Is it normal i always choose the wrong men?

My first relationship wasn't very significant. We were young, he was my first and I had different plans for the future.
But I all starts with my second. We were together for two and a half years. He emotionally abused me. Lied to me. Didn't care for me. Made me feel depressed. Got me pregnant and left me for someone else. We were on and off all the time, mainly due to him leaving me for other women and him saying he cant work out how he feels.
My third relationship. It was good at first. Then he just stopped paying interest. He didn't make an effort with me. He stopped caring.
My fourth, which ended yesterday, I caught him cheating on me with my 'friend'. He also didn't really show he cared or appreciated that much.
Apart from relationships, all my dates have gone awful. And men only seem to want me for sex and nothing more.

Am I doing something wrong? It's starting to depress me. Nothing can never go right. I never seem to receive respect off the opposite sex. No one seems to care or apprectiate me for the person I am. I am kind, caring, interesting and intelligent. But it's like no one even wants to try to get to know me.

Or am I unconsciously going for the same type of men, the wrong men? Am I unlucky in love? Is there hope for me? Please vote on is it normal I always choose the wrong men. Sorry for the questions.

    I have found that relationships can tend to go in patterns and not necessarily in a good way, as you appear to have as well.

    Do men perceive you as 'needy' maybe? And therefore open to be taken advantage of?

    You are obviously a kind, intelligent and articulate individual. Is there a possibility you have (and I hate to use the term)self esteem issues? Are you confident and/or successful in other areas of your life?

    • I'm the pretty much the opposite of needy. I love being single and never actively look for relationships. All the relationships I have had, it's because they approached me, did all the work and asked me to be with them. And I have never acted needy in the actual relationship.
      I just never seem to be respected for who I am.

        Perhaps you have just been desperately unlucky so far.

    Can you give some insight to what type of guys your exes are or what type of guys you are interested in?

    • All of my ex's have all different personalities, so I don't tend to go for a type. I go men with the similar appearance but that obviously doesn't determine how they act.

    Honey child, you got a broken picker! Work on yourself and take a break from men and relationships.

    You're on your fifth relationship! I think most people have been in more than that before finally meeting the ONE!
