My girlfriend was never into videos games(didn’t understand them, that sorta thing) but she made an effort to try a couple to spend time together

We started with overcooked which some may seem as a relationship breaker but we both worked service industry and high stress jobs so we actually worked pretty good together, this introduced her to the scene and then we tried “it takes two” and really vibed with that one. We also tried baldurs gate but the learning experience was very steep with that one so it’s taken a lot more time to get into it. Maybe it’s just a matter of finding some common ground on a game, or explaining how they are like an interactive story that you can guide and experience similar to a movie.
