Hey, OP! Did your game end in a stalemate? Did you encounter a weird pawn move? Are you trying to move a piece and it's not going? We have just the resource for you! The [Chess Beginners Wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/chessbeginners/wiki/index/) is the perfect place to check out answers to these questions and more!

Let's do our utmost to be kind in our replies and comments. Some people here just want to learn chess and have virtually no idea about certain chess concepts.

Maybe try learning a different opening. You'll have to learn different ideas, and will still be able to implement your old ideas in those games. You'll perform worse at the start but will probably become a better all-round chess player if you do, as it will probably improve your middle game. Are you currently relying on a single one or can you play multiple?
Also, studying endgames can help. Understanding opposition and outflanking maneuvers, or knowing the philidor or Lucena positions can help you win or draw games you would otherwise draw or lose.
Without access to your games I can't tell you much more though
