first of all girls don’t be too afraid to offend the guy, we are usually more thick skinned, and rather get a conversation started than be in a akward state of quiet.
second of all I noticed many guys and girls run quickly into more deep and emotional topics quickly. I heard from a rebbi that you should learn first how to enjoy eachothers company somewhat before “spilling the beans”. many guys rush to that because of the conversations they have in yeshiva and how easy it is to bring it up.
