Getting mature by age?

I feel like I am getting wiser by age.

wiser of course yeah
same here ^^ its great fun

I don't feel that way, because I've always been kind of mature for my age at times, and at others I'm as mature as a shrieking toddler. There is no middle ground for me.

I'm to ridiculous to get mature, although I do have my moments. I've been to this one store a few times, and every time someone's asked if I worked there. I'm thinking about getting a job there just to say yes to those people.

I don't think i mature by age. I think I actually get more immature because i keep acting so stupid compared to my friends. I may actually act older than my age, but that's really rare. Age just makes things so confusing on what you should and shouldn't do when your at a certain age... sigh.

Age complicates things and I love it. Love it.

Time is not the best measuring tool for wisdom, but it does reflect how much you have exposed yourself to the real world. A 14 years old kid (a normal one, not some genius) will look like one for a 30 years old man, but for a 10 years old kid, he is a "senior"

When I entered high school I felt like I lost all the maturity and intelligence I had in middle school. Everything was suddenly not as black and white, the decisions I made could weren't as straight forward. Also I lost the belief that everything my parents said was right.

Now I realize that this year I'm going to be 20...I feel old and not at all wise. Every single time I take a step forward there are new things to block me. As I mature and face new things in life, I realize that I have such a long way to go. When my sister was my age she was already engaged and going soon to be married...I have yet to meet the right guy.

Maturity is not at all straight forward. The more mature we get, the more we realize how immature we are...

Mature? I don't think age changes you. I think experiences change you. Moreover, Hardships change you. When things are going your way, you don't fiddle with things, nor should you. If it ain't broke don't fix it. However, If you don't fiddle you won't learn. That's where hardships come in, it's more likely to get better than worse if you fiddle with it, so you fiddle with it, and learn something from the experience.

When I was 11 I wished I were 15, but now just want to be a child T_T

A person told me that when you want to be 16 when you're 14, then when you're 16 you want to be 18, and so on until you reach an age where you want to be younger again. For me, I don't think people get more mature with age. There are still some immature people who act like little kids or a child at heart. Actually I'm not sure when people really grow up, even I have my times when I act like a kid.

I don't think you get mature by age. I thinks it's by experience and who you hang out with.

If only that were true. I think first you mature then at a certain age you plateau, believing (although you would never admit it to anyone) that you can't mature any more in thoughts and attitude. Life teaches you much.

*shrugs* I think it's more that some people seem more mature than others, because everyone generally inches along their own path slowly so the changes come on gradually. Though I think the whole thing is also sorta overrated.

I think maturity is equivalent to experience. If you live your life and learn the rules of the society, you'll become mature someday. On the other hand it's about how a particular person is being seen by others. You can be a wise boss among your colleges and a silly child for your grandparents at the same time.

PS: They say - with age comes wisdom? But sometimes age comes all alone
