You cant make people not be afraid of something...they either are or they aren't and if you really like her, you will accept that and take another mate with you instead of her. Remeber: Just because you have a gf, it doesn't mean you have 2 do everything with her i mean coz then..it would be scary and you would be in a helluva lot of trouble ; )
Or i suppose you could just make her go on roller coasters over and over again until she gets used to it, if you really wanted to go with her...

Well everyone on here is very lucky. I have NEVER been on any roller coasters or even seen one in real life!! However I have been on the egg roll. It's not that high and all it does is flip and spin in a circle like a ferris wheel. ALL my life I have been freaked out about goin on it,,and never went on. Then one day, 5 years later I might add, I was sick of bein scared especially when all my friends would always talk about how much fun it was. So I was just brave, didn't think of the scary part and went on. Oh ya, and screaming DOES HELP trust me. Just remeber, people go on these rides ALL DAY LONG YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR. The whole time you get on just keep thinking, this is just for fun,nothing will happen, I WILL HAVE FUN lol and don't let any scary thoughts come into your head. Then once it starts you will have a BLAST!

Congrats on scoring the tickets! There is a way for the two of you to have fun, just remember to be patient when she doesn't want to do something.
Coasters are just not for everyone, and some people just dont like that out of control feeling that a roller coaster is known for. However, I know of more than one coaster enthusiast that have been terrified of coasters at one point, usually their childhood, and now they can't stay off of them. It despends on the individual.
First off, start off small, and work your way up to the "bigger" rides. Many parks have family rides for the the entire family and those folks that just aren't ready for the biggest coaster in the park. If you start out small, she may just opt for a coaster or two at the end of the day! You just never know. Just remember not to pressure her, and go at her pace. Once she feels comfortable, she may try something bigger.
Balance out the day with smaller attractions that she may enjoy, and take a friend of hers along so she can have someone else to talk to and hang out with while you get a ride or two on the bigger rides. You could also see a couple shows. It would probally be best to get a small group of people together. That way you can still ride the bigger rides, but your girlfriend can still enjoy her day as well.
Enjoy your trip!

Six flags isn't totally roller coaster so you can go on different rides or you can take her on the slower roller coasters before asking to go on the big ones. Promise to hold her on the ride as well.

Try riding on smaller (not so scary) rollar coasters a few times.Then dare her to go on the bigger one and if she Does, you can give her a few bucks! Even my little sister that's only 7 would ride a big, scary rollar coasters!

Take a friend or a brother or sister it sounds like they'd appreciate it more. Most rides are scary that's just how it is. Your day would probably be ruined if she went with you and she wouldn't be having any fun either. I can just imagine her whining every time you try to get her on a ride and you missing out because you don't want to exclude her. So, the two of you just walk around and maybe ride the carousel.
Take someone else, like I said, Brother or Sister, maybe a buddy.

You can't but she she should think about going just to hang out with you. She doesn't actually have to get on the rides, they only last a couple of minutes. She could be your official photographer. You could both go to shows together and there are rides other than rollercoasters she might go on. But if you want to do nothing but ride rollercoasters all day, do you both a favor and take a friend instead.

Just tell her that the death rate of people dieing on a roller coaster is 1 in 5

Don't eat anything a few hours before she goes on, try to go in the front as it goes the slowest going down at first, breath in when at top and breathe out when going down, it helped me get over roller coasters until i loved them

i don't really like that feeling either when it's a huge slope -- but going on rollercoasters with loops i think is not that bad, maybe you can encourage that? Start with smaller ones, don't push her too much. Usually it's just the anticipation, but once you get off you're like "that's it?" Usually if the line's not too long, i'll just jump on and tell myelf to get over it. But if it's too long, I'll keep thinking about it and convince myself not to.
