    I really like all the advice you give on here and I searching for something similar to this but I didn’t see anything I didn’t want to have you answer something you have already but I couldn’t find it lol

    I’m going to do my best to summarize this. Basically I have been seeing this one girl for a few days under 3 years now and when I asked her out in the past she told me no and kinda put me in an odd friend zone. When we met the first year we saw each other almost every night. Then this past semester we saw each other a little less like 1-2 times a week and she would always ask me to come over around 9-10 at night then I’d stay to 4-8am. A few days before last thanksgiving we went to a party and she got drunk and I’ve noticed that she nearly completely avoids me when she drinks and once she told me she couldn’t drink around me because she’d try to sleep with me but I’ve never seen such an attempt and I wouldn’t let her try drunk anyways which she knows. At the party one regular looking guy danced with her and kissed her and I don’t know how to be angry at a girl and I didn’t want to get angry at the guy because he had no idea what he did so I left and didn’t talk to her for a few weeks until she told me she was really sick so I went to see her and then I cut her off from talking to me for a little over a month until last weekend which was her birthday so I surprised her the night before it with her favorite cake and a bouquet of roses. After a while she asked If I would drink with her so then we got drunk and one of her close friends came with her bf. The girl I like completely distanced me again for 1-2 hours while she was drunk and with her friend and I got annoyed so when she left to get something from her room I asked her what my crushes problem was and she told me it was because “she was afraid and intimidated by me”. I’ve been seeing her for 3 years! Then probably texted my crush I was annoyed by her and was going to leave so she asked me to go to her room and we went to sleep. I still haven’t ever kissed her though, and I haven’t because I don’t want to have my first kiss with her while we are drunk because I want it to be special and because I’m accustomed to girls asking me permission to kiss me so I feel like I’m being overly aggressive If I was to pull her over and try. I have too much respect for her to. Even the other day during a conversation I told her I couldn’t replace her because she is really special to me and she still told me there is nothing about her I should think she’s special for since she’s an “ordinary girl”. I’m completely in love with this girl and I don’t know how to get it across in a way she’d believe that I’m genuine with it. She even gets angry when I say hello to my female acquaintances in classes lol. I’ve been trying to give her compliments often this past week to try to boost her ego but I want to do and know everything possible which I could do to make her mine and trust my words, I’ve never given her a reason to doubt them either. 🙁

    I’m sorry this is very long and I’d sincerely appreciate any advice your willing to give me!
    Thank you so much!

    It sounds like you’ve liked a girl for three years, and have been stuck in the friend zone for as long. 😕 Obviously, you have to do things differently because what you’re doing now isn’t working.

    My first piece of advice is that you buy and read Date Out of Your League, [url]https://www.askapril.com/relationship-dating-advice/date-out-of-your-league.html[/url], a book I wrote for men who want to win with women. It has a lot of dating basics in it, and it’s going to help you a lot. And if you’re hanging out with her from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. in the morning, you can easily find time to read it! So, do that first.

    Second, stop being so available. Women don’t like “the nice guy” who always finishes last, so stop being him. 😉 Let her see that you’ve got a life (and if you don’t have one, get one!) so she’ll find you more attractive. These marathon hang out sessions in her room aren’t making her want to date you because you’re there all the time anyway — and hanging out isn’t very exciting — especially with someone who’s always there.

    Third, I know you’re shy, but you have to find a way to become more in charge of yourself. You can still feel shy, but you need to behave in ways that show you’re in charge of your life. If you want to kiss a girl, you shouldn’t wait for her to ask permission to kiss her. 😕 More about that in the book.

    I hope this helps — let me know how things go. I know a lot of this is different for you, but you can do it! And you’re gong to be a much more desirable boyfriend if you follow the advice is Date Out of Your League. 😀
