When longtime friendships shift after major life changes

My best friend of twenty years and I both went through divorces at the same time and we've been each other's lifeline but now she's dating someone and pulling back and I don't know if this is healthy boundaries or if I'm losing her. We've never talked about what we actually need from each other right now.
