I honestly think they are better off as Friends. Just friends. And that doesn't mean she loved him romantically. He left her, And never contacted her again until the first time she went to the empire. He left her when he got his cutie mark. she lost her friend when he got his cutie mark. This led her to believe Cutie Marks are bad and nopony should have any.

You don't have to love someone to get mad because you've lost them. And I do know this but I still just can't get into it. I prefer Sunburst with Fluttershy, I think Fltuterbrust just.. Goes better. I think they are more likely to get in a relationship. I also like Starlight with Dr. whooves.

It just.. Kind of fits better. I used to ship Starburst too but I stopped. I had to really think it through and I just can't see them actually getting in a relationship. i can see them being Best Friends. But no more than that.
