I just want to give you forewarning @WatchOutLilBih its not the healthiest way to solve a problem between you and your old lady, but you asked how would I deal with it, and I'm guessing you want to have the person "come to their senses" in a way. It's a battle coming for sure

Sounds exhausting. Pettiness is a form of passive aggression and PA destroys romantic relationships fast. I don't even like pettiness in my friendships.

The best thing to do with a petty person is counteract their behaviors wih genuineness. Arguing will make you go around in circles. Being genuine willforce them to see you as a person and not a play thing.

One example for the girl who ignores or forgets parts of your conversation (Which is manipulative af btw) is to sit her down, look her in the eye and say "what's going on here?" Wait for her answer. Then make a statement posed as an observation: "when you forget things I know we talked about, it feels like you're trying to manipulate me into something. I'm not going to tolerate that. It's a miserable way to live and it's not what I want. If you want to live that way, that's fine. But for me and my relationships, I will not stand for it." She'll change fast if she loves you. She'll be surprised that you didn't take up the fight she was trying to pick. She will be taken back with your directness and how you connected your personhood to her actions. She will respect that you expect more from the people in your life.

Being petty gets old and annoying. Many people find that shyt cute, it's not. I would stop dealing with anyone if you desire to be petty all the time. I'll let you become someone else problem, my nerves aren't built for that mess anymore.
Yeah I've noticed a lot of people brag about being petty now. It's good for a meme but it's annoying for adults.

Passive aggressiveness.

"Oh, you don't remember giving me a hard time about trying to help your mom get in touch with my uncle for a referral? Well then I apologize. Clearly I misunderstood the conversation and it's all my fault. I will try harder in the future to communicate better." Sarcastic emphasis on the "I" and "My".

sort of piggybacking off this

in a relationship you guys need to address issues like this immediately.
not after its been the other persons modus operandi for 6 months or 2 years.
people generally treat us how we allow them to treat us

address immediately, first time
bush them if they cant or are unwilling to change

once theyve done something 20x and you aint gone anyplace
most likely they will continue to pull that behavior right back out their toolbox.

shyt like this is disrespectful
if a woman doesnt respect you as a man
youd be a fool to not throw her in the bushes
or you must like it

End the relationship, or at least be petty enough to legit end it over ANYTHING you perceive to be a legitimate misstep.
