dear Downlow, hello and welcome aboard.
What happens to someone suffering from any type of depression is that they want push their b/friend or g/friend away and this is for a couple of reasons, firstly they don't want their partner or whatever involved in what is concerning them, they feel alone, and secondly they believe that you would be much better with someone else, but that's not the answer, and I don't believe will be for a certain amount of time, depending on how they are coping.
You have to realise that they want to suffer in silence, all by themselves, and don't understand that there are people out there who want to help them, and as Silverorchid has said it;s never a good idea to keep asking them question after question, that is why do they feel this way, because they will only tell you in their own time, not before and not after, but when they are ready to talk.
You can say that you love her or text her, but not every minute of everyday because it then becomes monotonous and eventually it doesn't register any more, that is it means nothing to them, but it's a lonely life being in depression even though you might have people who love you, so please let us know how she is going, because there will be many questions that come to your mind and don't have any answers, so please ask us. Geoff.
