Platonic friendships...or stepping stone to something deeper? plz discuss

Im not sure how most of you feel on this topic about platonic friendships with the opposite sex. Anyway right now im going through something of the sort with this girl, and it feels like there's something deeper and meaningful in the center...I've only been on a few dates with her, but since the beginning there was strong chemistry. the way i look at her and the way she looks at me. Cuddling/holding hands with her and talking about almost anything. Since the last date she's been texting me on the phone, she asks about my day and i ask about hers. Strange how we havent spoken to each other on the phone since exchanging #s. im not even sure where this is all going but we'll have to see.

this is the first time i've experienced something like this with a girl. they do say the best relationships come from friendships...i wonder if its possible to develop both at the same time.

What's your take on platonic friendships?

What you described sounds like regular old dating to me... sounds like it's all going well.

I'm not sure why you call this a platonic friendship.
