[QUOTE="Surgoshan, post: 4143229, member: 61205"] Her interest might not stem from the best reason, but it's there. It doesn't matter that she's doing it solely because she wants to spend more time with her boyfriend and show an interest in a hobby that's important to him. The fact is that both he and she want her to be there and it's in everyone's interest to try and get her involved. Otherwise the boyfriend may, quite correctly, surmise that everyone wants his annoying girlfriend to **** off and be angry on her behalf. Like many gamers' girlfriends, she'll quite likely end up still not being interested and eventually cash in her chips and take advantage of her boyfriend's hobby to have girls' nights out with her friends (yay dancing in a circle around your purses and shoes!). On the other hand, she may discover a genuine love of roleplaying and its many, many related interests (fantasy books and movies, other kinds of tabletop RPGs, larping, nerds in general). Either way, she'll just slow down a few sessions and trying to get her involved won't cost them a group member like actively snubbing her could. [/QUOTE]
