I'll go out on a limb here and say she needs a bit of a challenge to break out of her shell.
When the topic shifts to something more neutral, just shoot:
"I think it's a bit of a challenge dealing with super shy people.
Not because they are shy, but because they tend to spend too much time inside their own heads, which can look like disinterest.
What I mean is they are constantly missing out on the beauty of being present, and the amazing opportunities right in front of themselves!
Then they come home and begin to think about what they just have missed...(pause)...and kick themselves on the butt because of it.
I used to be like that in the past....and it hurted more than protected.
Because being that way is just a form of protection..thing is, too much protection can also mean avoiding the really good stuff, don't you think?"
