She may really not be ready. But...

For me it's always been more honest to say, there is no right time. When you meet someone, things click together. Maybe not straight away, sometimes that can be gradual.

Well look at me, last time I got involved with someone, I was telling them I wasn't ready...then they kissed me and I forgot all about being ready.

It may just be that you don't make things click, though she may enjoy your company. Or...what she's been through may have been so painful that she really has some issues to deal with first. Since you met her in the middle of this, I'd say it's unlikely you will be her "lover" any time soon...perhaps you're in the "friend zone"?

However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.


Fernando Pessoa, 1918
