She lived alone and had no one other friends besides the BAU team since her college friends all chose different paths. Struggling with an abusive relationship, it leads to a terrible tragedy that leaves Vanessa conflicted on everything. But that's only the beginning to multiple misfortunes. Her and Spencer go through many on and off feelings. They can't seem to get anything right, partially due to how awkward they both are.

Maybe they just never get the chance, thinking about the feelings that they hide.
