The important thing is to examine the losses and figure out WHY you lost each game. If you could eliminate one source of error from your play with each lost game, you'd be a GM in a year or two.
I hate losing so much

No no I definitely hate losing more than you hate hearing about it. No contest.

No one becomes a GM in a year or two under any circumstance.
Yeah losing sucks
I joined over 2 weeks ago and already have 109 losses. And these losses are to 200-300 rated players who are regarded on this site as very bad

That's because no one can "eliminate one source of error from your play with each lost game".

I'm guessing that's why I'm losing, but then I make dumb blunders so I really wonder.

You're going to have to get used to it. Unless you're at the very top of the pile, about half of your matches will be losses.

I always think of this clue clip. She started to adlib and they kept it in the movie.
Yea, so do I. Unfortunately, NO ONE will ever play chess competitively and win every single game. As far as I know, there has never been an undefeated chess player. Never will be.

Yeah, I seem to be running into a pattern, 2 losses then 2 wins, then 2 losses, then 2 wins.

I don't like playing people who are as good as me... I guess that means I don't like to lose but that's not how I'd describe my experience of it. What I dislike is having to work so hard. I feel like it takes a lot of energy to maintain your best level, and only 1 mistake to lose a game, and that's not very fun.

That's pretty much true in any competitive activity...except for Rocky Marciano.
