Hi @Rose_Frog
Thank you for reaching out! I am sorry to hear you are feeling worried about your friend. You must be feeling rejected if there is no obvious reason for the distance, it is not a good feeling. You are an amazing friend for considering their perspective and current state of wellbeing as to why the distance has been made.
It is quite common for a friend who is struggling to distance themselves as they may feel like a burden. This is all the more reason for you to reach out and check on them (being mindful of your own mental health first!). A good starting point is to send a message saying hello and subtly asking how they are, whilst trying to initiate closeness. An example could be: "Hey! I miss you, how have you been?" Another way of initiating communication could be sending a meme which reminds you of your friend and seeing whether or not they are receptive to it.
Let me know if you try the above suggestions and if your friend responds! If anything else happens, please feel free to reach out again. Looking forward to hearing from you 😊
