This original post got me thinking about my own relationship... 

I too like making life easier for my girlfriend.  I find true joy in knowing that I have done something to make my girlfriend of 2 years' life easier or better.

We were talking the other night and she said something of how she liked how helpful I am but it's funny because she mostly goes for the big macho guys.

It was just a little comment but it definitely made me feel small. Then I read that other original post on r/relationships and it scared me.  It basically shows how you can be blind and overlook when a SO makes you feel small for when you normally behave and have a normal loving relationship.

Is this something that normally happens?  If I don't address the way she made me feel am I going down a slippery slope of abuse? Or is this something to just move on with? She didn't mean any harm by it, so I want to just move on, but that is literally a line the OP from the original post said.  Weird.

Girlfriend made me feel small via a small comment, read original post on reddit that basically shows how you can be oblivious to small things when in a loving relationship. Weird things

GF makes me feel small and i'm not sure wether it's normal or abusive to ignore it or address it. Is that line from original post still relevant?
