Changing Ties

At one time, and for a long time, my friend and I were really close. I knew everything about her, and she knew everything about me. Now, not so much. I got a message from her today about hanging out tomorrow (we made dinner plans a few days ago) and in it she mentioned something about me going to Mexico for New Years. Now I have hung out with this girl a number of times since my trip got canceled. Either I have never bothered to mention it (meaning we haven't talked about me), or she just wasn't listening. I could see it going either way. It just struck me how little she knows about me now. She has no knowledge or understanding of something that is so significant in my life (uncle's cancer, which in turn leads to cancellation of Mexico trip). I'm kind of sad about what our relationship has become.

I know relationships change all the time, but lately mine don't seem to be changing for the better. I have become quite distant from the people I had strong ties to at the beginning of the year.
