You could be dealing with a shy girl who isn't sure how to make the first move -- she's waiting for the guy to do it. Once he has, she becomes more at ease around him and more herself.

(I'm a lousy mind reader.) You *might* be missing out on some fine people just because you can't understand them. I don't find it uncomfortable -- It's actually more like a quality I endeavor to find. No, I can't read minds either -- but I wouldn't want to -- people wouldn't be as interesting!
