Okay, I've had a problem over the past few years. It seems that every woman I attract seem to really like me a lot, but all of them are, in some form, on the rebound. I don't actively seek out women who've just gotten out of a relationship...it's just been my luck of the draw.
It's been much more frequent lately because I've developed the reputation as the "rebound man", like I'm sort sort of screwed-up superhero. I'm just a nice guy who seems to make these women feel special after their jerk ex-boyfriends trampled all over them, then when things start to feel a little too serious for them, they freak out and it's all over.
I've tried to be casual about these things, but more and more I've realized that I'm just not wired that way. I'm sick of being the relationship rehab counselor. I'm ready for something more; something with an unlimited shelf life.
I guess what I'm asking here is...has anyone else had this problem? If so, have you been able to break the cycle and how?

I still enjoy being the rebound guy - that's because I know that and I never fall for them. The women need not know that. Normally guys have a much longer shelf life than women - if you wanted something more, try being a jerk and stop being the nice guy.

It seems like you're just getting involved with women at the wrong time. It's not your fault at all, it's just bad timing. It seems like you're a really nice guy since you can connect with women so well. That's a good quality to have because most men don't have a clue how to comfort women =P. Just keep on being who you are and doing what you do. When you find someone "wanting more", then the timing will be right for the both of you.
Good luck!!!
