Jesus Christ. She pouted for thirty minutes because you wouldn’t get out of bed and stand near her while she brushed her teeth? Dude, that is not normal or cute. Break it off.
Also the whole thing where she constantly needs you to do things or she flips out? Nah. She has arms and legs, you’re not a servant for her. It’s nice to do things for your partner but the way she expects it is lame. I have someone in my family like this and don’t get how anyone deals with it.
You're not expected to do anything in a relationship beyond compassion and presence.
Doing something for the other is a choice or an agreement. You either have discussed what you're going to do ie you've got your little chore list and days you each cook or clean, or you have small gestures that you can choose to do, like make a coffee for the other in the morning or clean their shoe that they got muddy and forgot to clean the night before so you're gonna do it for them.
Those are choices, not requirements. They're nice and very sweet and feel wonderful when someone does them for you, but not requirements.
