Jul 31, 2018 at 20:44 comment added probably_someone If your source is vibrating one end of the string, then that end is no longer fixed, and the normal standing-wave conditions (which assume two fixed ends) don't apply.
Jul 31, 2018 at 20:13 comment added Philip Wood But have you considered what happens to the reflected wave when it reaches the 'source end' of the string, and so on? There will be interference between an infinite number of waves. It's not that hard to handle it mathematically, but easier if you lose a small fraction of the amplitude on each reflection.
