Im broke till 2marrow and our anniversary is today. I love my girlfriend but she is upset at me for supposely not being with her yesterday when she was sick. her troat hurted and I had to attend to my sisters problem at her house which my girlfriend just took it as if I didn't want to spend time with her. Look she has a 4yr old son and he called me 2 times saying why i didn't take with me she told me that he was thinking i wasn't going to come back. It was late at night and got home about 11:05 @ night. My sisters problem was that her daughter ran away and she called the cops. My family is really important to me and that's probably why my girlfriend is upset. Don't know what to do?

Yes. You need to communicate better with the son, and your girlfriend. If you tell someone you are going to be somewhere, but something comes up, call and say so. Perhaps the 2 of you weren't on the same page. You thought she'd be ok, and she thought you'd be with her. Nobody's wrong, you just didn't see the situatuion the same way. That's called life. Right now, or as soon as possible, go over to their house. Sit the mom and son down. tell them that you know they are feeling slighted, but they need to know that wasn't at all your intention. You were overwhelmed with responsibility at the time, and you should ALL do a better job expressing expectations. A SIMPLE CALL FROM EITHER ONE OF YOU TO PUT YOURSELVES "ON THE SAME PAGE". Even if you disagree, at least the other person will know where you stand and know that there was no bad intention. the son actually sounds like a pretty good communicator for his age!!! Tell them that you love them and you feel terrible that they were upset.Often, when we take the responsibility, it opens up the other person's eyes to the fact that this was not something that you should turn into a bad situation, and we are all human.

By theway, the $ issue. tell her exactly what you told us. tell her you'd love to lavish her like the queen she is to you, and give her lots of attention.

Hey hun sounds like your going thought it! your sister needed you yesterday and it was very important. your girl should surely realise this.

Sit your girl and her little boy down and tell them both what they mean to you how important they are to you. explain that your sister needed you and that it was important that you were there to support her though that. but that doesn't change a single feeling you have for them.



Plan to do something nice with them for the weekend so you can all spend some quality time together.

As for your anniversary (today) pick some flowers for her and go home run her a nice bath put candles around the bathroom for her and let her relax, put the little lad to bed read him a story then spend the rest of the night with your girl and don't forget to tell her you love her. You don't need money to tell her that or make her feel special.

the best things in life are free! Make sure you care for her like you do your family. Sing her a song, write her a poem, make her a nice pot of chicken soup. Love dosent have to cost a thing! Just talk to her, spend time with her. Tell her you wanted to wait till she was well to go out!

Make her a card so she won't feel bad
