I´m not an expert, but, I remember reading somewhere that Mars does not have enough gravity to support an atmosphere suitable for humans, most water molecules can evaporate "into space". Due to Mars lower gravity 3.71 m/s^2 (roughly 38% of earth´s), its more feasible for "normal" molecules to achieve escape velocity and thus bleed into space....

Mars bleeds atmosphere in millions of years timescales. Not enough to effect it in human life time scales.

It matters a lot of it bleeds off faster than you can reasonably replenish it.
