Yeah, makes sense... if he does f5, g5 I should also do f4,g4 but I feel a little uncomfortable moving my king pawns when my king is castled king side.
I think it would be probably advisable to castle Queen side instead.

The most principle answer to a flank attack is to retaliate with a center attack, center attacks usually are faster. In your example cxd, bxn to destroy his pawn structure then bring the d2 knight to c5 and eventually d6...
Hey guys,
I've been playing chess for several years and I'm quite a good player but there's something I hate playing against, something that I don't want my opponent to do. Not many people do this, but when it happens I just can't defend and lose the game (or my position gets really bad).
Let me explain:
So let's assume that I'm playing white. I follow Good opening principles, I take center control and develop my pieces and castle King-side. My opponent does the same but after a couple moves he starts pushing his king pawns and start adding pressure to my king-side with moves like f5, g5 until the pawns get really close to my king. I just hate this and don't know what to do.
Can anyone help me with learning how to defend against this situation?
The position I showed is just to illustrate the problem. My opponent exposes his king BUT attacks my king with his king pawns and the closer they get the more I get stressed out.
Anyone can help with this kind of situation? How do you defend against it?
