There is always a solution for every situation (the above are just examples of a few). Your job is to recognize your opponent's patterns and stop him with the right responses. Keep doing this until your opponent can demonstrate that he can adapt by changing up his gameplan, then adjust accordingly. To do this, you have to know the frame data for both your character and your opponent's character. Study up in training mode if you encounter an unfamiliar match-up to be ready for the next time you fight that character.
If you really feel like this is too much work, then you might as well save yourself the frustration and quit.
