I know this is going off topic, but hearing you tell other people to grow up, I just have to say something. I HATE it.
It may be that I'm incredibly childish, and have been told to grow up almost all my life, but I really lose a lot of respect for people who say it.
Why should someone else tell me how grown up I am, and what being mature means, and that I need to be more mature? I don't see the point.
Children should be allowed to be children. Play around, screw up a few things while it's still minor. If you make people grow up overly fast, they'll screw up big time later.
Case is, you'll never have as much fun as when you're a child.
As long as you don't do anything serious, you should only hurt (mentally) the other person slightly. You'll see how things work, and learn for yourself. Being slightly guided and be allowed to do what you want is in most cases far better than being told what is right and wrong, and not seeing the reasoning completely.

Put it like this - are you mature? Do you have 10-15 years of experience to back up your claims? If you want to learn via trial and error - and be a complete ass and have no girls at your school want to be in the same area code as you, cool. Sure, we could be lying to you, but why would we? The OP told us something - and we offered our advice. When you agree with it, you are happy - but when you don't agree, you are confused.
Fact of the matter is, the vast majority of girls will make exceptions for jocks or really cool guys. They often never mature. There's no need to - because the girls accept them for that. They will lax their standards for *extraordinary* guys (And I use that term very, very loosely).
For the average joe, they need to attract attention to themselves. Acting rude or like an ass is so grade schoolish.
You don't have to believe anything we post. Based on the fact that D21Lewis has hit most of So. Cal and I have been swimming in so much Tang I could be an astronaut, and countless others, we have been there, done that.
As far as having fun as a child - please. I hated high school. I so much love my life now. I can buy whatever I want - I have a sweet whip and a bangin' system - I have a vast majority of video games and systems I have wanted (I am collecting retro systems now) and a ton of possesions and the ability to travel to anywhere in the world I want to - having a bangin' wife and kids - and review video games for one of the biggest newspapers in the country? Hahahaha ...
No, the only way I'd trade my life now to go back to middle school is if I could have all the knowledge now and put it into my younger body.
You really should see how I roll, son. I have a blast on the daily. I live my life like it's my last.
