Try using your right hand to mute the other strings.

As for string skipping (I think that's what you mean), I believe that will only come with practice and time.

I'v had trouble with bends in the beginning as well

Just take one note you want to bend. Bend it SLOWLY and then release it again. Use your right hand to mute the string above. Then, bend it again. Just practice this 5 to 10 minutes a day. I might seem boring...hehe who am i kidding, It is. But if you master this basic thing you can use the bends to create your own licks that will sound cool

Good Luck
