crazyme6 answered Friday February 22 2008, 2:18 am: honestly, it takes her strength inside to break down the walls and open up to you. all you can do is listen and let her know how much you love & care about her and even try being REALLY open with her to encourage her, once she gains your complete trust i bet she will open it. it takes alot for some people to open up, but in time if they feel comfortable with themselves and others, it can always happen.

Can't rush it, because that's on her.
Don't push it, or she will be less apt to say anything.
