Jim,

What do you like about the woman you are seeing this weekend? Even better - how does what you have to offer her match her positive qualities?

That's the immediate response. Now, let's address your long-term problem of falling for women who aren't interested and not being intersted in fallen (?!) women. Are the two groups of women that different other than one group is interested in you and the other is not?

Do You Pick The Kind of Woman Who Would be Interested in You?

It's not the wrong kind of woman--he's just scaring them by being anxious or overbearing.

Is there one type of woman that you ALWAYS fall for?

Is this kind of woman NEVER going to be interested in you (for example - she is a real wild woman, likes bikers and partying, you are afraid of driving in a volvo faster than 30 miles per hour). If so - you are sabotaging yourself. Lots of people do this - it saves them from ever having to have difficult conversations about relationships, committment, sharing private property and major purchases, etc. You may just not be ready. Which is fine - as long as you keep in mind that when you are ready, you'll have to be a little more courageous.

Maybe You Need to Wait Longer Before Jumping in

The other possibility is that you are not spending enough time on ANY woman long enough to develop mutual interest and respect. Maybe you are wanting to know if she is the "one" right away. That does happen for some people - but it took me, personally, almost a year to turn my "dating" into a relationship with my current boyfriend, and I know plenty of people that have taken even longer.

It doesn't matter how much time you spend- it won't work if they are not both at the same emotional maturity level.

Maybe you need to just spend time

with someone for a while before jumping into something?

So, I suggest you ask yourself a few questions:

1. What do I have to offer a woman, and what am I looking for in a woman?

2. Do I really want a committed relationship right now? What would my life be like in this relationship?

3. How long of a period can I spend on someone before I give up on them?

Think about these questions for a while. You'll solve your own problems if you can answer them honestly.
