I'm by now sure that it's not a "downswing" why you're losing. totally resistant against any advice and explainations, how do you expect to improve when you have low amount of knowledge and on the other hand you don't care what people tell you? You can keep blowing money the way you are and keep blaming it on your unluck, I'm done wasting my time posting about these topics.

At what BI do you actually play ? or what stakes or whatever...?
Maybe look at the way you play your aces , kings , toppair whatever ..?
------------ And btw if BeMyatmplz offers u any advice i can most definitely say you should accept it and not just take his words for granted to something with em because he is IMO one of the if not the best player on this forum.
------------ Loose agressive donks are a good thing in mtt's , if you get a made hand you will almost in any case make a lot of chips from those loose agressive donks

I tend to play quite some mtt's / sometimes some sng's and i have not really cashed big in those for a while but i do know i have the skills to , just do not tilt or play above what you can afford to lose. and keep looking at your own game , how can i make more value out of my hand or how can i lose less by making un-needed calls or raises in spots where you know there is a fairly big chance that you are behind or may get in a bad spot by like 50 percent of the cards
But guess what? they don't care. They gonna call you anyway. Gosh, they will call all-ins. No matter if ring-game, sit-n-go or MTT. no matter what stage, no matter what stage. Like I said, it's like they have the nuts and they play accordingly.
Then when cards show up for example in All-in situations (Bubble). You be like 'YEEEEESSSS!!!!!!!!' and then BAAAM Runner-Runner *insert monster hand*

Not saying i know everything about poker or that i am a great player but i atleast enjoy the game and it seems like you are not enjoying the game at all man . thats the biggest point try to enjoy it
------------ donks will stay in the game for ever , and so do fishes , the point is try to figure out who the donks and fishes are , tagg them , make notes , chase them , and in the end you will make your money back + take their money aswell

If one best throws you off then first thing you have to do is clearing your mindset befire doing anything. There wont be a single day without you having bad beats. Also keep in mind that poker is a game of %. For example, if you have 10 hands of AK vs. someone else's QJ and you win 7/10 of such runs, then actually you got lucky. That's the important thing in SNGs - if you make money only with showdowns, you wont be successful because there's way too many situations where you can bust. Non-showdown money is at least as important. If you have a table full of loose players, then all you can do is wait for a premium hand and get max. value from it. Basicly that table is heaven on earth. If they draw you out,(and that will happen quite a few times) then just get over it, but they won't all the time.
Calling wouldn't be an option for me. Since he does it all the time and I know that if a A would show up, I would get a hard time it's a push or fold for me.
Also I get (at least a little, because he is a donk..) Fold Equity. He might be a donk but he also knows that I play tight. So maybe, but just maybe, he would fold

Why would you want him to fold A10 pre vs. your KK? Your goal should be to get his stack in (or as much as you can) while keeping him in the hand, not thinking about fold equity in this spot. You will win the hand more than 70% of the time, your goal shouldn't be to win the pot preflop then.
