alex freaked out about the "reality" of marriage (deciding it meant kids, suburbs, housewife life were imminent) and rather than bringing it up at any point in the engagement and hurting his feelings, she disappeared close to the wedding and upset a lot of people. she doesn't necessarily think everything through! it's great! but after some time, wanted to repair the friendship which is awkward until they find a platonic groove again. if THAT sounds like it would work, please sign me up and i can get you a custom to figure out the rest!
