My contact is set as my boyfriends (alien.top)

As the title says my contact in my phone is set as my boyfriends. When I go to contact list and press on “my card” it just shows my boyfriends information. His phone number and contact photo I have set for him. If I change the phone number and contact photo it’ll change his information for me and I won’t be able to call or text him. Any time an app asks for my name or phone number it’ll automatically suggest his information.

Now with this recent update, it gave me the option to set my name and contact photo associated with my phone number. After I set my information it just changed my boyfriend’s contact information. So I changed his info back and now people will see my name as his and a contact picture as him.

I’ve dealt with this for as long as I can remember and I have no idea how to fix it. Anyone know how?

Settings > Contacts > My Info and switch it to yours

Do you and your boyfriend have the same Apple ID logged into both devices?

I think maybe you accidentally made his card your card?? try going to contacts and then making a new contact card but with your info on it like your number and stuff and put a picture on it and everything and save it and then go to settings and contacts and go to my info and select the contact you made for yourself through there (hope it fixes!)
