I agree with these as well. She should be asking you what you need to grieve and respecting that.
Wild guess here, but I think she feels as if you're shutting her out. Perhaps she has always opened up to other people to help with her grieving process, and she doesn't understand that you simply have a different process, that not everyone wants to open up when they're sad.
