Relationship expert talk about age differences between couples

Speaking exclusively to Briefly News, relationship expert Paula Quinsee said that although there may be challenges in relationships with huge age gaps, some relationships thrive. She said:

"Despite the age difference, if the couple's values, respect, and emotional intelligence levels align, then age is just a number. There are many examples of couples in age-gap relationships that are thriving due to their mutual understanding; they are aligned and have clear communication between them."
