I think it means serious.

In this context heavy means: intense, serious or emotionally deep. Why the word heavy? metaphorically, something intense, serious or emotionally complex can be a burden. To have a deep relationship, other parts of her life would have to change and she's not prepared for that, yet. Also: the word stage shouldn't be repeated.
