You're a complete beginner. Expect to lose. Keep playing. Do the drills. Do the lessons. Find friends you can play against and get help from them. Don't give up.
I really need some advice

You are very new! Don't get discouraged. We all start at the bottom and it takes time. The website has amazing lessons in the guide section. They are part of the reason I got a membership myself, there's tons of very useful and fun guides. I suggest trying them with your free trial and then seeing if they are worth it for you.

hey guys, thank you so much for the support/advice!!!
i will do my lessons and care less about my ranking at the moment.
everything is said! <3

Just learn and enjoy the game, dont stress too much as it takes time to build that skill and confidence. Keep pushing forward :tup

Just as a side note, try to stay away from Blitz and Bullet. It will get you into the habit of not thinking deep and thus slowing down your improvement and long-term enjoyment of the game.

First of all, if you wish to improve, you will have to be patient. Improvement takes time. I you really wish to, you can improve however.
Here are some tips that might help you out:

In any case, good luck.

@Throwups -- fast games can be entertaining, but will *not* teach a beginner very much. If you want to learn, a lot of folks in this thread gave some rock solid advice. Learn about opening principles, learn tactics, play in some slower games so you have time to think, analyze your games afterwards.
For opening principles, try this 8-minute video:
Chess Basics: Opening Principles
And welcome aboard! It can be a lifetime of fun! How far you go depends on how much you want to learn. And it does take some learning to advance up the ratings ladder (which, as someone else noted, should be irrelevant to a newcomer)
If you are serious about wanting to get better, and you liked what was in that 8 minute video, I strongly strongly recommend as your first chess book purchase, John Emms, Discovering Chess Openings

Im no great shakes but I was taught by my step father to make sure all your pieces are protected and attack unprotected pieces
A simple thing you can do is to not resign. Even if you lose every piece, you still have a chance to draw via stalemate. This is especially true at your level, where people may be less familiar with endgames. If they're down to just a few pieces, they might not known how to checkmate and draw after 50 moves or stalemate you. Or, if they have loads of pieces, they might get careless about what legal moves you have and once again stalemate you. While this might not really be helping you improve, it can at least help you not lose a few more games.

Look at Chessbrah’s Building Habits series, they have some good information. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axRvksIZpGc&list=PLUjxDD7HNNThftJtE0OIRFRMMFf6AV_69

Some good advice here and I like what @nTzT offered. I'll just add this hyperlink because I think it might be worth a look for you I wrote it mostly for players under 1000 rating hoping to improve, but what I like is that the ideas are simple and it doesn't require any memorization of opening lines
