What time control?

If you played in time controls  5|0 or below, skill doesn't contribute as much, and blunders are easier to make. On the other hand, 30|0 games and above give adequate time to think your moves through.

Long story short: Longer time controls make you think more.   ;)

Try playing some rated games. Once you establish your rating you can match up against people around your skill level.
