Default Weird 2nd gear issues

If I am driving my car normal say shifting around 2500 rpm's or so. Then 75% of the time the car fails to go in 2nd. It doesn't grind or anything, it just feels as if there is a wall there that I can't go past. I'll wiggle the shifter a bit in neutral and then it slides in like butter. But if I really get on it, then 2nd will go in perfectly.
Its just annoying that I have to take the rpms up just so I can shift into second properly.

Sorry about the repeat post. Just that the search function was not working for a day or two.
