People who have a best friend from the other sex (especially those who were friends from childhood), has your friendship remained nonromantic over the years?

Well she has a boyfriend and we both have morals. There's has been periods over the 20 years I've been friends with her that we have both been single but nothing really happened. Think it would be weird. Attraction isn't really an issue, from either side. If I just met her in a bar I'd definitely try and hook up with her. We both just have very different personalities. I'm a junkie and a big drinker who mainly has one night stands and is terrified of commitment and she doesn't drink, hates drugs and would never have a one night stand. We speak every day though and make sure we spend at least one evening a week with each other to go out for dinner or a movie or just to be in each others company. And I absolutely adore her, and love our friendship far too much to risk it by trying to make it a romantic one anyway.
