I have been at a 0g for 3 months but, still I can only fit half of my taper through my ear. I would like to go to a 00g but I can't. What could be the problem, I don't think i'm rushing because I have been a 0g for 3 months. Most people don't even wait that long to go a 00g!

Also, I brought a 00g short thick steel taper(didn't help)
00g Acrylic taper(thin, regular, didn't help)
So, I even tried to do the taping method but, when i wrap a piece around my 0g plug they want go in.

00G can either be 9mm or 10mm, so try to find something in 9mm first. Also do daily oil massages and your lobes will loosen up faster. 3 months isn't THAT long, you should usually wait about 6-8 weeks between sizes but it can take longer. I've had to wait 3-4 months with most sizes.
