| I often hear people say "You are old now, act maturely", but what does being mature mean, I know everyone has a different definition, but I'd like to hear what you guys think are signs of maturity and do you think you have those qualities? |
| I am mature, I just don't act like it, because it is boring. This is mostly true on an online interface whereas irl I am mostly calm tho. |

| I may look like a mature person, but I argue with kids Seriously, admitting when you are wrong and able to consider others opinions is a very important quality, most people lack nowadays |
Crow_Black said: I'm an anti social edgelord neetaku kid at heart lol i'm anything but that. So, you admit that you are immature?

Crow_Black said: I'm alot nicer and easiergoing off here than i am on the forums tbh. And i can handle an "l" responsibly instead of mass filing reports on people i don't like over disagreements. Okay, but I'd like you to hear your opinion on what qualities you consider in a mature person? |
| Maturing is being able to look back on your life, and see the things you've learned and improved from. So yes, I agree with the people above too. Being able to see your own mistakes and improving upon it. I am sorry if im not making much sense. English is my second language and I had a hard time making that a good working sentence. |

| Maturity is just an act to flex on your past |
CuckooClock said: It should be emotionally coherent too in that it isn't biased to make someone feel better without benefits existing. I'd like to believe none of us are robots, which in turn would mean that emotional needs must be satisfied, but again, should be coherent and shouldn't go down self-destruction, because that isn't really mature.NextUniverse said: I do not vex at trivial matters and I (usually) think rationally.

| I'd say being respectful, and not being confrontational or making fun of those you deem/want to be inferior. Understanding your place, and not bringing others down who are above (or below) you for valid reasons e.g. parents, boss (for their status rather than their behaviour, but nonetheless wanting to bring people down is a warning sign), because there's no such thing as a hierarchy outside of that unless you yourself make it such by promoting your superiority. For one, you're not above them, they're the one who has responsibility for you unless it's something they have no control over. For two, nobody is any more psychologically superior than another, that's only egotism. The world does not revolve around you. As the person above said, an eye for an eye is pretty immature, as well. It literally leads to nothing but a non-stop spiral of toxicity, and only makes you just as bad, if not worse, than the person you're talking about. I'd say a better thing you can do if you have to do something is: "say they're a shitty person, but don't become the shitty person". There's also the fact that people nowadays are quick to assume bad things about people, lump people into categories to insult and use against them, or get offended over something that isn't even bad, and pretend that it's bad to the point of demonising them. So sometimes the toxicity might not even be double-sided. |

| More often I see people confuse maturity with stoicism. You are mature only when you are content with your life and have no regrets moving forward. You know what you are, you know what you want to do and you know what your motives are. You know your circumstances and you are in control of your mind. You control your wants and desires. You know to what extent your potential in life is. You are mature when you know your way. Not wondering aimlessly in life like a NEET. I don't think behavior has much to do with maturity considering that sociopaths and psychopaths exists and can just act to get what they want. So such manipulative people could act like an asshole or a child, but if they know what they are doing to achieve their desire, they are mature in their own sense. That's just my take on being mature. The world is really big, there is so much to explore. And yet when we come across any coincidences, we tend to think "What a small world". |

| I am mature because I don't jerk myself off on an anime forum talking about how mature I am Wait |

| Mature is not a word I'd use for myself. Though let's be honest, who even is mature. Even the most "mature" person in the world will let go of the brakes and act like a teen when the situation allows for it. Maturity is fake. |
 |
| Depends, my thing is being able to think for yourself and articulate well. ANd being able to be friends with people of different viewpoints. |
