-We know Baelfire spent upwards of 200 years in Neverland.

-We know Rumple is upwards of 200 years old and he, technically speaking (He's the Dark one so he doesn't age but for all intensive purposes), aged during the long period of time (around 200 years) between he lost his son and when the Curse was enacted. We know lots and lots of time passed then.

-We also know Hook is from Rumple's time, and yet he's still around because he was also in Neverland.

-And finally, we know that when Hook and Bae left Neverland, the time they went to wasn't the time they left from. Years and years and years (again, 200ish) had passed in the EF/SB/LWM since they had entered Neverland when they returned.

If time didn't pass in Neverland, then the lifetimes spent there by Bae and Hook would've been no time at all in the EF/LWM, not 200 years. Which means that just like EF time and SB/LWM time run side to side, Neverland is snuggled right up next to them, too.

It's not that time doesn't pass in Neverland, it's that people don't age. If time didn't pass, then again, Hook and Bae would've ended up right where they had left. And they didn't.

So yeah.
