Topic: Long Distance Relationship; The Pros and Cons

INTRODUCTION:
Attention Getter: Long distance is hard, but you chose it, so there's no whining. It's
better than the alternative, which is unthinkable. It has to be worth it. You have to be
with someone who makes it worth it. You both have to be all-in, or it's not going to work.

Purpose: To inform my audience about the Pros and Cons of Long Distance
Relationships

Importance to audience: If you're considering entering into a long distance


relationship, or if you're wondering why yours didn't work out, this are list of pros and
cons for any LDR to help the audience assess whether to go the distance, or to figure
out why absence didn't necessarily make the heart grow fonder.

Thesis Statement: Long distance relationship is a romantic relationship between two


people who live far apart.

Preview: I will discuss what long distance relationship is and its pros and cons.

BODY:

I. First Main Point: Pros of long distance relationships


A. Subpoint: The passion is more manageable.

1. You are also less likely to confuse lust with love.


B. Subpoint: You really get to know someone at a deep, meaningful level and
the emotional bonding is strong.
1. Many couples in a common relationship setting are merely activity
partners during the courting stage.
Example:
Dine, wine, party, movies, and cuddle on the couch
C. Subpoint: You learn to appreciate the precious moments you spend together
and not take things for granted the person you love and your relationship.
D. Subpoint: You learn to be self-content but also, at the same time, receive
emotional support from the one you love and care.
E. Subpoint: You build a strong trust foundation for the relationship, which is
crucial in any relationship.

II. Second Main Point: Cons of long distance relationships


A. Subpoint: Loneliness/emptiness.
B. Subpoint: Emotionally stressful.
C. Subpoint: No physical intimacy.
D. Subpoint: Misunderstandings and conflicts are often very challenging when
they do happen.
E. Subpoint: You wont be able to be there for each other during unpredictable
events or crises, no matter how much you want to or wish to.
F. Subpoint: Financial burden.

CONCLUSION:
In most cases, when a long distance relationship breaks down or ends in failure, the
couple puts the blame on the distance. However, I believe that the distance merely
intensifies the core problem of the relationship it itself is not the problem.

It (the distance) allows you to see the true problem of your relationship clearly and
forces you to face it for better, or for worse.
