Love life and family life

On reading some of the threads here, family unity caught my eye. I have a girlfriend who tells me that I spend more time than I should with my family ( parents, brothers, sometimes cousins) The truth of the matter though, is that I don't- and most of the time that I spend with them are for my dinners. Anyhow, one day she became extremely irritated at me for it and wanted me to skip famliy time for girlfriend time. That may not be so unreasonable, but I see her everyday and the amount of time I spend with my famliy is almost only exclusive to dinners and sometimes weekends. Is it a turnoff for girls if their guy spends time with their family or has a healthy, stable relationship with their family? I suspect that maybe it's because she does not get along well with her folks, which is the case. But be frank with me, and tell me if I am at fault here? Because of this situation, some distance was created between us and we haven't seen each other as often as we used to. There are times when it feels like if I end up marrying her, I would be "restricted" from seeing my family or having the same relationship I share with them right now..
