At some point they start changing feelings and emotions in their letters, There is a stage that Mary writes about Max as a case of study for the thesis in university perhaps some of the letters she sent made Max Levels of anxiety really high and killed him in the end of the movie

 before they even meet face to face. The directors of the movie were really accurate directing this with this huge decision of making "Mary and Max" film with stop motion techniques. They were able to transmit feelings of both character to the audience.
