That's what I'm wondering. Could you have taken it wrong...communication is the key. Ask her.

Yeah...seems a little weird. Maybe she's worried she'll fall apart seeing the change in you if you were so tight...she's bound to be upset and thinks she won't cry or do something that might upset you in front of her brother? If you were tight, you should be able to bring this up with her. Are you afraid of an awkward conversation too maybe? Just thoughts.

I'm sorry your friend is not handling this well, but if she's important to you...you might give her some time to get a grip. She might be overwhelmed about your situation now and be reacting poorly. I'm sorry that your life is changing so much now that you have to deal with these things too. You are obviously a strong and well adjusted woman...you will do what's right for you in the end...but don't jump to the conclusion that she's changed her feelings, just because she doesn't know how to act right now. I bet that after spending some time together...all will be like it was before.
