Body issues as a cis lesbian

I’m tired of being so influenced by society. When I look in the mirror, I feel fine with what I see, and even do modeling. But I can’t help but always think that my loving partner isn’t completely satisfied with the way I look. I’m honestly obsessed with it and this caused our first real fight. She is transgender MTF, and got a breast augmentation. Since then, she says that her perceptions have changed and I appear smaller. It hurts me, and I know she didn’t mean to. But now I’m very fixated on this. How do I stop hyper focusing on this comment? Our experiences in life are very different and hard for either of us to understand

hey hey heart i understand how tough that can be, comments from people we care lots for can stink to the mind, and overthinking it can get hurtful, they mean it or not.. i'm glad to know you generaly have a positive self image, and it isn't easy having that effected badly by that comment
you definietly do have different background stories and experiences and understanding eachother all the time might get hard, tho have you considered talking to your partner and describing how it made you feel?? if you did that, how would the conversation go??
p.s. happy pride month!
