How do I deal with the person dating other people when doing online dating?

OK while I realize that certain things come with the territory, my biggest problem with internet dating is that I have guys drop me for a girl that they think is "better" in their minds. I'm not clingy, I don't demand that the guy calls me every waking moment and I DEFINITELY am not desperate because I have a lot of things going on in my life to keep busy. But I keep running into the same scenario each time! I start dating a guy, then a month or so into it, he loses interest, gets too busy and then I find out that he was dating some other girl at the time and liked her better. I don't get this, I understand that timing is everything but I seriously must just keep hitting rough patches.

I understand that it takes time before you can determine whether or not you want to date someone exlusively. BUT it is really a blow to the ego when I am constantly worried that I am not good enough and that someone more interesting, attractive, funny, etc is going to blow the guy away and then another guy bites the dust.

Does anyone have any advice of how to be comfortable with the fact that the person you are dating and like is dating other people and that there is the possibility that they can find someone else that they think is better than you?
