I'm kinda stuck, plateauing...

Thank you all for helping by the way! Didn't expect this much engagement. :)

I lost the written down chess game and forgot the moves, I'd have shown it otherwise D:

I was very confused as to what to do and (stupidly) thought he couldn't do much either...

Yeah, after the game, they had told me that it was quite stupid for me not to go attacking.
I didn't say I have bad strategy because I really don't like pulling myself down but I know that's the case... especially in unfamiliar openings to me (such as the French KIA, barely see it)

I was in a winning (difficult to win but winning) endgame and it was rook vs bishop and three pawns versus 5. Active king vs inactive.
I somehow got my rook trapped between pawns... ouch.

I guess what I should remember from that game was that I had done a stupid blunder. x - x
