    So I bought this plant and it didn't say what kind it is. I think it's dying and I need to know if there's some important care thing I'm missing. If anyone can tell me what kind of plant this is, it would be greatly appreciated.

    I can't really see the image (130 x 97 pixels is all we get?), but my guess would be a variegated <I>Tradescantia spathacea</I>. The common name is "oyster plant" or "moses in the cradle."
