So I like this guy who's name is Zack and I like him a lot. He does know that I exist, but the problem is that he acts like he doesn't like me. Last year, a lot of his friends said that he liked me and I don't know about this year, but I have a big feeling he does. My question is how do I get him to like me or know that he likes me so he can ask me out? (link)

While you can not make Zack or anyone else like you, you can make friends with him to start. This will give him a chance to get to know you better. After getting to know you, he may begin to have feelings for you.
If you become friends and get to know each other better, and you still like him, then try flirting with him. That will give him a chance to flirt back and could lead to him then asking you out.
Don't discuss your feelings or your relationship with Zack with his friends either. His friends do not know how he really feels, and even though they may have the best intentions, it could mess things up.

I've been with my boyfriend for two and a half years, and our relationship has been through various things (We got together when he was in his final year of high school, I was in my second last) As you can see, this meant that our relationship went through seeing each other almost every day, to once or so a week once he graduated and started working and now we see each other whenever we can, as I am in university and he is still working (but starting university next year).
The thing is though that I get clingy. I know it myself, and I've been trying to work on keeping the distance. My boyfriend would really like to disappear for a day or two every now and then. But I somehow always get the feeling that if I didn't initiate contact, it could be a week without me hearing from him and I'm not really up for such.
Right now, I'm just asking for tips on how I can keep my distance. In the sense that if we were together one day, how do I resist temptations to text or whatever him the next day already?
Overall, how do I keep myself from being overly-clingy?
Naturally I have other friends, and I do things with them, as well as I am busy with university studies so I am not a forever alone person dependent on my boyfriend! Of course not.
But the temptation to text is still there, if that makes sense.
Anyone have any tips? I know he gets tired of this sometimes, and he's honest about it. But at the same time he knows I'm trying and it's not as if I am purposefully like that. (link)

Being together for two and half years, I wouldn't think a simple text once a day should be a problem. No, men usually do not like to talk on the phone very much and texting isn't anything they ant to do. However, a two and half year relationship is not one in which you are "clingy" because you text him the day after you've seen him.
Now if you are sending message after message to him all day long, then yeah that is way too much.
I do not think disappearing for a couple of days is appropriate for him to be doing either.
If he is asking you to stay completely away without even texting him at all for a day or two, I would find that very unreasonable and a little suspicious.
Sounds to me like the two of you need to sit down together and have a discussion about your relationship and expectations each of you has now and for the future.
Good luck.

Blowing up his phone with messages, needing to know where he is every minute, and expecting him to spend all his free time with you is clingy.
