She stopped asking questions: what changed and how to respond

She got busy or distracted. That doesn't mean she's gone. She met someone else or is hedging bets, which is why the curiosity dropped. Or she's waiting for you to demonstrate you're worth the effort.

The hard part is that you can't tell which one from the text alone. What matters is that asking more about her won't fix it. If she's lost interest, more questions from you just speed up the fade. If she's testing you, she needs you to show confidence, not desperation. Either way, a good reply shifts the dynamic back to you being the interesting one, not the one being interrogated.

When she stops asking, your job is to become interesting again without trying. Don't volunteer long stories or details about yourself hoping she'll ask follow-ups. Instead, mention something real you're doing that's worth talking about, then let her decide if she wants in.

The second move is to ask her one real question, but a different kind. Not "tell me about yourself" but something that requires a specific answer. Something that hints you were actually listening before. This shows you weren't just waiting for her to ask you things. You were paying attention.

If she doesn't reply within 48 hours, she's either busy or has moved on. Don't send a follow-up. Wait the full three days.

If she replies at all after that, treat it like a soft restart. Don't reference the gap or act relieved. Just pick up like you're both still in. If three days pass and nothing comes back, send one final message that's low pressure and easy to reply to. After that, you have your answer. The worst thing you can do is keep messaging into silence, which turns a fade into a formal rejection.
