Trying to find a way to get 3 year multiple entry Schengen Visa to be able to visit German boyfriend and his Family

In my experience (with over 6 multiple entry schengen visa's with Sri Lankan passport), the more you traveled to and out of the schengen zone the higher the chance of applying and getting a long term visa. I visited my gf in Budapest so many times, and actually ended up getting a residence permit for "other purpose" by showing our bank accounts, employment etc in Hungary. But I didn't renew it as I have to come back home often for work (since there is a permit stipulation which states I can't be out for more than 3-6 month per period, and I couldn't obviously fulfill that due to work and other travel). So I simply ended up applying for a long term 3 year visa and got it. Again with a letter from my gf, both our employment docs. Wasn't an issue, and got it approved in 5 working days due to my visa history.

Generally speaking, Schengen visa with long validity and multiple entries are given after a few visits on shorter, single-entry visa without overstays or incidents. Your previous Italian visa should count in your favor.

It might become problematic if your ties to your place of residence (the UK) become weak.
