A guy can be funny and silly and still be mature.  However, if they are always preoccupied with lowbrow humor, that's probably a sign of immaturity.  Not a definite sign, but a possible one.  They need to be able to have an intelligent conversation, behave in public when it's required, and commit to a girl when the relationship has potential.  Morals and ambition, like you mentioned, are also very important.  I think you're fine :-)  Just make sure that you are comfortable being yourself instead of always trying to impress people with your sense of humor.  Don't be afraid to talk about serious things, like *gasp!* your real feelings.  :-)

depends on the individual...no one can be judged whether they are mature/immature based on what gender they prefer...

Yes.  It is better for a woman to date a guy who is older because of the differences in maturity, but if a woman is okay with that, there is nothing wrong with it.

well you could look at it two ways\n-either he's mature because he respects women and doesnt want to go agains their will\n-or he's immature relationship wise and doesnt really know what he's doing

think of it this way. when guys have their mid-life crises, they go for younger women..preferably 18-mid20s.  \n\nso that means 18 year old girls have not only their peers, but men of ALL ages who want them.\n\nso, 18 year old girls can really have anyone they want.

Older, I like someone who is ahead of me, and is a little ahead of the curve. I like someone who has already done some of the "been there, done that" things such as college, etc. Maybe I just like that someone has a year or so on me, and has more life experience. But there's also still that cultural norm that the guy is older than the girl.

Men mature slower than women. Sorry to say, some boys are like that in college too. However, they do mature, sooner or later. It seems like they are so childlike because us girls have matured earlier so their acts seem childish.

If you like an older guy, you have to be up to his level in maturity.  Older guys really don't like to hang with immature girls, from my experience that is.  And I am not just talking sex either, conversation is a big factor in a relationship

its normal,i would think its best to date some one who is at least 7years older than you if your thinking about a serious relationship,you wouldn't expect the sort of control and authority from some one your age which you would find from some one older.therefore your its absolutely normal and your on the right track

Well in my opinion a mature person is one who always takes responsibilty for their actions, has good manners, and learns from their mistakes.

I myself am not inclined to date a guy more then a year or two younger then me. The stereotype says that young men are immature and while it does have it's truth I think it's more about life experience and I couldn't handle a guy that not on my level. I am not saying relationships with large age gaps don't work, just that I would pass on that scene. On the flip side women are sometimes attracted to older men, again that whole stereotype that older men are more mature. For one that's not always true and in most cases older guys looking for younger women are just using them for sex and half of those guys are still married. I guess what I am trying to say is they have to much baggage. They have been screwed over by too many other women generally and so again not that those relationships don't work out but I have no intention on venturing there either.

Why sure, go for it. My boyfriend that I have been with for Almost four years now, and our relationship is still going strong, Im like 21 and he's 23. Some people say girls mature faster than men, which I think is so true. But I really don't think age matters unless there like a minor or something, but hell yeah go for it.

When I was 16 I dated a man who was 30.  Men don't mature as fast as women.  At 16 I was in college full time so don't get all statuatory on me.  I matured a lot faster than guys around my age and had a lot more general knowledge than them also due to being in college.  So I think that it is not so much age as experience and knowledge that is more important.

well, i guess guys in high school are more mature and good looking.... i myself prefer guys older than me coz guys my age are too childish... studies show that girls mature faster than guys... Probably that's the reason why girls at that age dig guys that are in high school....
