Hey, I hope I can help a little with your confidence about this matter from my own experience.
IMO I think you are blessed to have so many close relationships with women around you who feel so at ease with you that they want to hang out and spend lots of time with you. I can understand your frustration that you want things to go further because of the great friendship and also attraction that you feel. But I really think you should carry on as you are and not worry too much about it because I feel that what you are doing at the moment is setting up a perfect situation for a soul mate connection and eventually one of them is sure to realise you are the man of her dreams.
I had a friend who I also thought of as a brother or a gay friend (as you put it) and I felt so comfortable with him like I could tell him anything and could trust him with anything, which I could. We have been friends for 14 years in all now and when we got together it was the most amazing experience ever like no relationship Ive had before (or since). We are not together at the moment due to various issues, but he is still a very close friend (even though we live in separate countries for now) and always will be my soul mate and possible future husband...
Sorry to ramble...but my point is I really do think that you must be an amazing person to have girls behave like that with you and relate to you so well and feel so comfortable with you. Trust me, many guys don`t have that natural vibe with women that makes them feel understood and relaxed. I think you should not try and be something you aren`t and be happy that you can have these great connections. Something will come of it one day soon, just don`t be on the lookout too much for it and it will happen naturally I`m sure.
Keep being how you are coz you sound great!! ;-)
