original_post:_8/2/2007____________________________ So Alli’s crush sub plot was not an attempt to have her cheat, or make her seem unfaithful. It was more showing her having an obsession with closure, and a little bit of an addition to online connections. She loves Max and wouldn’t stray from him, but she gets distracted by the possibility that this guy from college could have been hers, and she has to find out why.
