take care of me and that he wanted to take care of me by getting food for us. I told him I don't need to be "taken care of" like that and that if he wants to take care of me then help me cook or do the dishes. He got mad and said I was being controlling because I was still expecting him to help me cook. I feel very confused and hurt. Am I being controlling? What is going on? I feel like I'm doing so much of the heavy lifting in the relationship and I don't understand why he's complaining.<br><br>This conversation has now escalated to him telling me he needs space and is "done" with the relationship. I don't want this relationship to end. I don't understand why he's being like this. I don't want to give in to his demands or be seen as controlling, but I don't want to lose this relationship. I'm so confused and hurt.
