I am having trouble with my car, I am having to put almost 4 quarts of oil in it about every two or three days. The oil light hasn't come on ever and i'm not sure what could be causing it to lose oil like it is

It is either leaking it or burning it. That is a lot of oil. There should be a puddle of oil on your garage/driveway, or a lot of blue smoke coming out exhaust?

A leak that big would be a main seal, or an improperly installed oil filter/loose drain plug.

You will have to inspect it and see which it is (leak, burning).
