On one hand, I'm really not very fond of how often she's getting damsel'd.
It does manage to play into her dream of having a shining knight though.
I'd prefer it if he were the one getting damsel'd or at least it going back and forth but that's purely my own preferences cropping up, and at least the circumstances are realistic as others mention, and the moment it becomes feasible for her to act she generally does. I really do find it a bit tiring, though it definitely fits into the dynamic of the story and characters well enough.
Ironically, if she weren't such a meathead, she might've realized that the person being physically stronger than her wasn't an actual requirement, and she could've fully fallen in love with his cute side given time. Given her reaction back in chapter 1 I think she might've given enough time anyways.
But, well, his physical strength on top of it really fast tracked its way to her heart.
