Default 1997 won't start frequently

Hey guys, I've been having problems ever since I got this car. It seems that if I don't drive it every 3 or 4 days, the battery runs out of juice and I have to jump start it. I'm sure it's not a battery problem because I've had it tested and it's less than a year old. I don't know if there's something that might be causing this or what. I've also made sure that nothing in the car is turned on in attempt to prevent these problems, but I had no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If not the battery, it could be a parasitic drain.
