Bail had told Leia something of the Jedi, but it was clear to Obi-Wan that she didn’t fully grasp what that meant, under the Empire, when she asked him so bluntly where anyone could hear, when she asked him to put his trust in strangers.

There was a time when he had that ability, but it had died with the children in the Temple even though it had not been a stranger who... Obi-Wan was an outlaw now, surviving only by constantly looking over his shoulder, and he could not share Leia’s naive trust.

(But perhaps trust could be relearned.)

Poor Obi-Wan, he really was in a dark place at times in that series.
