Default Is it possible to get my non-gamer girlfriend into EQ?

Hey everybody. Well I finally convinced my non-gamer girlfriend to give EQ a try, and I really hope she likes it. The only other game she has ever really played was Skyrim, and she says she likes how pretty it was and that you could make potions.

I'm pretty stoked that I got her to try EQ but i'm worried that she will give up once things get a little rough. Right now I pretty much have to sit with her when we play and tell her what to do, and she seemed to like it so far. She made a human monk which seems like a good first class to me.

I was really interested in seeing if anyone has been in a similar situation or if there is some general advice out there for making her experience more enjoyable. I don't really have much in the way of gearing her, and I was fearing that being so weak and vulnerable at first would deter her, but she seemed ok with beating on bats and skeles for awhile [You must be logged in to view images.

Let me know what I can do to make sure she keeps playing! Once our ip exemption goes through we can play together. What class should I make with her? I know shaman is an obvious choice but my main is already a shaman so id rather play something else while we get to his level.

Thanks!
