How can I fix my emotional immaturity?

[foxsquirrell]

Well, first of all what is emotional immaturity exactly?

But even if I do not find it that easy to define, I think that I am emotionally immature.

Not sure why. Maybe because I did not socialize enough, or something else.

Anyone relates, or can explain?

People with emotional immaturity tend not to recognize that they have it. Self-reflection usually requires maturity.

Why do you think you're emotionally immature?

[foxsquirrell]

Finding it difficult to acknowledge other people's point of views unless it is about a technical thing.
Extreme jealousy when it comes to girls. In the sense that if I have an interest in a girl I make her mine in my head and I can't deal with others flirting with her and such. And I would take such flirting if it happens around me as a sign of disrespect, provocation, and challenging.
Easily upset if people mock me even slightly, and I tend not to forget, black list and forever avoid anyone in this category since punching them would get me into big trouble and big expenses. (defense lawyer for example)
Difficulty to understand my own emotions.
These are the things that came to my mind.

Have you been to a therapist before in your life? I'm of course not qualified to diagnose you with anything, but some of those qualities have an association with Asperger's. In any case, sometimes the problem can be helped with cognitive exercises, and sometimes it takes a more aggressive approach. The fact that you KNOW what's going on and have the reflection necessary to address it would make you a perfect candidate for therapy. Lots of people have the opposite problem where they WOULD change if they believed they had an issue, but they'll never be humble enough to admit it to themselves or understand it.

Interesting. I have been just one time to a therapist on my mother's insistence. I forgot exactly why she wanted me to go, and I remember only bits of the conversation with the therapist. I was much much younger, and going now would be better as I have more experience about myself. Need to find a good one though. In Malta its not a very popular thing I think, and so it is more difficult to find a good therapist I think.

I wish you the best of luck with it. Its difficult to find mental health care in my country as well but it can help a lot. It helped me too.

Why don't you see a counselor?

[foxsquirrell]

Not a bad idea.

Independent trained perspective should be helpful…
