I've looked through ALC and Jisho but I couldn't find a good expression to
convey that someone feels "distant" especially in a romantic setting.

The best word that I found in Jisho/ALC was
[よそよそしい](https://jisho.org/search/%E3%82%88%E3%81%9D%E3%82%88%E3%81%9D%E3%81%97%E3%81%84).
Does this work for the nuance of a romantic partner who doesn't seem to be
him/herself?

How to say someone "feels distant"
"よそよそしい"is a common word! We use it like... 「彼女が大好きなので、気を引くためにわざとよそよそしい態度をした」
「友だちが急によそよそしくなった。嫌われたのかな？」
