Maturity is not measured by age, it’s built by experience.
Comfortable being alone: They are comfortable being on their own and don’t always need friends or people around them.
Accept differences: They accept that everyone is different and will have different opinions. They don’t need everyone to think or act as they do.
Emotional Independence: They are not dependent financially or emotionally on their parents. They tend to make their own life decisions.
Treating others right: They don’t put someone down or make fun of someone because that’s not how they get their self-esteem. They are already confident in themselves.
Taking responsibility: They don’t blame others for their failures and try to take responsibility on how to improve the situation rather than complain.
Listening more than talking: They have two ears and one mouth and they use them in that proportion.
Honesty: They don’t try to deceive or manipulate others for their gains. They lay their desires on the table and it’s okay if other people walk away.
Mature conversations: They like to talk about deep meaningful topics about life and nature with a sense of wonder and curiosity.
Never clinging: They don’t emotionally cling to people and if someone isn’t the right fit for them they aren’t afraid to let them go.
Not chasing: They don't chase money or that new car or someone, they know where true happiness is; in the present.
Maturity is not a destination. It’s a journey.
You can’t say you were stupid in the year 2010 and now a well-mannered individual in 2021.
Because fast forward to 2025, you’ll feel you behaved silly in 2021.
So, you can assume you’re now already mature than you were 10 years ago and on the right path.
But if you wish to accelerate the process or if you feel you need to be even more mature given your life circumstances.

Thank you?...Reduce all kinds of dependency on others (Physical, Emotional and Financial). Even with the family members. When you solve your own problems, your vision broadens and you start looking at life through different lenses.
Don’t fall for impulse. Your mind will always persuade to take easier path and to do activities that gives instant pleasure. Learn how to subdue it and stay calm through mindfulness.
Ask right questions. Asking questions to others is a privilege, so ask deeper questions and on things that are your need of the hour. People would always appreciate you for going beyond the surface of something.
Shed off people from your life, who are often takers and not givers. Some people would associate with you only for the benefits you provide. You learn nothing from these people, so maintain distance.
Set high standards for yourself and don't hang out with people who do not treat you as per your standards.
Fly where the wind is blowing towards you. Basically, do stuffs which are uncomfortable but yields results in the long term - Solving puzzles instead of playing games, Reading non-fiction/Science books instead of novels, Investing money instead of spending it etc.
Surround yourself with harsh critics, but make sure they are the ones who actually care for you.

Do you want to add a word or two?....
It is not possible to just ask a question and judge that the guy is mature or not. Maturity is not a simple or short thing that u learn in one day.
Now come to your question, as to check anyone's maturity you should ask these question;-
What will you do if u rejected by that guy whom you love most and leave no stone unturned to just make him happy?
How will you behave with your uneducated parents if they make any mistake in your official project by mistake?
If someone whom you didn't like just because of his bad behavior, proposed you. How will you refuse his/her proposal?
Somehow your best friend cheated on you just for his/her crush .what will you do?
Some more questions according to your maturity because a mature person can only check anyone's maturity.
Maturity is something that develops after we face experiences in life.
It does not come with age, one can become mature at a very young age.
Your comments?....
PATIENCE: having a lots of patience is the best sign of a mature female.
GRATEFUL: being thankful for what you have. Being grateful for little things in life.
HANDLING A SITUATION PEACEFULLY: yelling and getting angry is not an ideal way to handle unfortunate situation or upsetting scenarios.
RESPONSIVE: think before you respond. Be responsible. Tackling not only your own but also others problems.
Mature women: they possess some really adorable traits.
They handle situations with utmost care and confidence.
Their attitude and simplicity is what adorns them not the heavy makeup that would get washed away.
They prefer to react only in those situations which demand their attention otherwise they just IGNORE the negativity all around.
Understand the importance of being independent. Don't want to sacrifice their career for marriage (in case such a situation exists).
Focus more on self-growth and exploration rather than peeping in others’ lives.
Put forward their thoughts in a righteous way in front of people if others' opinions seem to be WRONG.
They know it very well that people judge but that really doesn't matter until and unless somebody really close does so.
After a certain period of time, maturity doesn't relate with age. Some people grow mature so early while others are just ‘beating around the bush’, never truly discussing the problems , but yes, showing off in front of others how mature they are by uttering some really impressive words!

2 年Few things about Woman vs Girl: A girl needs a boy to feel complete. A woman (or lady) knows she is complete with or without a boy or man. A girl is more concerned with how she looks on the outside. A woman (or lady) is more concerned about her character on the inside. A girl wants attention. A woman (or lady) carries herself in a way that commands respect. A girl believes whatever you say about her, good or bad. A woman (or lady) knows exactly who she is no matter what you say, or don’t say. A girl throws a tantrum when she doesn't get what she wants. A woman (or lady) communicates clearly what is bothering her. A girl is interested in what can be done for her. A woman (or lady) gives as much as she receiv Boy vs Man: A man knows what he wants, and goes for it. A boy may have somewhat of an idea, but not really. He doesn’t think too much about it, and even if he does, doesn’t exert much effort to get it. A boy is passive, a man is assertive. A man plans for his future and is working towards building a foundation and infrastructure in order to have a family (at some point in his life) or another purpose or passion. A boy lives only in the moment and his plans are mostly around which bar he’s going to hit up on the weekend. A man looks for a woman with intelligence, who is supportive, grounded and encompasses a shared set of values when choosing a partner. A boy cares mostly only for girls who are hot, wild and exciting. ? A man knows a good woman when he meets one and will take initiative to get to know her. A boy may make an attempt if you’re lucky, but gives up before ever really trying. A man has the courage to have uncomfortable conversations. He is honest with his intentions and lets people know where they stand. A boy avoids. He ignores confrontation or any serious talks about feelings. Instead of dealing with a situation, he runs away from it or creates drama or excuses to mask the fact he’s not that into you or a relationship. A man knows how to have a good time and be social, but is often busy making strides in his career and building his life. A boy is getting crunk with his buddies at the bar every weekend. A man takes the time to reflect on the type of man he wants to be, the example he wants to leave and the vision for his life. He has put thought into his values. A boy has not established his moral compass or values and consequently, is often inconsistent. A man has integrity. He means what he says, and says what he means. He has follow through and actions his promises. And if he can’t he has the guts to tell you why. A boy makes promises but doesn’t follow through.. A man is afraid of rejection but will put himself out there anyway. A boy is afraid of rejection and acts passive so that his pride and ego won’t ever get too banged up.
