Help, my friend don't like that dough doe

Hey everyone, 

I'm new to this site, so first off I'd like to say hi to all of my fellow amateur artisans and bread enthusiasts! In fact, that's just where my problem lies - my friend is the polar opposite.

Whether it's sandwiches, or even toast, my friend does not accept bread whatsoever; because that glutenous goodness is such a huge part of my life, it's becoming a problem and I need to try and get her to see the light of the loaf. Do I start her off with Ciabatta? Sourdough? Rye?

Unfortunately, she suffers from some mental issues and learning difficulties, so introducing new things can be problematic. 

I'd love to hear from you all on tips to introduce such a good food into someone's life.

There's a reason she doesn't want to eat bread and so be it.  Don't make it an issue and it won't be one.  Eat bread yourself but don't force her to.  Sorry, she doesn't have a problem with it, you do.
