The 3rd gears syncros go out more frequently than every other gear on civic transmissions, they're noted for it. It's your syncro, it's worn, to reduce the problem double clutch - as when you double clutch it eliminates/lowers the work on the syncro.

EDIT:
PS: Obviously you'll have to replace it or something at some point.
