This girl and I have been friends for a year and a half. She has told me within the past 6 months that she is in love with me and has wanted to be with me for a long time, which is great news because I have always felt the same! However, she recently got out of a complicated relationship that lasted her one year. Right when said relationship ended, her dad kicked her stepmom out of the house and her stepdad cheated on her mom. 

She is currently under the notion that all relationships end, and all relationships end terribly. When I asked her if she was finally ready for a relationship, she told me she didn't know whether the happiness we would have would be worth the potential end. She still feels the same for me and I still feel the same for her, she's just afraid to start a relationship because of her previous bad experiences. I'm certain that she still cares deeply for me, she tells me constantly that she misses me, wants to cuddle, she's always very flirtatious. She even started introducing me to family and close friends, telling them that she likes me and so forth. 

I cannot stop thinking about her. I miss her constantly and want nothing other than to be in a relationship with her. How can I help her find her way out of her comfort zone?
