this was a game i had the other day, i was white. i'm not sure what i did wrong until the game and i was hoping u all could help me out. i resigned after the last move made because material loss was inevitable

simply put, i'd say too many pawn moves not enough piece development. Besides move 2 (i generally play exd5 rather than e5), you got alot of room but you got your pawns over extended and your pieces too passive. This is why your opponent was able to gobble up your kingside. Notice neither of your rooks nor one of your knights had moved, but none of your pawns are on their original starting squares. And given what happened to your king, I think you can see that castling is a wise way to protect them. The move h3 driving away the enemy knight weakened your kingside so you didnt want to castle later for fear of the knight fork of your queen and your rook. And it didnt really accomplish much, you would have been fine playing Nf3 instead of h3 that move.

 Hope this didn't sound too critical, those were just my observations of the game without any real indepth analysis. 

I think you summarized the game in a clear fashion, mueller!

mueller, thinking about it, u have hit the nail on the head. i see exactly what u are talking about and i do agree.. thank u

I'm totally agree with mueller. I just would like to add some remarks:

3.f4     opens a dangerous black-squares diagonal on the king. It's not a "wrong" move, but since now just take care of your kingside
4.Qf3    pulls off the best square for g-knight and develop too early the Queen, that now could be more easily attacked
10.Bxg4  is not good, because you change a good bishop a keep the bad one
11.h3    is not usefull. in this moment you lose the chance to recover the big delay of development
13.b4    same comment than 11.h3

and for the following move...it's not wise to move forward your pawns and open lines if your development is delayed.even more if the lines are opening
are those on your king!

hope have been somewhat useful :)

1) You didn't castle. By move 23 your K is feeling a draft.

2) Your moves 21-23 help him to move pieces towards your K! On 22, his knight moves over in response to a B trade.  23. c4 kicks his N to f4.

3) You didn't ever move/develop your queenside R and N.
