I've literally been playing for a year of chess and I have a chess tactics rating of 1412 on chess tempo and i beat the 1500 rated computer easily but yet im losing to 1200 rated players, mainly because i am blundering quite often  I honestly think i've lost my abilty in chess because ive had some really good games about a month ago I was beating 1300 rated+ players but now all of a sudden magically im sucking terribly in chess because im losing to like 1200 rated players. And I hate it because the fact that i used to be good in my opinion and now I'm all of a sudden sucking and throwing away my games due to foolish stupid and idiotic blunders.

When a player starts improving strategically... learning new middle-game principles, for instance... they often find that their in-game results go down for a while. That's because they need time to integrate the new weapons into their existing arsenal of strategies and tactics. After a month or two, their results go back up and stabilize at a higher level than before.

... or maybe you just suck. Who knows?

I would opt for the first possibility, though, not the second one.
