    Does your girlfriend know you don't like the other guy going? If she does and arranged this event anyway then you ought to be speaking to her. If not, explain to her why you don't like him, and if your reasons aren't enough to get you out of it, suggest going to a movie or doing something that involves as little contact and communication as possible. If you have to do something that involves a lot of communication, try to get along. Maybe if you are cordial to him even though you hate him your girlfriend will do something she's not into for you.

    For your girlfriends sake, just go and deal with it for the night. It probably means a lot to her for you all to go out together. One night with someone you don't like isn't going to kill you.

    Throughout life, you are always going to be surrounded by people, some of which you probably won't like very much. You can't always get away from them, or do something stupid when you're around them. This situation is no different.

    If you have a really good reason to not like the guy, tell your girlfriend that you prefer not to go, and that maybe the girls should just go on their own.

    Just an idea, hope that helps.

    The greatest test of maturity is how we deal with people we don't like. Be polite. Talk about neutral topics (no religion, or politics), don't focus on his gf to much to avoid him or he will get the idea that you want her. Talk to your gf before you go, have her help you come up with safe topics, and a signal from her that you are going to far, and a signal from you that you need help (both subtle of course). Talking to your gf will let her know how you are feeling and that you respect her and her opinions. Keep an open mind, you may find you will start to like him a little more when you get to know him better (You didn't say why you don't like him, so I'm guessing here). If you don't like him because he is mean or has some not so nice habits, ignore the bad things as much as you can, both girls will appreciate it. If you can't ignore them, take a break, use the bathroom, remind yourself that it is only for a short time, then get back there and support your gf.

    Well buddy you know what to do... if you care about your girlfriends feelings you'll go... Just be a man and go.. act mature..Nobodies telling you to go and become best friends with him...but also... if you don't like this guy... then she should understand...So basically you go and be a man or she understands you and you guys have a double date with someone else..

    it's so sneaky but totally tell your friends where you're going to be at and make it like a total surprise like you can't believe you ran into each other there then you'll be forced to all hang out

    just chill and try to stay away from the guy and he makes you mad just take deep beathes and try your best not to think about wanting to kick his butt.
