Was trying to checkmate in the middle of the board but had my queen too close.

In these situations I just keep checking, and making sure every move is a check to avoid stalemate. Mate in 1 or Mate in 49 I don’t care I just want the win.
I could’ve brought the king to one of the sides but I saw an opportunity to checkmate in the middle of the board and got too greedy.
Sorry chess noob here. How is this not mate?
The king is not in check, but he can not move either.
Thank you!
Not threatened in check by any piece but can’t make a legal move so it’s a forced draw
It is, just the stale version. Plus what the other comment says.
Same, I often get too eager to close to close the deal and end up drawing.
Haha, you said pee-tard.
