Friend gone cold: confront or ignore and move on?

I have a friend who I really like. We have argued in the past (parenting stuff and my dd was horrid to hers) but we were ok. We sorted it. She has gone cold though. Our dds don't see each other any more as different schools etc so it can't be that.
I went to a local event today and at the same event last year she came up and chatted whereas this year she walked off and when we bumped into each other later conversation was very stilted. Do I confront or just let it wash over me and give her space. We have both been through hard times of late.

I would do the latter personally.

Text if you like her & say she didn't seem herself, hope she's ok & it's not something you've done.

You'll know for sure what to do depending on how she responds...

I'm often in my own world and sometimes dont realise i have walked passed someone this may be the case or just lots of stuff going on? I agree with person above asking her whats up.

She did see me and said hi but walked off very quickly/ didn't seem hpy to see me/ weird atmosphere etc.

I also agree with evelynj
If you really like her and want to stay friends it's worth a go.

Personally I would ignore her right back. She sounds like hard work.

Send one friendly text and if she doesn't answer or doesn’t seem that interested, leave it. No point in flogging a dead horse.
