writes:Well i have been stuck in the friend category for way too long. I have known this guy for almost three years now and we have continued to treat each other with respect and care.I actually met him in a very casual manner but we did not exchange any information with each other even if i did feel we hit it off very well.I was remembering back one day and had asked a mutual friend who had introduced us for his phone number. At that point we made it an issue to meet up and test the waters. We dated for maybe a week when we got back in contact with each other for the very first time and now he and i continue to have a relationship that seems to go too far on my behalf.These past few years, he has continually been the one to call all the shots- well when it comes to getting together or continue to have contact with each other.I have been there for him through thick and thin. We have a lot of run-ins. He has seen me at my worst and i have seen him at his. I have witnessed a few of his own break-ups with his ex girlfriends and he has seen to it that i am not making bad choices with my choice in men. I know he cares, but I never know when to move on from the idea of him and me trying to get together again. So this is why i am asking this question.He used to be a real jerk but now he seemed to have a changed heart. He joined the Marine Corps and is still in the training process. He came back recently and like always i was there to be his best friend but this time i felt differently. I finally told him that "i loved him" and he replied with the same. now he is back in Missouri and the only contact i have with him is via text messaging. How do i get out of this friendship stage and become much more?

 well you guys have told eachother you love eachother and he feels the same that is a great start from the friend zone.
when texting him ask him next time he is home does he want to go out to the cinemas or something and progress it from there.
i mean if you guys love eachother then you're obviously out of the friend zone just pop him a text and ask him out like when he comes back to go to the cinema or to get something to eat or anything.
Hope this helps.
