I'll keep the story as short as possible. I started going out with this girl about 3 weeks ago. We seem to enjoy each other's company and we seem to really click and get along well. My interactions with her usually consist of flirting with her and joking with her. We usually only go out once a week because of conflicting schedules because both of us have two jobs. That results in the dates ending early most of the time because she has work at night in her other job so I can't take her to the bars or clubs to get some drinks despite wanting to do so.
I've been showing my interest in wanting to be more than friends with her. When we're walking or sitting down, i've put my arm around her and she doesn't seem to mind. The problem is, I notice she isn't doing it back by putting her arm around me as well. I admit though I haven't kissed her yet because I haven't been in any situation where I can do it where it wouldn't feel forced. I also am not sure if I am the one who is supposed to be initiating the kiss (even on the cheek) or she should be the one doing it. I ask this because i'm not even 100% sure she feels the same way about me that I do about her.
Dude, what are you doing? 3 weeks you've been "dating" this girl and you still haven't even kissed her?! C'mon man! Sack the fuck up and do it!!

All my friends have told me that she clearly likes me and she clearly wants to be with me but they all notice that she seems to be holding back her feelings. She's a little shy because when I first met her, it took her a while to open up to me but me and her eventually became closer. How close though.... whether we end up being friends or lovers.... only time will tell
No! Fuck that "only time will tell" bull shit! YOU will make it happen or it won't happen at all. If you don't make it happen, you're gonna be the guy who takes her shoe shopping while she fucks someone else... If that's not already happening. She is shy because you are shy. This isn't grade school anymore dude. If you like the girl, you show her that. You don't sit around waiting for her to make a move. You are the man. You make the move.
You lead. She follows.

Anyway lately she's been telling me a lot about her personal life and all the problems she's been going through. I admit i'm not very good at listening to other people when they vent to me but I try my best to be a good listener and I try my best to have something to say regarding what she's telling me.
In conclusion, the question I have is this.... since she's now telling me about her personal life she obviously trusts me but the question I have is.... am I friendzoned? Do I still have a chance of being more than friends with her or did I reach my ceiling when it comes to how far i'm gonna get with her? What should I go moving forward when it comes to my interactions with her?
Any feedback would help greatly. Thanks in advance guys.
Yes you're in the friend zone. She now feels comfortable with you and doesn't have to spread her legs for you. You were in the friend zone before she started telling you all of that shit. You put yourself there by not being aggressive enough.
You need to be more aggressive and powerful dude. Be a fucking lion. Get some "UMPHH!" behind you and start making moves. Stop being so scared.
On the contrary.... I am glad to see that you are going out and meeting girls. Keep that up for sure!! Just work on getting better.
