No. Matching or different life path numbers do not determine whether a relationship works. Comparing them may prompt questions, but it is not a reliable compatibility test.
Background & context
Discuss your needs, boundaries, and agreements. A supposedly difficult number combination is not a reason to devalue a relationship.

Numerology and relationships: understanding differencesTurn differences into agreements
Instead of asking whether numbers match, discuss an everyday issue. How much time would you like together? How do you ask for space? Who takes responsibility for which task? A useful agreement is clear, voluntary, and practical enough to revisit. A number cannot replace that discussion.
Avoid ranking relationships
This guide does not rank number pairs as good or bad. No interpretation excuses controlling behavior or disregard for boundaries. To make a change, describe the behavior you observe and the next step you want. You decide what your relationship needs.
