I think of chess in terms of baby steps. Crawl, walk, run! There's gonna be a lot of falling along the way but...
Never give up - that's my philosophy. And I am at the crawling stage in my chess journey still.
Most people are too lazy and don't have that strong spirit to keep pushing. And I will keep pushing no matter what. Takes a special kind of crazy but hey! 😀

Please, everybody knows that eventually you will get insulted on the Internet by someone who has absolutely zero relevance in your life. You can have some fun and troll him back, or you can simply ignore him. But to become all sensitive and sad?? Pfff that is called immaturity. I am not sad. just thought this place didnt have that kind of people..it is chess not call of duty. lol and I did say things back to him which were far worse..surprised he did not report me

Don't let one person destroy your enjoyment of the game. There are other people who will encourage you or even chat with you. Just block the offending person and move on. The Internet makes it easier for people to call you names without risking being punched in the face, so it brings out the worst in some people (but not most people). I'm feeling a little stuck now in switching from 1. e4 to 1. d4, but I figure losing games is part of the learning process. Have fun, learn, check out the cool "Lessons" here on this site.

you can laugh i dont care. i am just depressed all the time dude
It is really sad that at 11 years you did not care about what some random Internet dude told you, but at 30 you get all depressed because of that.
I really don't know if laugh or feel pity for you.
First of all, this is the internet. And even in serious over the board tournaments you will find a couple of douchebags sometimes, I can assure you. It's only one more game.

I just gotta relax that is all. I appreciate all the advice and what not. I just get frustrated..and like others said...people ruin your enjoyment and I think that is what made me upset. It has nothing to do with age or maturity...I just figured chess players kept things cordial lol.

"I just figured chess players kept things cordial lol." Find your local chess club. People don't talk so much smack in person.

Chess.com needs more players like you! Really impressed with your behavior!
It's difficult for anyone to tell you if you have or don't have the "right mind" for chess.
What I can tell you is that you don't have the right attitude.You need to play long time control games and develop a thinking process.
You need to analyse them and find out what you could do better.You need to do tactics , followe the opening rpinciples and do some fundamental endgames.If you doall these consistently for more than 6 months and you don't improve then you might be right.If you do them for another 6 months and you don't improve the chances are that you are right , you don't have the right mind for chess.
If you haven't abandon chess yet , message me.Maybe I can't help you but maybe I can.We will play a couple of training games and I will show you how to think.We were all beginners , we all had the same problems you have and we found a way.If we can , you can.

And ignore the losers. There's only one way to be a loser in chess, and it is being disrespectful with the opponent.
Good!
And then there's the "disable chat" button - hit it at the first sign of abuse.
Some of these people are simply trying to shake you off your balance, so that your chess suffers. It's a trick - but a rather dirty and unpleasant one.
"Disable chat" takes care of that. After the game you should also "block" that person so that he can never play with you again (except in tournament) or contact you in any way.
"I don't care!" Cure of all problems😒😒
I know how it is. There are a bunch of toxic players in your elo. I barely see anyone now that I got a higher rating. But, sometimes I meet these bad losers. Which is fun of course. You destroy them both mentally and in chess

You find these players also in the 2000 and 2100 zone - and probably also in higher areas.

Just play chess for fun, you can always block chat anyway if you want to, with me what irritates me is when you congratulate your opponent on them winning a game they just blank you, which I really find rude, as for negative chat which you have experienced I just have a quiet chuckle to myself
I am awesome and a kid!
