Do relationships with a large age gap last?
Studies offer mixed results: a moderate age gap (1 to 3 years) seems to promote satisfaction, while larger gaps can present certain challenges. However, researchers emphasize that a couple's success depends more on values, maturity, and shared goals than on age itself.
If you are both committed, open to discussion, and willing to grow together, your relationship can last and flourish. As Labadie summarizes: "A healthy relationship lasts when two people feel connected, grow together, and value their bond."
