If it wasn't for the fact that we don't have anyone to watch our 3 year old, she would go with me (assuming my local Gamestop even does a midnight release). But she does raise an interesting point though.
How many of you gamers would agree to go see Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 if your girlfriend/wife asked you to? Something to think about next time you wanna rag on your significant other for not wanting to join you in your geeky hobby.
I'll gladly go and see whatever romantic movie my girlfriend wants to see. I actually enjoy them more often that not, though she doesn't need to know that, lol. Thankfully, she's not a Twilight fan, so I never had to encounter that specific problem which you described. But she has made me go see other cheesy romantic movies.
Plus, I always figured that if I put in my due time at those points, whenever there's a new game on the horizon that I plan on spending the majority of my free time on, she won't be put off by me neglecting her for a few days, lol. Though we've been going out for a little over 2 years now, so we know each other pretty much inside out and, as she has put it, "come to terms with our various hobbies." Haha.
