My girlfriend is angry at me for not messaging her enough... What can I do?

[556]

My girlfriend is angry at me because I didn't message her enough on FB. I was really busy with work and university that I ran out of time.

Now she's saying that I don't care about her and that I find her boring, which is not true. I apologised many times and said I'll start messaging her more, but she's still angry at me.

How can I make her forgive me?

I think the best way to fix thanks is to do what you said and that is to message her more. That will show that you really are sorry and that you want what you said.

You don't. You tell her that she is important to you, and you'll try to make more of an effort to reach out. But she in turn needs to understand that you have other obligations, and that much as you'd like to have all the free time in the world to talk to her, you don't and sometimes she's just going to have to wait until you can reply. If that's not going to work for her, then you really don't know what to say or do, because you can't change that.
