This is actually an interesting point to bring up – not in relation to maturity, but in relation to language.

I learnt about it when I went to a talk about feminism and the English language and it was pointed out that women tend to be called "girls" even when they're adults because that's the culturally done thing.

I know I have to actively engage my brain to think "woman" instead of "girl" in a lot of situations, and I try to do that now because "woman" is the correct word for a female adult.

So I don't think that the OP is necessarily immature so much as they are simply using English in the way that is considered the social norm. But that's just my two cents' worth.

girlfriend? so no, but a... woman friend? that doesn't sound right. boyfriend? manfriend. just no. It's just a language thing. I know what age I am but I don't talk about my man or my woman because I'm more used to not talking like that. Maybe it'll be different when I'm 50.
