I feel like I cannot improve my English anymore...
Today, I talked to a woman in English but I couldn’t understand what she said... I still cannot believe that. I watch YouTube or movies and sometimes talk to people in English. I can understand what they say. But today, I couldn’t understand....😔 I felt so sad. I don’t think she has a specific accent... Maybe, what she said wasn’t familiar for me😢 I lost my confidence... Even though I have learned English for 10 years and my major was English in university, I still cannot understand everything. I lost motivation😔 How do you keep having motivation ...? I know I have to be patient to learn languages, but how many times do I have to be patient? The way I learn English might be bad or I might not learn English so hard. Maybe my attitude is bad. I think polyglots don’t complain like that. That’s why I still cannot understand English totally.

Your writing is very good. It can be difficult to understand what some people say when they speak if their pronunciation is not clear ; even English native speakers sometimes find this. Don't be disheartened, it happens !

Aha! Don't worry about it! You are in the doldrums at the moment with your learning. We've all been there. I've been learning English all my life and still understand only 10% of what someone with a strong accent says*. I don't understand several English accents. Never mind! They probably don't understand me.
*On a good day.

気にしないでください。Even if you didn't understand that one person, you will be able to understand other people! I'm sure you will be able to find a lot of people that you can understand

From my experience, I think you need a great face-to-face teacher or a affortable AI teacher on cellphone who is able to talk with you 24-hour a day at this time.
