Omar KhayyámI am trying to convince my girlfriend to watch Star Wars.
SacredHeartAttackI introduced my wife to Start Wars a few years back. She went from "i'm not that interested" to 30 minutes into A New Hope saying "ok, I get why you love this so much" to crying during every season of Rebels which she sought out and watched by herself.
Just convince her to watch one movie together with you. The rest will happen on it's own.
hahaha this is amazing and giving me.. dare I say... a new hope!! OK. I am going to try. :)
ScrubblesIf this is sarcastic, absolutely lol
If this is legit and no sarcasm, I never recommend breaking up online. We don't have enough info. However it's important to share interest. She should want to experience things you are into and vice versa. If she doesn't want to see star wars but takes an interest in other things you are passionate about, that's fair. If she doesn't want to step out of her comfort zone at all.... Well that's a problem.
I was being sarcastic... mostly. I really love this answer though, and these are wise words to live by. I could cut her some slack I think. Maybe I can use it as a "get out of jail free card" when there is something I really don't want to do. May the Schwartz be with you!!
Never underestimate the power of the schwartz
Personally I don't understand why she wouldn't want to watch Star Wars with you. I have seen some people say "I haven't watched star wars" and hold it as a pride thing, like they're better than others because they don't "partake" in something as popular as star wars. (Those people are.... not fun to hang out with btw, and not because they don't watch star wars. It's because they're tools.)
Maybe she truly doesn't like action movies? Have met some people like that too, and while I'd say action is second in the movie, eh maybe?
But maybe she does other things with you that you have shown her. Cars, travel, puzzles, idk. But if she only wants to do things she wants to do, that's a red flag for sure.
HavebananawilltravelMake her write an essay into the socioeconomic impact of Jawas. If she isn't a fan by then, then you know what needs to happen.
I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the rancor to do it.
Show her pictures of Han Solo, lots of pictures of Han Solo.
_finger_Some people just don’t have any interest in it, it’s okay. You can’t force her to do anything and if it’s not something she decides she wants to do then she straight up won’t enjoy it.
I have however showed it to people who have never seen it and got great enjoyment watching their preconceived notions melt away right before my eyes, and by the trench run they’re on the edge of their seat. Then it’s really fun to answer their question at the end because I’m known as the “expert” lol
This is the way.
