Do you guys believe in jinx?

So the thing is I've been talking to someone for almost two years now. Whenever we stop talking for any reason, whether it's for a few days or even a few months, something strange starts happening in the other person's life. They suddenly face unexpected real-life problems, like serious health issues, bad luck, their vehicle breaking down, or other unfortunate incidents.
At first, I thought it was just a coincidence. But how can the same pattern keep repeating every single time?
And here's the strangest part: whenever we start talking again, their life somehow seems to get back on track. Things start going smoothly again, and the problems gradually disappear.
This has happened so many times that I'm genuinely curious now.
What do you guys think? Is it really just a coincidence, or could there be something more to this?
