Sorry, but how do I initiate someone into fantasy/rpgs/etc?

And then into the fantasy or SF genres, when the time is right.

That's what I'd do. If the ultimate goal is to introduce her to FRPGs, introduce her to RPGs first, using a genre she enjoys. Try to choose a game that appeals to what she likes about games. If she's not likely to dive into the mechanics, use a mechanics-light one or use pregens and keep the mechanics on your side of the GM screen, at least at first.

Above all, keep it fun for *her*. Ignore what you want or need from a role-playing session and just provide what she would find fun. It'll take work, but if you really want this, this is your best chance.

Good luck!
