<human>: My mom and I were always very close, but when my dad got sick and died about five years ago we became even closer. Our relationship changed from a parent/child relationship to more of an equal relationship. 

My dad's illness was really tough and my mom didn't try to hide anything from me. I saw her at her worst and it mean that in some ways she couldn't be a traditional mother figure any more. For example, I wouldn't go to her if I was feeling upset because I wouldn't want to stress or upset her more. 

Since then our relationship has continued along that track. She began dating and would tell me about her dating problems. She started smoking pot occasionally and asked me to get it for her. It's hard for me to tell if this is just the way parent/child relationships develop, or if ours is different.

I have been in a serious relationship for about three years now with someone I plan to spend the rest of my life with. We moved back to my home state (she is not from here) about a year ago and so have been seeing my mom more often. 

A couple of weeks ago I was spending time with my mom one-on-one -- which is not too common these days -- and she told me she feels like she's "lost me." That we are no longer close and I'm not her baby boy anymore. She said she never sees me alone (which is true) and although she knows that's the way things go, it really upset her. 

She's right that we've grown apart, but I am having trouble figuring out how to renew our relationship. I don't necessarily want to hear about the minutia of her dating life and relationship issues, but that's such a big part of her life now. I want to find a new form for our relationship that will acknowledge things have changed but still rekindle some closeness.

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Mom says she's "lost me"; I don't feel like her "baby boy" anymore. How do I create a new form for our relationship?
