I college I also dated a girl who had never ever seen any "Star Wars" movies.
Watching them with her was like seeing it for the first time. When she asked "Who does Leia end up with, Han or Luke?" I almost cried with joy.
Looking back, that's the only worthwhile thing I got out of that relationship...
That made me laugh out loud :)
My wife has virtually no interest in Star Wars aside from ROTJ (because of the "cute teddy bears") and AOTC (because of Hayden Christensen and "the love story"). Truth be told, she gets a far bigger kick out of watching me obsess over Star Wars than from watching the films themselves. She'll do things like quiz me on random Star Wars trivia, or listen to me quote the movies in time with the actors (bonus points if one of the movies is airing on TV, and I turn off the set in one room, and know exactly what line will be spoken when I turn on the set in another room).
In the end, even though she herself doesn't care much for the films, I think she kind of regards my level of Star Wars geekiness with a certain sense of pride. I think her proudest moment came at a Christmas party a couple years ago when I beat another self-professed Star Wars geek guy at Star Wars trivial pursuit in two turns.
That being said, she still doesn't understand why anyone needs to own six different versions of a film, or how buying a stormtrooper outfit can be considered a good clothing purchase :)

Alright... let's hear your side now. What's it like being the Star Wars girl?
IT'S MY TRILOGY, AND I WANT IT NOW!

Am I the only one? I thought there were a few more lurking around here. ;-)
My experiences here have been very positive- this is really the only place I express my SW fanaticism since I don't go to conventions or anything like that. I don't know that many other SW fans in 'real life'. My nephew is a big fan, and he's actually the one that sort of got me started (he's 8 years younger than me- and his birthday is May 25th!) I used to work with some guys who liked SW as well, and we'd have fun sometimes testing each others SW knowledge with trivia, etc.

Hmm... sounds like you're not trying hard enough. What's wrong, aren't you dating geeks that know how special you are?

My girlfriend had never seen a Star Wars film. She helped edit my 600 page book on the films, but she had never actually seen them! She kinda knew the general story, though, since most of her friends would make references to it throughout her life. I finally showed her Star Wars last summer, which she didn't really like. A few weeks later I showed her Empire Strikes Back, but she liked it even less. I stopped there. :p Not her thing, I suppose. Which is weird, because she loves LOTR, Harry Potter, and those sorts of books, and her favourite film of all time is Wizard of Oz.

As a female Star Wars fan i first was introduced to the Star Wars world in 1997 when my dad took me to see the so called special editions of his beloved movies. I was only seven at the time and the movies had no impact on me at all until i started to get older i realised how much my dad loved these movies , he kept telling me about the time he and i went to see the movies and when i got a little older ive grown to love the movies also .
( on a different note theres an English gentleman here that helps me get certain dvds , thanks G---- your a real help , dont know where i would be without you ! )

I get the sense that HotRod dumped his fifth of scotch on his head, slicked back his hair and straightened his mustache before he sauntered up to the ladies there..
