Loaning Money

First off, Im a complete idiot...but thats not the point.

I loaned money to a girl whom I had met while playing cards..at this point it was a couple hundred bucks.

She then went home as she lives out of state.

During this time we spoke every day (multiple times most days)

She then returned to visit again, and had yet to pay me back again it was only a couple hundred bucks...but during the course of this new stint she ends up running the total up to A COUPLE OF THOUSAND DOLLARS plus a hotel bill of A COUPLE THOUSAND DOLLARS.

I wasn't concerned because I verified through numerous people she knows that she is fairly well off, almost to the point this money may be insignificant to her.

The problem is that I'm having much difficulty at this point to get the money returned to me. We no longer talk as often either which also has a bearing on this...I would be more than happy to get my money and move on (I've been blown off before) but can't due to my financial investment here.

My questiong is what is the best way of getting the money back....I was gonna go with the waiting outside of her house in the creepy I flew cross country to get my money back without telling you kinda way.
