<human>: Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?

As the title says i'm a16 year old male! I have an issue with actually the romantic side of relationships with females. 

So far whenever there is a girl i feel attracted to i build up a friendship with and whenever it gets to the part of asking them out i always get the 'You're like a brother to me' or ' i wouldn't want ruin our friendship'.

Most of these girls i've felt attracted to are girls that i already have a close friendship with! 
Is there any advice people can give me with this 'like a brother to me' phase. 

Also what goes through a girl's mind when they say 'You're like a brother to me'? Thank you for any help.
