For many people, chess is a fun casual pastime. When you look at it objectively though, it is arguably one of the most soul-crushing, depressing, and just utterly evil games ever invented. I just lost some 70 rating in the mater of 3 days, and have been through more than a dozen tilts in the past 3 months. Have you ever crashed out over chess? If so, how lol.

Losing a game can be annoying, especially when it's due to at least one silly mistake we've made. Just remember that every mistake made and every game lost is a lesson, and any rating points lost are the price we're paying for that lesson.

Yes, once I think it was because I hang queen so stupidly that I am angry at myself, because of that I forgot to press resign and instead quit the app.

Chess actually calms me down. Win or lose, I enjoy the beauty of the game.

It happens to everyone including me as well.

Yep, especially when I blunder a simple move or mis a obvious opportunity to win.

#19. Everyone blunders at chess including grandmasters. It's really not the end of the world.

I remember yesterday during my bullet frenzy rush. I got a checkmate by a Scholar Mate. I was thinking, 'How the heck did that happen?' and I'm not advanced enough to fall into that stunt. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
