Help me rationalize this because he's otherwise a nice guy but his food pickiness makes me cringe

Is it possible he has undiagnosed ARFID? I had issues eating new things until I got on anxiety medication and had a similar (but not as extreme) diet.

If hes that picky with food, hes probably unwilling to try new things and experiences.

Do you want kids? Do you want them to eat like that?

Do you want a partner who dies of a heart attack five years from now?

"Nice" is not a high bar to clear

My tubes are tied and I'm too old for that anyway, but the health concerns are valid.
