Even though she projects a tough persona she will be afraid of becoming vulnerable and allowing someone new into her life. Unless you really do know her story you don’t know what her past has been like (everyone has one).
She may have been hurt in the past or she may be cautious about being in love or even loved at all. Talk with her, and go at her pace.
