My DD aged 18 yrs left year 13 last summer after doing A levels.. she had a group of male and female friends at school. There was one male friend who she got on really well with, but as friends. At the prom he paid her more attention and was touchy feely holding hands, dancing, hugs etc....Then the summer kicked in and they all went their separate ways. Then 3 weeks ago this lad contacted her via FB asking how things were and they went for a coffee. Yet again they got on really well and left with a big hug with the intention of meeting up to see a show in London. It took 2 weeks before my DD got her act together and got back in touch with him , which I'm not sure went down too well! Last night they went to London and had a nice evening, chatting with no awkwardness at all and when he got up to leave the train he wished her a safe journey and "speak soon". DD sent a text when she got home just saying that she "really enjoyed the evening and hopefully he did too, speak soon :)x" ...... she hasn't heard from him today and now wonders if she 's done something wrong, or are they "just friends and nothing else ". She's confused and I need help, because things were different when I was going out at her age, and I really don't know if this is the normal for teenage behaviour. As even if they were just friends I'm surprised he didn't answer the text. Any advice would be very helpful as I'm not sure what to say to her.
