A few thoughts based on eliminating/ruling out possible causes:

Can you avoid making cell -> cell calls? If you're both on a smartphone with wifi could you use e.g. Skype or Messenger?

Can you both use a hands free kit? This should eliminate poor positioning of the microphone/earpiece.

Are you or your girlfriend in a poor signal area? Does going outside to make the call reduce the problem? There are options such as GSM signal boosters and femtocells that might be worth exploring.

Some carriers have deployed HD Voice service. See if your phone and carrier(s) support this.
