I would personally look at this as her sharing her problems with you... She feels she can be vulnerable in that way with you...... Which is good....
I would just listen and pay careful attention to what she is saying...... If you feel like there is any ambiguity, please just ask her to clarify what she is saying...... Your misinterpretation could build a wall between the two of you....
Remember, communication is vital!
I wish you and your new passionate gal all the best!
Take Care,

"Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years. That is what makes a marriage last --more than passion or even sex!" - Simone Signoret
