Do you think its a good or bad idea for old friends to become new lovers?
I don't know if I really want our life-long friendship to be ended if we ever dated and broke up.

When friends date and it does not work out. A huge part of their ability to remain friends is all on how it ends.
If it ends bad because somebody cheated it is a death blow. The other important part is if it ends and it not a mutual decision. The one person that still has feelings for the other will resent the person that dumped them or they will keep pushing the relationship. Which drives the other person away.
I just think that if friends date and things are not working out they need to be very careful on how they end things. That will be the moment you know if the friendship will be able to survive.

I became lovers with a friend and it was great b/c we already knew each other and were so comfortable around each other. However, when it ended, we did not talk for several months b/c it was too uncomfortable. After time went by, we were able to be friends again, like nothing ever happened. I think if the friendship is strong enough and you really care for each other you won't want to lose each other in your lives--even if it remains as just a friendship. You will know in your gut what feels right. Good luck!

It kind of depends on whether you think it's worth risking your friendship if something bad happens to your new romantic relationship. Most friendships don't make it through that. But then again, sometimes they do. My best friend dated my brother and they broke up after 1 1/2 years, but they were friends again with 2 or 3 months. So all in all, are you willing to take the risk?

sometimes an old friend can be a true love. its on a deeper level since the frienship was already there. you really respect and trust eachother. if you dont feel right about it then dont do it. if you think your friendship is stronger than your feelings then just stay friends. and if yall did date and then it didnt work out. yall would eventually just go back o being close friends because thats where it all started anyway. just dont have sex. atleast not for a while. sex can make things complicated. good luck.
