How to get your girlfriend to play chess?

Are those three asterisks some sort of rating system for performance and effort in bed?
"Sorry babe, you won't play chess with me, so I'm only giving you a one-star night--maybe two, if you don't get mad if I accidentally say Magnus Carlsen's name instead of yours."

So I was trying to teach her some basic chess tactics and opening moves, and I overwhelmed her and I made her cry.
Um, sometimes the obvious answer is so obvious, that we can't see it.

I would imagine you'd have to marry a woman that plays chess. Perhaps a WGM or WCM or something. Chess is for some, not for others. It has properties which appeal to the ego 80% of the time and as such it attracts a particular type. That's not an absolute of course. The point is that you can't force someone to play and like chess if it's not for them.
You should be alarmed that she started crying in that context. Sounds as if there's bigger issues than chess.

dpnorman this girl you have a crush on asked you to teach her chess?So...nice girl takes interest in something you like...wants you to teach her...maybe so she can understand why you like it so much...? Maybe if you ask if she would like to have coffee you might find that she also has a crush on you!
here's hoping :/

I did teach her chess, along with a friend of hers. But meh, life went on and not much happened.
'Along with a friend of hers' #chesspimpnorman

'here's hoping' #gottaasktogetananswer. Think of it as a risky piece sacrifice with an unclear outcome.

Teach a gf how to play chess ? If your gf tolerates your chess, DON't Press your luck. Chess usually competes with a gf. And if she marries you, take up gardening. Your marriage will be much happier.

You can't say hi to a female these days without it being considered harassment. You should only talk to them when something is wrong.
Nope. If something's wrong then you must be using that to take advantage of her. It's a fact. Didn't you know?

To answer OP, you don't *make * your girl play chess. It has to be achieved through mutual understanding and you're not allowed to force it upon her without consent. Remember that a no is a no, but a yes is sometimes not a yes. Be careful, and don't be a chessist like OP and make your girl cry.

Hmm... Some very suspicious wording... Stay on topic BP! You have a dirty mind.
Anyway, Macer is only person who has answered the OP correctly. It's simple. Withhold sex.
Aw I got all excited there for nothing. I should've known... Don'll hit on anything. Just ask TRex...
