But I must tell you warning story.I knew one girl that was interesting about D&D games. And she slipped that information to some half-friends (not fiends). And they got all over her for that. It was polite, but she was kinda shy girl, and didn't like the how exited they became, it made her suspect their motivations. (Yeh, and they would have liked to date her so not complitely untrue). She did get to play rpg:s later, but with another group.Here is another. This one is about me. I told some guys I was interesting in playing some Runequest. And we got onto some discussions of rpg:s and eventually they asked me to play. I was initially interested. HOwever, when we talked some more I started to feel group dynamics were wrong, and they brought liqued there and got drunk. No thanks.Then there was this another group I almost played with. I actually ended up sitting and watching one session. And there I learned their playing-style was weird/I didn't get it/and I didn't like it. Not weird-weird, it was all of it really, campaing focus, long-ongoing game. Took me some effort to politely squirm out of that one. So if you only meet at that club and don't otherwise hang, she might be bit wary. Also no prior experiance with rpg is a big thing. Dont' socially assault her remaining her about it. Get a closure. If it turns out she is not willing to play with you, tell her it's ok and move on, but now you can discuss with her about rpg:s in case she wants to play later with you or some other group. And in case she would be interesting to try out come to her with actual plan, refer to her intrest and tell you would be interesting to showing her how to make character and maybe even play small solo game to get hang of rules. Leave her room to step out, and it's more likely she will actually want to try actual rpg.Coming over to someone's home you don't know that well, is issue for some people. You might want to settle place at library  etc.</blockquote>
