I don't want to tell you what you don't want to hear, but I will anyway.

Practice practice practice!
If you can beatmatch with kickdrums, then just keep practicing, you're 90% of the way there.
Listen to the hi hats. Listen to the snare drums, and listen carefully. You're just used to listening to kick drums. Get out of your comfort zone.

You should be practicing your mixing, not posting on DSF, cos nobody will be able to help you much over the internet unless they tell you to go back and keep practicing!

Good luck man, keep at it!

nodding helps, also try counting the bars in your head (eventually it will become 2nd nature) gl
