It's never too late to find a good relationship. Here's proof.

About this episode

Have you ever stayed in a relationship, because you felt like it would be too hard to find another partner? This episode is for you.

Let this be a lesson for us all. Divorce is on the decline except for one key demographic: people over 50. So, in a world where many of us say it's harder to find friends or new relationships later in life, why are people 50 and up more likely to break up?

Brittany is joined by Texas Tech University professor Dana Weiser and University of British Columbia professor Rosie Shrout. Together they come out the other side with a message for all of us: it's never too late to write a new love story.
