I'm not bad looking, I'm friendly and I carry myself like a lady so why do I keep attracting men that are in relationships, they say crap like--she doesn't understand me, I'm in a transition--... I really need to know what is it that could be convincing these men(?) that I'd be up for that kind of game. I really need to know what about me says that I'd even go for this CRAP so that I can turn it off or change cause I'm really NOT into wiating for HIM to get around to me.
We're not retreating... we're advancing in another direction.

I think that you just need to make your standards higher. Don't talk to men like this. Don't even bother to begin with. Be picky when you meet people, and you'll find that this will make your dating life a lot more positive. Maybe you won't always be with someone, but when you are with someone, it will be the type of person you actually want to be with, without all the ridiculous baggage. Just be patient. Put yourself in situations where you are meeting people, whether that means joining clubs, classes, groups, etc. Good luck. Just don't forget what you deserve and don't lower your standard from that.
Hi honey,
Don't punish yourself, don't give up .Sometimes men see a nice girl and they think they have an opportunity with anyone even though being in a relationship. What you can do is have your girlfriend introduce you to some guys a little help from friends will at least keep out involved men.

I'm gonna talk in a more broader sense,hoping that u'll get the point, u c that the most common mistake that alot of women fall in (specially about thier appearence) is that they make chioces thinking that it will attract the type of men they look forward to getting invoved with, while what they are really doing is attracting the wrong kind, likewise in relations , if u pay more attention to guys surrounding u might notice mr.wright peaking glances at u without u noticing and might be shy to approach u, so dont be shy to take the initiative and approach a guy u like knowing that he wont find the guts to approach u, believe me u'll be surprised by the quality of guys that are generally shy but once u get to them u'll find a totally different thing than what thier appearance might indicate, pay less attention to appearences and concentrate on the inside, and if u ask how would u come to know that, i can tell u from my own experiance that if i'm sexually attracted to a girl and have less emotional affections towards her i will find it more easier to feed her with tons of crap, in the other hand if i'm really into a girl, surprisingly i find my self unable to say even the simplest things or gathering my thoughts and i cant be that sweet talker anymore, so pay more attention to these detials and i think u'll be just fine, just dont forget to invite me to the wedding.
MY inferiority complex isn't as good as YOURS
I agree with the other replies.Alot of men are like that and they pick out the girl who wants to nurture and help them with their problems.They see this girl as weak.I don't think you're weak,just a little beaten down.I would take a break from guys and travel.Do things you always wanted to do and meet a ton of new people.Men are attracted to a girl who is spontaneous and happy with herself.When I got divorced,I took off to Egypt for a week,then Greece after that.I didn't have a lot of money so I stayed in Hostels (and no...nobody tried to kill me) and I took trains and ships instead of flying.If you give off the vibe that you've been places and seen things boys will be less likely to try and pull one over on you.Good luck!
Take everything that everyone here has already told you and add the following statement, also there is one hitch, take it to heart and repeat it daily........
IF YOU DO WHAT YOU'VE ALWAYS DONE, YOU'LL GET WHAT YOU'VE ALWAYS GOTTEN.
It's time to change up your game, if you don't, you can't expect things to change.
I'll search, while you wait.
When you meet a guy, ask him is he seeing anyone? If he says yes, tell him to leave you alone and you won't be bothered with his sob stories about the trouble he's having with her. Obviously, you already know what to tell him if you do determine that he has a lady friend. If he says she doesn't understand me, I'm in a transition--... tell him: what makes you think that I'd be up for that kind of game, cause I'm really NOT into wiating for YOU to get around to me. Wait and listen for his reply -- if any. Then walk away feeling confident as you did before you met him, while still being the lady that you are.
Fool me once,
shame on you!!
Fool me twice,shame on me!
i agree with the others!you have to change,meaning,who you talk to,start getting picky who you hang out with!pay more attention to the quiet guys,the shy ones!
You probably are attractive enough to get their attention in the first place and secondly a great listener so they feel comfortable talking to you. If you tell them what they want to hear when they're complaining about their spouse or mate simply by saying "I would never do that...or that's crazy..." you're these guys dream come true, in the short run anyway. You only faults appears to be you're nice and care enough to listen to someone's troubles in the first place. You obviously would like to be in a relationship and your openness is appealing to a troubled man. Adopt a rule for yourself to ask a possible would be great guy up front if he is married or in a serious realtionship. If the answer is "yes",run the other way if it's "No" press on until you're convinced he's not lying. If he proves to be an honest Jobe, the Crap you speak of should be a thing of the past and you'll have more time and energy to spend on all the other crap that comes with any realtionship. Good luck
