Need help. clutch engaging very low.

Need help. clutch engaging very low.
alright, so my clutch engagement started to feel low, like almost to the floor all of a sudden. its very hard to get into gear now and i have no idea why.
at first i thought i had air in the system, so i bled the clutch. after i bled it, engagement was normal and everything was fine. after i drove around for 5 minutes, the engagement went right back down to the ground.
i bled the clutch 2 more times and both times the clutch engagement would go back to normal, then drop down to the ground again. no idea whats going on.
my friend who works on hondas says i could have a bad slave cylinder. im not too sure i might replace that.
anybody have any experience with this?

luckily for me, its sunday and dealerships are closed so getting a new master cylinder is going to take a second.
but anyway, im about to check under the car to see if i have any fluid leaking. i doubt its the TOB tho, thank god, because i really dont feel like spending a whole day replacing something like that.
do you happen to know the part number for the master cylinder or if i could get it from napa?

torch it means blow ure car up. t.b means throw out bearing....... when the engine revs higher and for a perisod of distance itll get fluid warm so there for itll leak past somthing easier if so it can be found quickly.... if it doesnt do it if u say are on the interstate after 5 clutch depresses its more or less the throwout bearing because this is the unit that always has gravity on it. .. ( meaning the fluid coming down the line to the slave).

As the others said, definitely a hydraulic issue. Either the master or slave is failing, causing the system to not hold pressure when the clutch pedal is depressed.
