Just one thought Nell

Does she want to connect to others yet? When I was her age I was painfully shy. I knew about 3 people at school (and 2 of them were the fat lads in the class). I just didn't get on with people at that age. Yet I was quite happy in my own little world. (yes you lot sniggering at the back there, I know you think I'm still in my own little world!)

I became the shy retiring bloke I am now when I went to Uni. I wouldn't push her too hard or it will become difficult for both of you and you may lose those qualities you like in her. We all are different, perhaps she just needs a bit longer or a particular event in her life to bring her out of her shell.
