I'm guessing she'd act the same way with this information as she has with you in general. If you have a hard time finding your way back into it, and she is waiting for you to say something, all you have to do is ask her for her thoughts on what you wrote, that it's hard for you to bring up so you're handing the ball to her to get things started.

Thanks for your feedback!

She comfortably takes the lead and I comfortably follow. I'm very shy and find it hard to talk (I am getting a lot better). She brings stuff up, and so do I now (sometimes). So ... maybe she'll bring it up.
Thanks for this!
