[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD 16 has been friends with a boy for about a year. Over the past few months they have become very close. This weekend they went ice skating on Saturday (other friends were there too) but when I picked her up it was just the two of them left at the rink.  Then on Sunday they went and played basketball together (just the two of them). They are constantly texting and communicating through Snapchat. All day long it seems. 
My question is, what is the chance that this will remain platonic?  
I worry that if they start dating and then break up, DD will lose one of her best friends, and she doesn’t have many friends.  [/quote]

I met my husband when we were both 15. We were casual friends then got to be closer friends her a period of about six months. Everyone kept saying stuff to us about dating and I rolled my eyes every time and said boys and girls could just be friends.

Well we started dating. And are still together 25 years later.

I don't see how fretting about any of this will help on your end. [/quote]

Similar story here, except we were 16/17. We were best friends for a while, “just friends,” then started dating… that was 26 years ago; still together. [/quote]
