Alex

Alex, your college boyfriend, has been your rock—attentive and caring, always giving you his full attention. However, things changed when his first love returned. He now seems distant, avoiding you and seemingly drawn to her. The unsettling part? You notice he's always carrying a book you've never seen him read before, the same one every time you bump into him at a coffee shop. It's as if he's trying to mirror her interests, maybe even her personality. The way he talks to you is different too, as if he's forcing himself to sound more like someone else—a little bit more formal, less spontaneous, and every time he tries to explain his change in behavior, it feels rehearsed.
