Me and her were supposed to hang out Saturday but I have to go to a function where some of my relatives are gathering at. My parents are forcing me to go.
What can I do to make it up to my girlfriend?

i know a ton of people will say a sick, three letter word, but i'd say hang out with he a LOT more after the event, and just say sorry, but i have to go.

Polish her toenails and fan her with silk scarves...oh, you didn't ask what I wanted.
Just to calm you down a bit, you are going to a family function. Most girls understand that. There will be plenty more Saturdays.
You could always take her to dinner, rent a movie, or just enjoy something that makes the two of you happy.
Puppy love.

You sure are an ignorant little snot-nosed brat. Getting all upset that you have to spend time with your family? Complaining about it on Yahoo Answers? Feeling you have to "make up the time" to your girlfreind? Your family is THE MOST important group of people in your life. Girlfriends will come and go. And quite frankly, if this girl has a problem with you spending time with your family she isn't a quality individula in the the first place. Smarten up, be grateful you HAVE family to spend time with, go to the function and treat all your relatives with the respect they deserve for putting up with a whining kid like the likes of you.

Your girlfriend should understand if she really likes you
You know there are somethings you have to do out of respect!
You shouldn't have to make anything up to her and you should be HAPPY to visit with your relatives. You sound as if you are being sentenced to the Death Penalty or something
There will be more than this one occasion that will separate you two in your life time and I don't think you will DIE from it!
Grow up and get some respect for those who have always been in your life for YOU!!! shame shame

I'm sure she'll understand and if she doesn't, then she's not really a good girlfriend. You should never feel guilty about spending time with your family. So either take her or apologise and tell her it can't be avoided. But don't make it up to her!! You've got nothing to be sorry for!!?

Well you can always try to do other things for her. If your parents are forcing you to go somewhere, trust me you should go. Though, remind your girlfriend that you won't forget about her and when you get back, spend time with her to make up for the time you weren't with her. If she's extremely sad, and you know she is but she's not showing it (had experienced with my girlfriend.) surprise her and take her somewhere interesting that YOU KNOW she would like.

Take her with you, if you can't take her for some weird reason then while you are at the gathering, call her once or twice, then take her out next saturday. But you should try really hard to take her with you.

If this was a more mature relationship (NO OFFENSE) it wouldn't be an issue of making it up to her. She should understand the importance of family. But if she's selfish and upset that you have to be with your family I would suggest a special night of doing whatever the hell it is she likes. Give her what she wants that'll make her happy.
Sorry, it just upsets me that anyone would get mad at their boyfriend/girlfriend for something like a family event. Its like being mad because they go to visit their dying grandmother in the hospital. Its just selfish.

Is taking her with you out of the question? If so, maybe you can see her afterwards (you know, excuse yourself from the function about 9pm and have a late romantic meal with your girlfriend around 10pm or so?) Just be creative....things happen, but she'll understand if you keep her reasonably well-informed. Good luck.

If u think it's ok to bring ur girlfriend to the family function, then take her with you. If not, you should tell her that u have to change/reschedule ur date. A good girlfriend will understand (and it will show that she values family, which is a good asset for ur future). Good luck.

If you've been together long enough then ask your parents if you can bring her along. It will give her a chance to meet the family and usually girls love that. It will allow you to hang out with your family and be with your girlfriend too. It's win-win.
