Be honest

#1 Go for it!Dont mind us usual blunder-ers.
Do u honestly think people don't make blunders?
Try calculating a few moves ahead every move you make...make a habit of it and you will get strong
Do you enjoy playing? If so why quit? Mistakes are all part of learning, surely. You probably won’t make that particular mistake again... so, progress!

And I can say this as a new player rated lower than you, who is still enjoying having a go, even if I do occasionally (ok, very regularly) have to laugh at how silly some of my moves were. If you’re feeling frustrated over it, perhaps take a small break and come back with a fresh mind tomorrow.
@CrassJack why would you quit chess because of a single blunder? Well if you don't mind, in a game I actually blundered the entire game and felt pity for that, but didn't felt quitting chess at all. It is not because of a single blunder then you will need to quit chess. Blunders doesn't necessarily means that you have completely lost the game, blunder means that you will need to check your game, take you time, find what you did wrong and finally, improve yourself and make yourself new.

You aren't the only one that blunder something like this, I have also experienced it, in a game of the Sicilian I was playing as white and blundered the knight on d4 in move 4 or 5, I have found my mistake and I corrected myself for not playing that fast and keep blundering.

And please have this to keep in mind, every single chess game involves one player making a blunder, resulting the another player to win. So that tells you that every single game has a blunder, and it also tells you that you aren't the only one that makes a blunder, but everybody of us, every single one of us, including the chess grandmasters.

Chess isn't a game for perfection, chess is a game just for fun and allows you to gain knowledge, and chess isn't a game for you to quit that early. Keep studying with some help of teachers, opening books, tactic exercises, endgame tactics and/or anything that can help you to improve chess, as long as you don't quit chess.

@CrassJack again, you are not the only one, and you are not alone.
Come back tomorrow and make yourself new.
14 years playing chess and you do that? Yeah, it's obvious that chess just isn't the game for you. I also noticed you played the London, how can you fuck up (not mess up, but totally fuck up) the london? It's the easiest opening to play

The real question is why isn't anyone else telling you the truth? Why do they feel the need to sugar coat it?
I quit playing chess years ago. I blunder too often, so I gave it up.
In the martial art, u can learn someone from dojo or just go straight to the source wudang mountain. My point is can u consider that the way u study chess might be not suits to u right now and making some changes even self taught could be much more appropriate...believe me I'm even studied animal adaptation strategy in the wild consider if it can be used in chess game. That's how I work out on my chess try everything to be strong... If u don't have a will then consider it the end of road
@CrassJack Oh...you still haven’t found an answer.Even after direct messaging several people??Have you completely lost the ability to think for yourself....
In this case, it’s worth repeating that ‘if having ‘low skill level’ bothers you to that extend then just quit’.
hmm I wonder how many are on your block list LOL
I'm in no position to judge but I do think the choice of London System demonstrates your attitude to chess. Grandmasters play London System as a surprise weapon, albeit not so surprising nowadays. Amateurs usually play London System because they are too lazy to research the numerous variations of Indian Defence, Queen's gambit declined, etc.
@Tae7 Ah! you got blocked too? Probably after a sincere exchange on your part? Well thanks for saying it, I'll wear mine like a badge of honor. I wonder, like you, how many of us had that same conversation with subsequent blocking?

@CrassJack should definitely quit. Chess is not for you.
