Chess is one of those games that takes a few days to learn and the rest of your life to master, and most new players, whether they be adults or scholastic players, learn very early on that losing a significant amount of material is a sure path to disaster.
Things are completely different if you enjoy chess as a slow steady buildup of your forces, marshalling your pieces as if you were on a two-year plan for the invasion of Normandy and then gradually grinding your opponent into a king and pawn ending.
Losing to stronger players is not completely a bad thing as long as you rigorously analyze your games afterwards, either with your opponent, your coach, or just your friends at the local chess club.
