It depends on when she is silent, how she looks when she is silent and how long you've known her.
If you're recently met her and gone on only 2-3 dates with her, she could still be a little shy and have trouble warming up to you. Do you find that once in a while, a certain topic will make her warm up and talk a lot but then, later, she is quiet again? This probably means that she needs time to warm up and be comfterble.
If she looks at her nails and at the wall and everywhere but you when she is with you and you are trying to talk to her, that could be a sign of disintrest. Does she occasionally snap back? Do you catch her rolling her eyes when you say something and then look up a few seconds later? If so, maybe you should back off.
If you've known her for a while, she may just feel comfterble being around you and not talking. Does she smile at you and look content...but attentive when you talk? Do her actions show affection?
...If she's scared, it's more likely that she would just be quiet when you bring up certain (sensitive) subjects. She might also start to look tense when you bring them up or when you try to get too close to her.
