So her grandfather died after alot of hospitalizations, and she definatley saw it coming and so did her family but she isn't taking it well. I have to drive awhile and meet her family, which i've never done, and I really don't want to go. We aren't very serious. Is it -ev to just say "I don't want to go." and be honest?

I don't think lying is a good line... and I wouldn't expect her to attend a wake for my family and I doubt I would even invite her unless she knew the family member.

need help =-0

If you don't want to break up, go. If you do, then be honest, then break up with her in a couple of weeks.

What if I don't want to break up and I don't want to go?

To be honest if she dumps me because of this, then she coudn't think too much of me the first place.

You are failing to see this from her point of view. She clearly thinks that you should be there to support her.

You should probably go if you care about her at all.

It is uncomfortable, but you should go.

Absolutely. It's a funeral; don't be shallow. This isn't about you, it's about your G/F and her family. Besides, you'll score points later on if the relationship leads to anything.

And if it's a grandmother, it's not like 100 people are going to be sobbing and devestated. You'll be able to meet people who weren't close but are there for support. It's not like it's a 12 year old kid that was run over by a car.
