2. Example
1. Another factor Carly should consider is Marc’s loyalty to her because if a guy is not loyal in a relationship then it could be a sign that he does not take the relationship seriously. Marc’s actions on Friday night should make Carly question his loyalty and make her reevaluate his commitment to her. For example, Marc writes in his schedule that he is going with Anna to a bonfire at Matt’s that will last until 1 A.M. while Carly is away at a basketball game.  Both the fact that he is staying out late and going with Anna suggests that something more may be going on between him and Anna. While at the bonfire Marc takes a picture with Anna on his back, which she posts to Instagram with the tag “#lovehim” and the comment “he’s always got my back.” Marc’s willingness to take this picture with Anna, knowing that he is in a relationship with Carly and that Anna likes him, shows he is not as loyal to Carly as she thought. This evidence demonstrates that Marc is not being honest about the kind of relationship he has with Anna and that he is willing to flirt with other girls while Carly is busy with her sport. Consequently if Marc is willing to be flirtatious while Anna is away, Carly should ask herself how committed he is to their relationship, especially because Carly does not flirt with other guys when Marc is not around.Therefore, due to fact that Marc is not as serious about the relationship, she should question if she can continue in a relationship that  lacks the solid foundation of loyalty to the other person.
