I always say I cook for one; one week at a time. Partially it is because cooking can take a lot of time but it takes about the same amount of time whether you're cooking 1 serving or 10 so 10 is more efficient. And though it may be a bit oddly cobbled together, there's usually enough food at my house that unexpected guests would not leave hungry.
I'm more likely to feel guilty about spending too much time or unnecessary money on myself. Going out to eat somewhere that it costs me a week's food budget for one meal seems selfish and wasteful to me and I end up feeling rather selfish if I do that. I'm learning to spend money on myself, but it's not something I find easy yet.
On the other hand, it's always nice to be invited over to someone's house for dinner, so if you wanted to try to start a dinner club or something of friends who took turns making dinner for each other, well that would be a good use of negative feelings whether logical and justified or not.

Note to self: Leftovers always available at cinder's house. 
Some people call their refrigerators "Resurrection City" because they put stuff in there and take it out three months later covered with new life. I never have understood those people. There is perfectly good food in the fridge and they let it go bad?!
