help me analyse

hey everyone. i played this game against a stronger player than me. i dont think i made any big mistakes except in one of the last moves where a lost my queen but other than that, i was wondering if i can get some help analysing my game?

Looks like a sound well contested game.

Not sure about 12.Be3, if your opponent had played 12...c4, you'd have been on the back foot.

What did you mean after move 18 where you commented "trying to deal with the next move C5'?

no i was playing as black so i guese i should have played c4? 

btw the diagram is fixed :)

Ah, I see!

12...c4 was definitely the move to play , White's Bishop has nowhere to go, so you gain material.

Have you tried 3...Bb4? Also, why did you play 11...g6?

You should already know why he played 11...g6, which is a perfectly sound move.

He asked for "help" btw...

Aaron. move number 12 assuming you are playing in black it was a blunder. c5-c4 and the bishop is lost.

yea after the comments, i realised i should have played c4 thanks for the help :)
