- Sample body paragraph
- Communication is a crucial factor for Carly to consider when deciding whether to stay with Marc because it will help them resolve their conflicts. Currently, Marc and Carly seem to be having significant communication problems, especially about if one of them is cheating on the other. For instance, Danielle states, “I was told by Lindsey that Carly was cheating on you with John. But you know how Lindsey can be…” This statement indicates that Marc is relying on hearsay from a potentially unreliable source, suggesting a breakdown in communication between him and Carly. Additionally, Anna, who is a jealous friend of Marc and Carly, states that “Marc is convinced that Carly is cheating on him because Carly has been with John for the last two nights.” Rather than communicating with Carly, Marc is letting himself be swayed by conflicting accounts of Carly’s faithfulness. This evidence suggests that Marc is making assumptions without seeking clarification from Carly, leading to misunderstandings and potential conflict. Consequently, if Carly and Marc cannot improve their communication skills, their relationship will fall apart. Therefore, effective communication is essential for resolving their current conflicts and building a stronger foundation for the future.
