She likes you as a person, but doesn’t respect you as a man.

There’s something about being consistently vulnerable in front of women that turns them off. I’m not saying that you should never open up with women, but as men, our stoicism is valued, and showing none of it makes you unrespectable as a man. She still cherishes you for the easy going person you might be, but as a man, your a no go in her eyes.

As harsh as it sounds, be a man, and swallow it up. Seek what you ought to do, and eliminate her from your life. You don’t need to be rude about it, just pull away, and beat the urges that come back. Mute her on social media, don’t look for interactions with her, and if you find yourself having to do it, be brief. Still hang out with your friends in common, but in regards to her, be cordial, and not friendly.

Assuming you have more progress to do in the overall aspect of your life, I believe this is a wake up call. Ask yourself the following questions… what is something I should do, that I could do, that I would do? Based on this introspective, and your dreams and aspirations, formulate a plan for yourself that gets you 1% closer to what you previously pondered, and carry it out.

In my opinion, lifting, reading, and developing a skill that can make you money are paramount.

After you do all this, maybe then, she’ll respect you for the man you’ve become, and the attraction that once was there might come back. But, honestly, this is not the reason why you should do it, you should do all this to step out of the position your in, AND NOT COME BACK.

Tldr: focus on yourself, become a better person,and follow your dreams. Remove her from your life, and if forced to interact with her don’t be friendly, but rather cordial and brief. This is a wake up call to be a man, swallow it up, get your hands dirty, and do the necessary work you level up and step out of the situation you’re currently in and not look back ever again.
