How to be more mature?

Maybe it's just my opinion, but I don't think maturity is something you can force- it comes with life experience, age, and the world around you.

However, there are some things to consider thinking about:

~Think about people you admire, who you aspire to be like. What qualities in them do you wish to have in yourself? How can you go about making changes to have those qualities?

~Identify the behaviours you may exhibit that might make you seem immature, and think of positive ways to combat them.

~Acknowledge and accept that there are always going to be things you don't know. Don't be afraid to admit you don't know something either!

~Remember there is a time and place for everything- there are some occasions that it's fine to be a bit juvenile, but recognise which moments they are, in comparison to moments where you need to be a little more composed.

Those are a few points to think about, but in the end, it's up to you how you choose to present yourself. It's good to find a balance really.

I agree with lex_icon...I was like born mature
I know when to be serouis and when its time for joking...
I'm so mature that where ever I go people think I'm like 20 when I'm not even 15 yet
But I think you should just enjoy life and have fun and take things
That are suppose to be serouis,serouisly

ITS UP TO YOU HOWW TO B THAT WAY ITS WHEN you DO IT NOT WHEN OTHER PEOPLE TELL YOU TO SO YEA WHEN YOU are IS WHEN YOUR

It comes with age mostly. There are things you can do to make sure you're not acting immature. Don't do stupid things just for attention. Don't even worry about being the 'center of attention'. That's probably the number 1 cause of immature behavior.

Don't type all in caps like the person above me. That just shows immaturity, and makes it look as if the person doesn't know how to type. It also shows you(teresa is cool) have no internet ethics. It is considered to be yelling when you type all in caps. Not only that, but it's hard to read and can hurt some people's(like me) eyes to read such mess.

Try to use correct punctuation,grammar, and spelling. It will make you seem a lot more mature and intelligent online at least.

If you're white, and not literally from the heart of the ghetto, don't speak Ebonics. Don't speak at all in a way that isn't natural to how you were raised. Doing so shows that you are trying not to be yourself, and shows a great deal of disrespect and ignorance towards black people.(referring to your profile, muep). I'm from Detroit, and have a lot of black friends, and one of the biggest offenses they take from white people is when a white person that was raised not in the ghetto, by people(parents) that don't speak in such a way, start using their language. It really tends to p*ss some of them off. They(black people) use Ebonics not because they are unintelligent or ignorant, quite the opposite. The speak it because it's their own language, something other races can't steal from them.(At least this is what most of my black friends have explained it as).

It's part of their culture, and trying to imitate it shows a disrespect to that, if you aren't a part of their culture.

Now, if you were raised in the ghetto, it's more tolerable. But muep, you're from Cape Corral according to your profile, so by saying 'Dawg' and other Ebonics terms, you're showing your disrespect and ignorance. You know damn well you weren't raised in an all black neighborhood.

I lived in an all black neighborhood from when I was born, until I was 15. I was literally the only white kid for 3 blocks in each direction. All of my friends at that time were black(or mexican) and I was raised in that enviroment. I still don't speak Ebonics, or fake a black accent(like a lot of the white kids do where I live now, which is predominantly a white area, as I live with my mom). I don't speak it, even though I know it, out of respect for my black friends who take offense to such things.
