Small = petit(masculine) petite(feminine) Girl = fille Friend= ami (M) amie (F) But when I wana say I have a girlfriend, the translation is J'ai une petite amie. Instead of J'ai une fille amie. Is there a reason why the actual full translation is different?

Yes. Those expressions are idiomatic in both English and French. A girlfriend is *not* just a friend who happens to be a girl, so there's no reason to translate it literally.
