I really don't think your situation is so bad.  I still think you could win.  This is the first time I feel we have a chance, honestly.  But if you still wish to resign, I understand.  If yes, then do you want to pick up the other three player game I suggested?

 I thank you for your positive view, but it is only a matter of time before you both realize the strategy that will allow you to gain any piece you should desire from my side. You have begun down that path so there is no further likelihood that you will not see it within a few more moves. There is a basic flaw in that the King cannot afford protection to any single piece without that piece already having protection. To protect each piece therefore requires 2 moves...2 moves for every 4.

Short of fantastic luck it cannot be done.

As for the other 3 player game, I would be quite interested.
