So I'm a pretty confident guy. For the most part I just do and say whatever I want to do. But I'm starting to notice a pattern. People keep saying I'm immature. Besides the way I dress(which doesn't give off that impression at all) what could I possibly do to seem more "grown up"? Just had this really cute girl cut me off telling me I need to grow up.

Might be asking in the wrong place, but let me hear your opinions.

immature is always when someone acts like a young right? then stop acting like a young and act like an adult.

maybe that person calls you immature just to provoke.

or you just don't care what people say about you. there is nothing more mature than that.

Asking about that on an anime forum made mostly of NEETs shows your immaturity.

Maybe they are right? This is not about how you dress but how you express yourself and behave. Being too confident can also show your immaturity, like the people who say that they can perform a task in two hours while it takes 3 days to most people. You are simply not being boring enough. Perhaps you even had the terrible idea of looking happy in public, no wonder that the fools were offended by such insolence against the public morality.

Don't let peoples opinion affect you. What you want to do/wear do what you like/interest.

If someone told you that anime is for kids, would you beleive that? Tell whoever is telling you are mature and do not need their opininons

Yea maybe I need to grow up and stop asking questions like this on anime forums. Idk....they don't really know I go on here and I like it here so idc. If the advice is good it shouldn't really matter where I got it from.

I can't concentrate with GIFs
By "I just do and say whatever I want to do", that doesn't exactly mean that you're mature. It depends on what it is, but from the way you worded it (as in, with other people) you sound like a child who doesn't like authority, kind of the "you can't tell me what to do!" type.
You could also be saying things that people do not like that much, and may be invasive or rude unintentionally.
There are many ways that people can be immature, so I'll assume that it's because of the attitude or responses you make.

In order to look/seem/be mature, you have to erase every single part of your sense of humour. People hate humour. This world has turned into a dry desert and everyone will eventualy be sucked into the darkness of the sand.

So who cares if you are "mature" for a few days. In the end it won't matter. The SAND WILL swallow us ALL.

Politics 110
Social Awkwardness 140
Ecchi 150
Cringyness 210
NEET 213
Ecchi 250
Depression 300

Trolling and Insulting Others 340

Hmmm.. My parents always kept on saying I was immature for simply wanting to have fun. They were always like "Don't you have better things to do?"

I would say that a mature person would be someone who is realistic and rational, and who would take their responsibilities. For instance few months ago, I had a flirt with someone much younger than I am.. Until they ghosted me without any explanation. That, I found it to be immature (But the trash has been taking out itself, so I don't mind).

Maturity probably comes with experience, with trying to improve in your behaviour and as a person.

Maturity is all about responsibility, well but responsibility of what?

You fucked up? Be responsible and don’t blame it on anyone.
Oh something bad happened? Do something about it and stop complaining.
Just ate? What are you doing letting other people wash your dishes?

Be responsible for your actions, apologize if you really did something wrong.
But don’t apologize when you know you haven’t done anything wrong, this is important.

Made someone pregnant? Take care of that child. Don’t run away.
Why independent people looks mature is because they're responsible for their life.

People are also fragile, so you have the social responsibility to watch your words carefully.
You can be honest but not outright rude:
You look absolutely fugly on that dress.> That dress doesn’t suit you, I think this one looks better.


Your thoughts and emotions? Take responsibility, don’t be a slave to it.
It’s the reason calm and composed people seem more mature.

Having fun and partying, or being quiet and serious doesn’t have anything to do with being mature.
Someone can be a party addict and have all these qualities, while a quiet, serious person don’t.

The thought that you have to repress your emotions, don’t have fun, don’t smile, being serious is absolute bollocks. You can imitate those but you’ll never be truly one if you don’t have the qualities above.

Step 1:

Don't make threads asking how to be more mature

Also a grill telling you to "grow up" sounds like much more of a problem than simply being immature lmao what'd you do fam?

I mean doesn't being "immature" have it's advantages.

I believe having/training your self-control is one of the best ways to be more mature. I guess being responsible and have more responsibilities will make you seem more mature.

You made fun of her so calling you immature was a natural reaction. Making fun of people is generally not seen as a sign of maturity.
