Search Results: changing my ways

I don't think it's really possible to truly become emotionally mature until anyone has started to live independently and forced to make compromises, communicate, and collaborate effectively with others that they don't like. So I kept it in the adult range, as it's not too likely that anyone too young is considering consequences it's relatively easy to avoid those things before becoming an adult.


For the men: what age range have you noticed changes during your day to day interactions, dating, work, etc.

For the women: same as above, or with the additional of your own testimony, and what life occurrences would you say has resulted in the biggest growth in emotional maturity? That last part is the most important.


This question isn't asked out of malice, I'm just curious. I've seen women younger than me be very considerate of the thoughts and emotions of those around them, meanwhile others older show contempt for anyone that goes against them in some way. Is there a point that most flip, or is it a life experience (and men and women live very different lives, hence splitting the question)?

Had[36M] a successful date last Wednesday, ending with a kiss and also a French one. I left her[31F] with 'lets keep in touch.' But no message was sent from her either on Thursday or Friday, so I texted her yesterday (Saturday). I asked her out for the coming week, but she said she will be super busy the whole week... but this week she was available all days.. So In my eyes, a wishy-washy excuse oooor maybe she do are busy..

Then I said: 'That's too bad, maybe we should take it some other time?'
She answered: 'I'll be sure to get in touch after upcoming week!'
Good, maybe she will, maybe she won't.. time will tell.

But either way I smelled something fishy was going on here (hot and cold), so I checked her FB (we were already chatting on messenger), and found out her FB-status was 'in a relationship' with no person connected to it..

How big of a deal is a FB-status these days, maybe people aren't changing these anymore or are lazy/sloppy to keep it to date?
She's still very active/online on the datingapp where I met her, so I do suspect a some sorta of flag with red'ish shade here..

What am I supposed to do, IF she gets in touch?
Is she monkeybranching or actually single, what's your guess?
