As others have said already, it really depends on the relationship. Some people are willing to give up at the first sign of trouble, and others would rather put in the effort to make things work.
No relationship is completely problem-free. Some couples are just better at working through those problems.

I didn't vote. It all depends on how much the partners are willing to put into the relationship after the "chemical" phase has subsided.

I do think the relationship dynamic starts to change at the 2-3 year mark. It's more stable and less exciting.
