7 years is a long time. By that time you know the person long enough to be secure in your relationship, you should have zero questions to whether you trust them and want to be with them, and have a strong foundation to build your life together. For her to be influenced by colleagues she’s just met, who’ve never met the the OP, shows how little respect she has for him and that she doesn’t have his back. If I was in a relationship, no matter how long and serious it was, I wouldn’t allow them to talk about my partner like that. If it was a best friend who had a valid concern, I would listen but make the decision on my own.

This has caused so many fights to the point of thinking of breaking up. Am I crazy?
No, sexual compatibility is important in a relationship and you don't have it. Compatability is much more than just frequency.
Idk what food item it is, you shouldn't compare your partners body to it.
