Psychology of age
At the age of 20, a person begins to understand all the responsibility that he has received, and the freedom of action that has arisen at the same time. This is a time of experimentation, self-searching. Models of behavior are developed and experience is gained: life, work, emotional. Young people choose unconventional ways to understand the world. By doing this they are trying to prove their uniqueness and make their dream come true.
20 years is called another crisis. He manifests himself in searching for his place, his favorite thing. During this time, a person may move from one faculty to another, from university to university, from one job or position to another.
The “I must” program, which society forces, and the “I want” program collide. If a person understands and accepts both of these programs, harmoniously unites them in his aspirations, he becomes a responsible member of society, who simultaneously carries out activities that attract him and benefits society.
More secrecy in relationships
Photos of lovers on social networks are cute. But not when there are hundreds and thousands of them on one person’s page. This is why you shouldn’t post a photo of every kiss you kiss on Facebook. There is no need to tweet about your every move. Keep your relationship in relative secrecy, and you and those around you will not soon get bored with it.

Physiology of age
The first signs of wrinkles appear on the forehead. During this period, the process of growth and formation of the organism basically ends, and all the main dimensional characteristics of the body reach almost their final size. The ribs merge and the rib cage is finally formed.
At the age of 20, many body functions reach their maximum: a person becomes strong, resilient, and reaction speed increases. The cardiovascular system, kidneys, and lungs have reached their final size, are using all their reserves and are working at full capacity. Nerve impulses are also very active and instantly carry out any command received from the brain.
For girls, the age of 20 becomes a favorable period for having children. They will more easily endure the formation of the fetus, childbirth and will recover faster.
The male psyche: how feelings manifest themselves
It’s easy to understand that your chosen one really loves you. Observe his reaction in the following cases:
- Showdown. During a quarrel, the partner will not leave the conversation, but will remain to indicate the reasons. If he's interested in you.
- Getting to know his close circle – parents and friends. The guy values his friendships, so he won’t introduce everyone to the company, much less to his family.
- Everyday situations. If your gentleman helps with chores around the house, this indicates his plans for the future.
Among other things, joint shopping trips, purchases, gifts mean serious intentions.

Decide what you want from this union, and be sure to tell your partner about it
The most important thing in any acquaintance is to clarify how you see your future with this person. Do you see yourself with him in the long term? Tell him about it. Do you only want sex? Make sure your partner has no illusions. Be honest with each other.

Men don't like to sort things out
It is a fact. The question “what do you think about our relationship” can simply drive him into a dead end. Just like the sacramental “we need to talk seriously.”
If you want to learn something from a man, ask specific questions.
For example: “Seryozha, what could I, as a woman, do to make you feel happier in a relationship?” or “You know, I feel loved and desired when you....”
The same tactics apply to requests and thanks to a man - softly, femininely, objectively and with delight.
And remember: never talk to a man about a relationship when he is hungry, angry, upset or watching a match of his favorite team on TV. And of course, talking about sex is not a taboo in bed.
Appear weak to a girl
Many guys worry that girls may have the wrong opinion about them, that after some words and actions they will consider them weak.
Dima, 17 years old:
“I worry a lot about whether I’m behaving correctly. Will my girlfriend consider me a loser, will she be disappointed in me? It’s very painful and unpleasant to lose a girl if she considers you unworthy of her boyfriend.”
These were the most common answers young people gave about relationships. The world bestseller by German psychologist Wilhelm Jonen, “A Man’s Fear of a Strong Woman,” lists other situations in which guys experience stress and fear of their significant other. Among them are the fear of being abandoned, doubts about one’s own appearance, embarrassment due to romantic and sentimental actions and words, as well as the fear of revealing one’s true feelings or that the girl will push the guy around and try to order him around, infringing on his manhood.
A man cannot be changed
First of all, why repaint it? Imagine if you were treated the same way in every relationship. I'm sure you won't like it.
He is who he is, and you can accept and love him as such, or not accept him. This does not mean that a man does not need to change and develop at all.
It’s just that not everyone wants this – and quite rightly so. It happens that people change radically, but solely out of internal impulse and motivation.
Sometimes under the influence of a strong stimulus - for example, love. But not in everything, not always and far from what you would like.
Therefore: if you are not satisfied with something globally in a relationship, first start with yourself, then with a frank and calm conversation with a man.
At the age of 18 a person must be able to...
Look at two situations that an adult must be able to handle—a life skill in itself: 1) illness outside the home and 2) car breakdown. Are we preparing for them? No, we don't cook.
Susan is an emergency room doctor at a hospital in downtown Washington. Nineteen-year-old students are her “most unpleasant patients.” Susan is a kind and loving woman, the mother of two children and three adopted children, all under eighteen. So I was a little surprised by her sarcastic tone.
“The students are generally healthy, and their parents take care of them at home. They come to our department with an upper respiratory tract infection - you might think it’s the end of the world. They get very nervous if you don’t give them an antibiotic and refuse to hospitalize them, but it’s just a cold - just drink more fluids and lie in bed for a couple of days.”
Susan tells how students burst into tears on the cold linoleum of the intensive care unit and cry on their mobile phones about this great grief - probably to friends and family. “They don’t know how to fight at all,” she says.
If you've ever planned a trip by car, you know that breakdowns are common. Todd Berger is the CEO of AAA Mountain West, a chapter of the American Automobile Association that covers Alaska, Montana and Wyoming. Seeing how needy millennial drivers are for support drives him crazy.
“Kids today are completely unprepared,” Todd says. He was born in Montana, owns a ranch and raises his own teenagers. When he talks about the life skills that are so lacking in most of the young people he now interacts with at work, there is both sternness and weariness in his tone.
The American Automobile Association's mission is emergency roadside service, not full service. They will change the tire, charge the battery, tow you somewhere, but will not deal with a comprehensive solution to problems with the car. However, young drivers demand full service on site.
“They have this mentality: “I don’t know anything, fix it quickly, my parents paid for it.” We also often notice that they don’t trust us. The team arrived, and they took out their phone and asked their friends on Facebook to help with the car. We don't know what to do with them. We really don’t know.”
