You outplayed your opponent then resigned.
It turns out resigning from winning positions is not a good way to play chess.

No one knows, I guess it's a mystery.
But seriously I think you're a troll account and not worth replying to.

I'm not a troll, I legit could use some advice because I'm getting wrecked by people with 400 and lower.

I have more than that one game to hopefully get some idea of why i'm screwing up maybe you can help?
To get a sense of the kinds of things you should be learning in order to improve, check out this article. But take your time. All of this can't be learned in a day, a week, a month, or even many months - it takes years. There is no time limit on chess improvement – but that’s what makes it a great game!

Be sure to check out the section 'Play Longer Time Controls' toward the end of the article.
As a specific recommendation, and starting point in your development, I suggest to read/study this very instructive book...
Pandolfini's Ultimate Guide to Chess by Bruce Pandolfini

Try sitting on your hands or using the confirm each move feature to check for hanging pieces. Mentally force yourself to look at what is a good or bad trade.
Know the relative value of chess pieces:
King: Invaluable
Queen: 9
Rook: 5
Bishop: 3 (but generally accepted to be slightly more, like 3.5)
Knight: 3
Pawn: 1
Just because a pawn has a 1 next to it doesn’t mean you should just give it away. A pawn can change a game.
Hope this helps.

I would recommend to watch a chess principles video, and understand what your opponent wants to do, and why you are moving where you are moving in the first place! I hope this helps! Also, if you are serious about giving up this game I would highly suggest not to give up, and maybe you can get very good at the game if you try!
That’s strange.

Op hung his account instead.
I think I have to set aside my computer and just admit that I'm not meant for this game.
