She is very fond of him. He has the loveliest mind she's ever (seen/felt/perceived).

But she's a little bit...cautious of the idea of expressing this fondness physically. A very little bit because the culture she's from has all kinds of hangups about sex, but mostly because...well, what happened to him was Not Okay. And then nothing of the sort since then unless you count Saravasse, which is debatable, and...she sort of wants to be careful.
