I'm not talking about a timeline for meeting them, I already met her parents, her sister and brother, they live in our city!
I'm just not into driving 150 miles in this holiday, sleeping in a house with people I never saw before,etc. I just don't want it right now!

OK, calm down.
You've already told her this. So what is the problem? They cannot kidnap you and force you to go.

And we all naturally assumed that you meant it was too early in the relationship to meet her family. But you've already met them. So what gives?
Whose house are you actually going to? Who are these people you've never seen before?
You seem to be decompensating mentally over this whole thing. It's one weekend. You've never spent a weekend away before?
Do you ever get to a point where you do step outside your comfort zone and try new things? Or is this how you always live your life by avoiding all situations that you think you can't handle for whatever reason?

Say no. Repeat and increase the intensity of your no until they get the message. Problem solved
He also tried to back out of being best man at his best friend's wedding because he just! didn't! want! to! go!
OP, do you have problems adjusting to unfamiliar settings? You are going to miss out on a lot in life if you don't get a handle on this.
I didn't try, and yes I'm going to his wedding.

150 miles will take 2 hours.
What is the big deal?
Road trips are FUN! You can play music and stop at fun places along the way, and flirt with your young GF in the car.
What about that doesn't sound good to you?
