Looks like you play a lot of 1 minute and 3 minute games. The problem is that it is very difficult to play that fast even if you are a strong player because there is little/no time to think and a lot of it is instinctive. At the moment you are not a strong player so it is highly unlikely you will play well at such time controls. Leave the quick games alone for a while, play daily games or 30 minute games, practice tactics, absorb information about the game etc. Improve your knowledge of how to play well, hone your instincts, then return to the bullet and blitzing with a better skill set.
Thank you, but bullet games are all I really have time for.

If you don't have time for longer games and chess study, then there is nothing anyone can help you with.

Agreed. I also wonder how much time is spent on these "quickie" games? It is definitely better to play fewer slow games than many faster ones. I suggest getting involved in correspondence Chess to really hone one`s opening skills.
