In some ways, very much so. In other waysā¦. Iām a fucking child😂😂😂
Iām pretty mature in the way I handle and perceive most things in life, I think. Or at worst, Iām self-aware when Iām not being mature, haha, itās not like itās just some blind spot.
Where my immaturity comes in is my response to perceived disrespect. I have to learn to walk away. Itās too important to me to for others to respect me through fear. But it kind of gets results, lmao, so Iām torn about it😂 Iāve overheard or directly received a few comments from other guys in my hockey league that make it apparent that itās kind of known that Iām just not somebody to fuck around with, like Iām just wired a little differently than these guys are used to, lmfao. Apparently when I first got in the league people were calling my Happy Gilmore, because I couldnāt skate that well yet but I might straight up try to kill you on the ice if you fucked around😂
Againā¦. all this IS the desired result, not for the rep, but for the peace it hopefully assures. But I also feel like 45 years old is too old for people to see you as the lunatic in a recreational hockey league, hahaā¦but I think people at least know now that Iām a ādonāt start nothing, wonāt be nothingā type, Iām not there looking for trouble.
I guess Iāve just always been in circles that are aggressive and prideful. Like if you disrespect me, I donāt want to come after you for the disrespect per seā¦I want to come after you because you thought it was safe to do it to me, and THATāS the mentality Iām trying to snuff out. And even typing that out, Iām like āthatās kind of fuckinā crazyā, lmao. Certainly not mature, at very least. But I just have this thing in me that Iāve never been able to shake that just says āif anybody fucks with you, send a message, and then no one who witnesses it or hears about it will try to fuck with you in the future.ā
You ask me about just about anything else and Iāll probably be pretty rational😂 Telling you to take a pause, step back and assess the situation, use your āwise mindā, all that. Then in my next game someoneās going to shove me and ask me what Iām going to do about it, and my oh-so-wise mind is going to try to direct me to catch a felony🤦āāļø😂
I think I am, for the most part. Only two things tend to affect it: 1) Is when Iām pushed too far and finally get pissed, I have a hard time getting over it. I can be a stubborn prick, even though the other person is over and done with it. I get that from my father! 2) Iām a sucker for smooth talking and very masculine looking women. They make me feel like a love struck school boy!
Yeah, I do believe I'm emotionally mature. I've always been sensitive to my own and other people's emotions and it naturally came to me to try and understand and manage my emotions in a healthy way.
I've definitely had my moments though where I've let them get the best of me. But I learned from it and worked on it.
I think right now is the most emotionally mature I've ever been.
I'd say I'm improved but I'm not even sure what my standard is for myself. I don't outwardly cause problems anymore but I still feel very petty and childish feelings. So I just have to decide for myself what maturity means - handling the emotions when they happen or not being the kind of person who has those emotions at all?

u yes, I am... I've had to be and I have to be, I've been through things and I've lived a few lives in my life time as well... lol
in some ways, I've always a "bit mature for my age" and this been more in the emotional and mental aspects too... now, being emotionally mature does not mean that one is without fault
being emotionally mature is also about being aware and knowing your flaws, your shortcomings and the weaknesses as well, it is about being ahead of the curve and in the best position to be able to control these not so good thins in all of us, to be able to control these and not let them take over and control us instead...
and, had I not learned to keep myself in check and grow up emotionally and mentaly as well... I just would not be here at all... lol
but here I am, and in the way I am... and people do trust and look up to me to be, among other things... emotionally sound, mature, and I do try my best to keep up with that
I can name my emotions and I know the source of them. But I still can be carried on and react impulsively... I don't think I ever will be mature in this field :D
Completely. I have lots of friends who confide in me about their entire lives because they know they can trust me. I also when driving a Taxi here in London, I picked up people in high government positions, that not only would make your hair curl, but could actually at the time, brought down the government..
Those secrets will never be divulged!
I believe I'm in the middle of them. I have my periods where I'm emotionally immature as heck. And periods where I'm emotionally mature. Especially as I'm trying to deal with past darkness and mental health struggles. So yeah my mind is sometimes like rollarcoaster
I believe so, I try not to let my emotions get in the way of my decisions and I think that's a good thing
I think its one of my main problems if not the main problem of being emotionally immature.
How do you define emotional immaturity by the way?
Iām a rollercoaster
most of the time I am emotionally mature, sensible and authoritative.
then sometimes Iām like a kid and canāt take things seriously which can be very iffy, lol
u Sometimes I think so, other times not so much. I guess it depends on the situation, circumstances, and my mood.
I am mature when I have to be, like when I'm at work around customers. Other times I like to have fun and kid around. When I go through a toy section you can be sure I'm playing with some of the toys and pushing buttons if they have one.
Most of the time, I am an adult. Sometimes, I act like a child... and I enjoy that; it helps relieve stress.
No. I remember when you turned me down in 1999. Haven't gotten over it since.
I have my moments where I act irrationally. And honestly I feel everyone has their moments. This is why forgiveness is important.
that is definitely something i strive for, i suppose i can have my moments sometimes though. im not perfect lol
No. Getting a little better at it, but it's taking a lot of deep thinking and observation of myself.
I am. I think I reached emotional maturity a few years ago.
So far I think so. But you don't know if this might change in the future, and I think it also depends on age and situation
Compared to normal people? Not really.
Compared to GaG users? Yes.
I'm mature till someone wastes my time. I'm not sure why but it really pisses me off when people don't communicate about deadlines and they waste my time and gas money.
Yes I think so. I'm more mature compared to my old years.
