text: how can i get my guy friend that we have been friends for 3 years to get him to like me? more than a friend? i mean i already told him that i liekd him more then a friend, but he told me to have patience, but i have been having patience for about year and nothing happens. what should i do? please don't be angry but has it ever crossed your mind that maybe he doesn't want to go in that direction. he may be just trying to spare your feelings. my advice is to let it go for awhile and maybe just maybe he'll come around. if not then just be thankful for the friendship
