[quote=Anonymous]What if you put the ball more in her court? Make a general "ask" but let her set the parameters. I.e. My friends John and Joan are coming to town and I want us to all go out - what do you think would be fun? OR I'd really like to do something for Halloween. Would you prefer a party or perhaps just going out with a few friends? I think it is not unreasonable for you to insist that she socializes with you from time to time, but everyone is going to be a lot happier if she can select situations in which she is more comfortable. Also, do you or she have family in the area? She may be more comfortable/interested in getting out and about with folks she already knows and loves. Finally, you are couching a lot of this as if she is deliberately deciding not to talk, to be a wallflower. I would bet dollars to donuts that she is shy and/or has social anxiety so she is not just "choosing" to be reserved.[/quote]
