I'm not familiar with a second piece of rubber. Basically before you fill or put a drip tip on, you'll want to remove the little rubber doughnut from the open end of the carto. If there is a second one in that end, take it out as well. This is assuming we're talking about normal cartomizers (which I'm pretty sure we are) and not clearomizers like CE2s.
There are a bunch of different ways to fill. Do a quick YouTube search for "filling cartomizer X" and replace X with "condom", "drip" or "taryn spin". The condom method seems to be pretty popular, albeit a bit messy, but it works well to saturate the coil which is the most important step to not burning a carto. I'm too impatient for just dripping and waiting for it to saturate down, and I don't like the mess, so I usually do a taryn spin to get the juice down there (think centrifugal force). If you have marker caps that may be laying around, check out the link in my sig for a pretty easy to make taryn spin device.

Much less embarrassing
than a man carrying one in his pocket and it starts to leakthere's the white doughnut which will directly contact the mouth, but i noticed another round doughnut piece that comes out as well which exposes a foam inside. one video i watched recommended removing that piece (which keeps juice from getting into your mouth)
i've tried filling using the condom method (battery side to liquid) and that seems kinda messy and a lot of juice gets wasted.
when using the condom method is it better to to it with the battery side sticking down or mouthpiece sticking down?

Battery end goes in the juice. I don't find this method too messy I use it for my first fill then wipe off the carto and I take my juice bottle and suck any remaining juice out of the "condom". After the initial fill, I just top off through the mouthpiece end.
You'll waste some juice on the initial fill, but as long as you're refilling regularly you should get good life out of the carto. As far as juice in the mouth, put a drip tip in there! Should eliminate most of that issue.
Once it starts pooling it is full. I usually take the top off my juice bottle and blow GENTLY through the mouthpiece end blowing excess juice back into the bottle, wipe and go. Before I started doing this I'd get juice in my mouth, and I still do sometimes if I'm being lazy and don't blow out the carto. The addition of a cheap drip tip has helped to cut down on this a ton too, I just make sure my first few drags are softer than normal.
Oh, and for refills, just drip straight onto the filler. Make sure the filler looks a bit wet every once in a while and you should be fine.
Yeah it is a pain the first couple of times, but you will find a method that suits you and be able to do it in your sleep soon. Just make sure those cartos stay wet that's all that matters.

I have not read the entire thread, But If i understood you original post correctly, you have not smoked cigarettes since you got your kit. right?
If that is correct, then to me it doesnt matter if you spent 100, 1000, or 10,000 bucks on it. You should NOT be frustrated, at all. Just remember your original goal, to quit smoking, if your kit (and your will power) allowed you to do that, then you have succeeded! what is there to be frustrated about?
Dont be "frustrated", be happy!

For sure. Don't waste your time using condom every time, or it will turn into a time consuming mess, just on the initial fill. Top off as needed by dripping directly onto the filler, until it looks like slushy snow, give a gentle blow and repeat until it keeps that slushy snow look then you are full.
One of my friends has mentioned that piece before, but I have never received a carto that came with the second piece. He just discards them and uses a drip tip, but if you prefer the vape with it in then leave it in. Just seems like it would be a pain to remove every time you refill.
I have never seen that second piece either. I agree with Imavaper though, leave if you need it or like it, or remove if you don't. I would at some point invest in a couple of drip tips then just toss those junky little ring things. You can find cheap tips for as low as .99 I know Madvapes has a few nice looking cheap acrylic tips for 1.99.
I busted out one of the cartos from the other package to see if they had the extra ring and they didn't so I took out the ring on the 5 I just opened. I can see now how refilling is MUCH easier without those things in there.
I'm learning.

Those cheap ones that come with the kit have that extra donut inside. Trust me when i say you wont have this problem with the Boges and other high quality cartos. I experienced the same thing.
