Here's the thing. Good girls might now win while us men are younger and more interested in experiencing life. But in the end, men want to marry the so-called "good girls", not the hot to trot chicks we were running through because they made themselves available.

To be clear, I'm not saying you should wait around on him either. I just wanted to state that.

But he does all these things with you because he genuinely enjoys your company. And it sounds like he likes you, but perhaps at this point, he's not ready for a real relationship and he knows it so he's keeping you all in the friend zone. Except he's not doing it - you are. You're keeping yourself there because you're hoping that he'll realize the error of his ways and fall madly in love with you. While it's probably unfair to be spending all of this quality time with you, unless you've told him you like him, in his mind, he's just hanging with his friend. Unless he is ready to settle down with you, he won't bring it up either.

As we get older, we start looking towards the women we have connections with and with whom we enjoy spending our time. Maybe you'll be there when he's ready. Maybe you won't. But just know that this outcome is probably largely on you. If you want out of the friend zone you are going to need to speak your mind and be ready to deal with the consequences.
