My GF said I am not affectionate enough, so now I treat her like my dog. My GF loves it.

It's the personality trait of Openness. People with high Openness look on the rest of us who aren't high Openness as less than human. Look up Big 5 personality traits.

Wouldn't the relevant Big 5 traits be extraversion and agreeableness? Besides that, I'm high in openness and see it as a potentially catastrophic mindset. It's also lessened with age, and even back during my university days, I didn't see low openness individuals as subhuman. There are smooth brain characteristics more deserving of that status.

Most high Openness people do. If we can't feel like they do, there's something terribly wrong with us.
