In The Cure’s hit song Lovesong, lead singer Robert Smith says ”However far away/I will always love you.” I bet that’s not true. Here are the reasons why.
#1: Distance
Distance exists. This moves me onto number two:
#2: Distance Decay
As people get further away from each other there’s less of a chance that there will be any connection between each other over a long period of time, even if they somehow met in the first place.
#3: Demographic Transition Model
The DTM shows the United States being in Stage Four. This means that the country’s growth rate is low because of low births and low deaths. As the country moves into Stage Five, the likelihood of the person in question being alive becomes a question as well. And if they aren’t, that’s pretty far away. Just saying.
