What do you do when you're together? Do you go out, have a shared hobby or sport, does he inspire you? What is going to keep you together beyond physical pleasure, because that dies without something more to the relationship.
Make a list of all the things you want to do in life, be it have a great career, backpack round Australia, have a family, move to Mongolia or go over Niagra Falls in a barrel. Can you see yourself being the person you want to be and fulfill your full potential with your current partner in your life?
Best of luck.

 Well, i believe that if the 2 of you really care for eachother than thats all that seems to matter. Most people live their lives by following other peoples standards and all that seems to cause is regret and unhappiness. If you love him and he loves you and your certain that he is your soulmate, then introduce him to your friends and family. If they are your true friends, then whatever makes you happy should make them happy as well, despite the age difference or any other difference. Live up to your own standards. Have pride in the fact that you have a loving partner and someone to care for and for them to care back. So answering your question, YES! I do think that if you love eachother enough, ANYTHING is possible! Good luck!
