Then change yourself into what you would like to be. That would probably be a product of OCD. Basically you feel an overwhelming feeling you can explain, almost like something horrible is going to happen when you attempt to eat it. You've built up a habit of only eating "safe" foods, probably as a way to cope with something or as product of stress. I'm going to assume it's worse when you're stressed out or overwhelmed too which may come out in other ways. Don't take this the wrong way but (your obsession with love and getting a girl friend. It seems to be something you think about all the time.) You may also have other small things you do to cope with that anxiety feeling. You have to understand the more you push forward and force yourself to eat other foods the less you'll feel that feeling. The best thing to remember is though it feels uncomfortable and overwhelming, but that's all it is. There is no physical harm coming to you. You'll actually feel better once you can push yourself forward and break out of those habits. I've got some really strange OCD habits myself bro. I know you can do it. I nearly cried when I wasn't allowed to throw out a pickle jar because I felt like it wasn't good anymore even though it wasn't past it's expiration date. Haha
Anime isn't really good to get too caught up in that. You may end up ruining a good relationship if you do expect it to be like an anime. Anime skips all the fights over petty things or the times when things aren't so interesting. If they were to show a real relationship it wouldn't be quite as entertaining. (Unless you were showing a really unhealthy one.) It's fine to enjoy the concept of love, or the idea of that kind of love just don't get disappointed when it's not. I think you're more so in love with the idea/feeling of love it's self not so much the girlfriend part.
I could safely agree and say that I am obsessed with love and having a girlfriend. I've longed for it for so long that if the opportunity arose, I would probably whimper out as shown in my communication skills with others.
Already have started changing myself, I no longer sit in front of my computer for hours on end from the moment I get home from school until morning next day, I now do stuff with myself instead of sitting around. That was a big feat if you asked me.
Also with the eating new foods, that's pretty much how I feel. Something really bad is seemingly going to happen if I try something new and I am afraid of the bad things in life. I try to run in the opposite direction of it all the time, but I know, it's life.
As for the anime and love, I know not to mix the two together and I am working on trying to get it through my head that that kind of love doesn't exist, which I see everyday through my best friend and his girlfriend.

When I was about 15 I met the guy who changed my outlook on what love really is.
His exact words to me: You are not a fucking princess, I am not a damn prince on a glorious white horse, I am not here to save you from evil, or take you away to some faraway land to a gigantic castle to live happily ever after. This is no fairy tale. They don't exist. This is life. You are a normal girl, and I am a normal guy. We hate, feel jealous, get sad, and love all at the same time. Love is this... Odd thing. Everyone thinks it is a wonderful feeling. Well, it's hard to explain, but it is hate, anger, happiness, depression, and longing mixed all into one. It never ends with happily ever after.
That is pretty harsh but I understood it. There's a one in a million chance of it being a happily ever after, never rule it out.
