Okay I'm sorry this will sound very arrogant but I'm really not, I'm just ignorant.

I am in my 50s. I have made a pause of over 30 years when I didnt play chess. I see the games you play and I'm just completely mystified whats going on. I see no plans. Your pieces arent working together at all. You constantly leave pieces undefended and yet your opponent doesnt take them. The opponent does the same. Basically every second move is a blunder. Its all pure chaos to me.

I would assume what you lack is any awareness of whats going on on the chessboard and for that there is a simple solution: solve puzzes daily (or on any other regular schedule, just as long as you keep doing it).

If you keep doing that, you will gain better awareness of what is happening on the chessboard. You will blunder less and catch the blunders of your opponent more often.

It should also help if you play slow time controls and really sit on your hands and truely think about your every move before you are making one. Like making a blunder check: is the field that you move your piece to under attack by your opponent, while your piece is undefended ? Or are there more attackers on your piece than you have defenders ?

The real rule is of course a bit more complicated - if your bishop is only defended by a rook, but the attacker is a queen in front of two rooks, well the queen is more valueable than the bishop and the rook so it would be a bad trade, even if there are more attackers.

Or you could probably just say I'm happy where I am and I dont mind being so bad.

You can learn the Scholar’s Mate, but it won’t work forever, especially if you don’t understand the why behind it.
Avatar of Exotic-Blunders
Because you won’t be able to defend against it either.

And defense is easy.
