I know, after the first two beats, there is an 'and' that's an eighth note. Do I add that really fast to the one two or really fast to the third beat?

View each measure as one-and-two-and-three-and. So then the dotted quarter note would take up "one-and-two".

If I understand you correctly, you have:
A quarter note, followed by a dotted quarter note, followed by an eighth note.
The first quarter note takes up the "One and"
The dotted quarter takes up the "Two and Three"
The final eighth note takes up the last "and"
For a dotted quarter note, you don't hit the note again for the dot, you keep on holding it. So if the first quarter note is held for one entire beat, the dotted quarter will last for a beat and a half long, as one solid note. Then the final eighth note would last for half of a beat.
SO the dotted part of the second note is taking up the first half of the third beat.

The dot on a quarter note adds half the value again - so it's a quarter plus and eighth

when you're dealing with notes that fall or end on the off ("and") beat, break down the beats in the bars into halves like you're been doing. (so in 3/4, it's "one and two and three and") when dealing with notes that fall at half that again, put in something in between each part of that (I was taught "one-ey and a two-ey and a three-ey ect" just because it's easy to get your tounge around when you're thinking about it)
grab a pencil and mark in the beats with big vertical lines, then the beats in between them with smaller vertical lines, and so on.
The quick answer to your question is that a dotted quarter note goes for threequarers of a beat long. (so "two-ey and a-"*next note*" so itdoesn't quite get to the three)

without specifying something yet eighths, in 3/8 time, an 8th observe gets one beat, inspite of the metronome marking, and in 3/4 time, it would get a million/2 a beat, the quarter observe getting one beat, additionally inspite of the metronome marking x

It's held to a one and two. I hope this helps.
