This was my first non-loss against futuregm23. Anyone think I am coming close to a win? Any mistakes on either side you noticed?

Qd3 so early is not good. Devlop preferrably Knights and Bishops first.

You castled queenside and fianchettoed kingside. Why? Queenside castling typically calls for kingside attacking. Though the concept is seen in the Queen's Indian. You really didn't have a plan. Plans are important to winning.

Is my second draw against him. The game is still going on, but the board is way too locked up. Would you not agree?

Don't ask for opinions on active games!

Yeah, you were right, he penetrated and won. Let's stay on the first mentioned game.
