What clutch do you currently have? Maybe your clutch isnt disengaging properly. Also, have you checked the fluid?

i guess it should be stock or a direct-replacement.. i just purchased the car 3 months ago.. fluid seems ok.. if i bleed would it make some sort of difference to the stick>?

Could be clutch/hydraulics, or too much play in the shifter linkage (worn fork pads/shifter bushing)
