Hm. Maybe she can try and encourage him by talking about something similar?
"...I didn't think I should date anybody for a while. 'Cause even though there's lots of people here who love more than one person, no one else loves every person, or just about. It's kinda like that, anyway. More like... there's no line for me where other people have a line where this person's just a friend and this person isn't? Or there usually isn't, I mean if someone doesn't want me then they don't, and I obviously don't wanna date my big sister or someone who's, like, 50 or something.
But anyway, because I don't want someone to think I care any less about someone I'm not with than someone I am, and also the people I told about this were all 'look we love and support you but you can't actually date the whole city, like, realistically,' I kinda felt like maybe I shouldn't be with-with anybody. But then it turned out maybe I could anyway? Some people said so."
She offers that sunny smile again, bolstered by bodily glowing even more than usual.
"So if you're afraid, don't worry! I bet you'll be able to say what you want, too!"
