After my pard went down (I dont think that that was unusual for this hand) he said I should pass 1NT, we had no agreements so I played 2 diamonds as natural


Scoring: IMP


West North East South

- - 1♣ Pass
1♠ Pass 1NT Pass
2♦ Pass 2NT Pass
3NT Pass Pass Pass

you shouldn't pass 1NT
and you shouldn't treat 2♦ as natural, it's nonsense

Huh? 2♦ is a new suit, ergo natural... I bid 2♦. You managed to reach game with 26 HCP. What's the problem? Partner is resulting.

your partner's picture should be taken for the Bridge Dictionary "result merchant" article.

3♦. 2♦ is not forcing. Heck, if p had been smart enough to pass 2♦ the result merchant would have been happy.

wow

I can believe that it might be natural, but a new suit (minor) by an unpassed responder is NF?

whatever system that is i need to not play it.
