Alexandra only wanted to teach. Spencer only wanted to be in the FBI. Alexandra went into the FBI. So did Spencer. But they met in 2000 just before she turned 20. They both forgot they had met years before. They didn't care. They keep the secret of their relationship. They keep it until it becomes to much. To much for one to control.

She was offered a spot at the BAU after her father passed away when she was 18, she, however, did not take it.

Spencer Reid is a genius with an IQ of 187 and can read 20,000 words per minute with an eidetic memory. He is the second youngest member of the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), has three BAs and three PhDs (in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Engineering), and specializes in statistics and geographic profiling.
