A see-saw battle

Here is a game I just finished, which is the first that I didn't win or run out of time in. When we started, he was rated 200 points above me, but by the time we finished 32 days later, he was 90 points below me. The game ended in a draw, but I could easily have won. Or lost.

 

Please give me your feedback as to what I should or shouldn't have done. And if anyone finds me easy to beat after watching this, feel free to challenge me and we can setlle this like men. Or man and woman. (Note: I am not implying that I am a woman. I am merely stating that I do not discriminate. I am ready to beat anyone of any race or gender).

D-oh! Why didn't I see that? I was playing for the fork. I planned the fork in the next move, but seeing his rook on a1 made me instinctively kill his rook.

There are lot of mistakes but I concentrate only on some of them, by white.3.Qa4 or even Qd8 instead of Qf3 where it blocks bishop and is situated awkwardly and easy to be attacked soonChanging both active bishops in moves 11 and 12 does not make sense16. Ra1? There is not much point in this move. However, considering the next moves by black that was not THAT bad after all.21. Nh5? – Letting his rook inside your pawns.26. Kg1 – it is definitely much better than 26. Nxg4??  Rh1+, losing the rook

Um... the fork puts black in check.

A very good game ajachi. Though there were moves that i disagree but i understand that decision(s) made was all influenced by a player's attitude and strength. Thanks for sharing.
