[Edit]All About Maturity

What is maturity?
Maturity is the ability to act both emotionally and mentally like an adult. Mature individuals aren’t just tuned into their emotions—they’re able to communicate their feelings in a healthy and respectful manner and acknowledge how other people are feeling and thinking as well.

Signs That You’re Emotionally Mature

  • You can comfortably separate your emotions from your sense of self. It’s easy for you to acknowledge that your feelings are separate from your identity. For instance, you can feel sad once in a while but that doesn’t make you a “sad individual.”
  • You can accept constructive criticism from others. You have no difficulty taking a person’s feedback in stride and recognizing it for what it is. When people give you constructive criticism, you don’t take it as a personal attack on your character.
  • You can understand how different emotions develop within your body. Maybe you feel a sinking sensation in your gut before you feel sad, or your face gets really flushed whenever you feel angry. Whatever the case, you’re in sync with yourself and understand what your different bodily cues mean.
  • You can communicate your own feelings in a healthy way. Instead of bottling up your feelings, you let other people know what’s on your mind in a respectful and honest manner. You’re able to do this without pinning the blame on someone else.
  • You’re good at keeping your cool in different situations. No matter what the situation, you refuse to lash out at others as a way of coping. Instead, you can generally keep a level head in most scenarios.
  • You take accountability for yourself. You have the grace and humility to own up for your actions in the event that your emotions do get the better of you. During your apology, you don’t blame others for your behavior.
  • You stay tuned into other people’s needs. You’re great at identifying how other people are feeling and are good at checking in to make sure they’re okay.
