Sounds like anxiety. Mild nausea and loss of appetite are something that I deal with on a daily basis. If you are happy then it could just be nervous excitement, like having butterflies in your stomach.

Yeah, OP didn't say how long they'd been together but if it's a new relationship after 3 years of being friends, especially if they're young and/or there's been lingering feelings for some time before becoming "official", then anxiety and nervous excitement is likely to be high!
Go to the same restaurants at the same time under the same conditions (i.e. how recently you ate another meal, day of the week, the weather, etc.) but with a different person and see if you still feel ill. Vary the conditions until you find one that correlates with your illness. Then try altering that condition.
If you feel ill under all conditions then see a doctor. In fact it might be good to make a doctor appointment anyway.
yeah good idea honestly
But babe, we have to go out tonight. It's for science!
"You're not my sidechick, you're my control condition!"
"I know you're sick of it, but I'm gonna need you to get the chicken Parm again. Trust the process!"
Isolating variables like this is so cool!
unit testing eating?
Are you just really nervous about being on a date?
It’s called an anxiety attack. Talk to a therapist about it.
too poor for therapy lol (I need it but womp womp)
Then journal. Dump your thoughts onto paper, consider and reconsider. Just write out what you think. It can be a text file, a paper notebook with pen, whatever. Just write a lot.
yeah that could help, I've just always been a "bottle it up and call it a day" kind of guy
dunno, my mental health has been improving now that I'm out of school honestly so well see

I’ve heard great things about these self-help tools from the Australian Centre for Clinical Interventions: https://www.cci.health.wa.gov.au/Resources/Looking-After-Yourself/Social-Anxiety
It's because you're pregnant.
But on all seriousness, some say that there are cases when the would-be-father also feels nauseous with food when the girl gets pregnant.
Studio audience: OOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
don't think that's a possibility currently
very interesting tho
Maybe she's poisoning you to get even for not asking her out earlier.
Is this one of those "red flags" people keep talking about?

Anxiety?
If that tiny idiot of an amygdala in your brain thinks you're in danger then nausea can be a symptom.
This happened to me as well. I'd take a few bites of a meal and feel full/ nauseous; Sometimes even throw up. It went away after maybe 6 months of dating and we joke about it now 12 years later.
We chalked it up to nerves, but no one can tell for sure. Best of luck OP! Guessing you really like this person.
I hope that's it and it goes away on. its own
yeah we've liked eachother for two years now, but I was too dense to realized she liked me back and she was too shy to say anything lol
My husband would get wild upset stomachs before we went out on a date. His aunt would tease him that he was allergic to me. It was anxiety.
I could spend the whole weekend with him in his apartment, and he'd feel fine. It only happened before we planned to go out to dinner specifically. Lunch was nbd to his brain.

Maybe she's poisoning you just a tiny bit at a time. Kidding, but have you guys eaten a meal at home together without you feeling sick?
not really, she came over once and we ate like polish crepes i made, and that was fine, but not much of a meal, no

Allergies maybe? Most women use special makeup for dates. It could be something she's wearing like lipstick. It could be something in the food like peanuts or olive oil.
Perfume?
Try cooking dinner at home together and see if it happens.
Are you reacting to her perfume? Maybe she didn't put it on when you were just friends.
no she definetly did, same one as always, and its not strong
also that would make me nauseous in the car as well, not just when eating
Maybe there's something you need to get off your chest. Maybe you feel like you're not being true to yourself.
If you feel like something needs to change in your relationship, better to put it out there and work through it than keep it hidden.
Anxiety is a possibility, even if you aren’t actively feeling it. This is a good opportunity to seek help from a professional, even if it’s nothing related to that.
probably due to inflation and the price increase 🤷🏻
Does she chew with her mouth open?
Stan?
Edit: It was a South Park Stan + Wendy reference, but I get the Eminem one too.
