I can't believe no one has anything to say.
First draw with an >2000 player!
I'm not too familiar with this opening but im curious were you prepared for this opening line beforehand?
Im guessing yes because the engine approves of both you an your opps play saying you both only made 1 inaccuracy and less than 7 centipawn loss, so it seems like you were both following some theory to a draw

Wasn't really "theory". The endgame after the queen trade is said to be fine for black. I offered him like 5 other draws before (starting at move 40), but he declined until the last one.

Be7??
At least know the theory of the opening you're playing, this is so basic.. In case you aren't already aware, the correct move is Be6. Any half-competent expert would've crushed you after such a dumb move. However, your opponent obviously wasn't, because he went into an extremely drawish line against a 1600. As far as I can see, your opponent and you both played ~1400-1500 level chess. If all 2000s played like this guy, I'd be at least an NM by now. Anyway, as someone else said, get a win against a 2000+. This isn't impressive.

wait, so you knew it was fine for black, but you didn't know anything past the queen trade? you do realize you actually have to know what you're doing for it to be fine for black, right? you can't just play it and figure it out as you go along...
My best draw yet!
