Stop stringing them along. Yes there are lots of people out there looking for a relationship. But if you "just want friendships", then you cant make women believe you want a relationship with them.

My guess is, there's lots of miscommunication with these women you meet.

Tell em up front, you are not looking for a full blown relationship. If you are just "dating", you need to tell them up front, again, you are "dating", and you are dating other women too. You will then give the women a chance to decide if they want to date you, or move on.

If ya make us believe we are the one and only, and you make us think we are the only one you are dating, then that would bother anyone.

If it were reversed, you'd be messed up too.

Get your priorities in order, and be honest up front, it'll do ya a lot of good.
