( As much as she'd like to make more progress and get to him, she is satisfied with how thing are now. Has to be, if she doesn't want to risk pushing him away out of her reach entirely.
And, it goes without saying that she doesn't think to force him to open up. To order him, or treat him in anyway like the dog he claims to be. He is a person to her; she will convince him of that. One day. )
I would not call this an impasse because I think we both understand each other a little better now. For the better.
Please. I pray that you do. ( Because then he'd be telling her how he felt. It's a win-win, really. )
[And again, he isn't entirely sure how to respond to that. What to make of it. Feels vaguely uncomfortable for reasons he can't put into words. She's just so different to anyone he's ever known and as such is at something of a loss, feels both drawn in and repelled.
And so again, he settles for words that convey very little of what he actually feels.]

Well. I think I've said what I wanted to say.
