Chig agony auntIt depends on the reason for her distance. You haven't given much information on your relationship with her, and whether you have had any problems.

How well do you know her? Take the time to talk to her gently and without any anger about what the problem is.

You are fairly young, and its not unusual to date and find out that the person is not the one for you long-term. If you were previously very close however, and seemed in love and told each other this, then there must be an underlying reason.

Talk ... its the best way, and make sure to keep any anger and strong emotions out of it :)

Hi...you mentioned that her mom and her son went on a vacation together..could it possibly be that you are mistaking her distance for a little bit of the blues because her family is not near her? Is she close to her family? Maybe their leave has made her feel a bit homesick for them and that translates into her withdrawing a little from you? Perhaps you could try to reach out and let her know how you feel?
