Olivia told Giles that the experience and revelation on the supernatural being real was maybe too scary to her

Olivia was then contacted and invited by a resurrected Giles to San Francisco, where she stayed at Hotel. At the time, she was based on Los Angeles and in liaison with the San Francisco Police Department, into the supernatural crimes unit division due of her prior experience with the occult. However, in her encounter with Giles, Olivia was disenchanted to see him looking like a child. Although Giles assured her he was the same person she remembered, and insisted on continuing their relationship, Olivia refused, arguing he his insistence itself was an indication that he was not the same and the age difference was still not ethical. Olivia was supportive of him and still was his friend, but the event left Giles frustrated with his condition.
