My daughter is 15 and has had a boyfriend the same age for almost 6 months now. They spend a lot of time together and seem to get on very well but do not seem to have a physical relationship beyond the odd hug when they part. While I think many parents are worried that their teenagers are getting up to too much I am concerned that this isn't normal! She seems to think she is too young for anything more but surely at this age you would expect them to want to at least kiss each other? I can't quite put my finger on why I am worried but I think that it is probably that I think she may get hurt. It seems to me that they are friends only and anyday now he will meet someone that he actually fancies and leave her stranded whilst she thinks she is in a "serious" relationship.
Is it possible that after all this time a physical relationship may grow or can I assume that that is it? I certainly don't want them to be sleeping together but just experiencing what I consider to be normal for their age!!
