How the hell do I get better at PVP?

Seriously. I absolutely suck. I've tried watching videos, tried playing more, etc, but I just get absolutely wrecked. I just tried trials and got absolutely destroyed. I WANT to enjoy PVP, but I'm terrible at it. Edit: just went 0-3 in Trials. Yay! Edit 2: I REALLY didn't expect to get so many replies! Thanks for not being nasty about it and actually being helpful. I'm always open to learning. If someone wants to actually get into a game with me I'm more than happy to absorb anything you have to teach me. Edit 3: damn. 250 replies. I really didn't expect this to get any attention. I expected it to get lost amongst the "if you didn't get 9-0 in trials you are trash" posts. Thanks, guardians! Edit 4: Wow. Almost 700 replies. I am amazed. I'm amazed that this got so much attention, since I really just posted it out of frustration at making a stupid mistake and costing my team a match (they got mad, yelled at me, then blocked me off Xbox Live), and I'm also amazed and how overwhelmingly supportive everyone has been. I really appreciate all the tips, everyone, and I'm taking them all into account. I'll be spending a lot more time in the crucible training. I know I'm still a noob and I make mistakes all the time. I'm glad these forums have decent people still in here, even if you're all lurking in the shadows. Edit 5: Holy. Crap. 1000 replies. You guys are amazing :) Edit 6: I'd like to thank the few guys I ran Trials with today for getting me to the Lighthouse. I know it must have been tough, and I didn't always hold my own very well, but I tried hard, and I feel like I got a lot better because of it. I don't want to put your names because I don't want you to get slammed with messages like you did earlier. Again, thank you :)

    Couldn't be bothered to read all replies so don't know if someone has said this but anyway: Find a weapon you do well with and stick with it. Sometimes it can get boring but if you want to do well you have to get good with at least one weapon, then change and try something new. I recommend either the Red Death (don't rush the enemy / aim just below the head since you will recoil up) Or... Vex Mythoclast (use aggressive ballistics, the recoil is harder to manage then smart drift control but you WILL get used to it and then you can melt thorns/last words/hawkmoons. If you use SDC you will find it easier to land more headshot but the lesser impact means if the opponent lands their headshot you will die. Using AB means you will need to practice but once you learn to land headshots it doesn't matter what they do as you will still kill them) NOTE: Exotic handcannons are insane BUT using a Handcannons in pvp is a lot more difficult and requires high skill so if you "suck" you should avoid them.
