But to just have sleep overs among friends seems to be immature to me. It's like little kids that have the best day with their friends and the think they'll miss out on something so, they have to spend the rest of the night. What do u think?

What's immature about staying over at someones place? Perhaps it's a long journey home that they don't want to make or they've just broken up with someone and want some company or they're the kind of friend you can go cuddle up to all night and be affectionate with.
Staying over in a friends place just hanging out and talking is one of the best ways to bond and when you know you don't have to leave it's even better because you can have a few beers and watch a marathon of your favourite comedy series or help them discuss their life issues and catch up with deep intimate stuff they may not feel comfortable talking about except in such a safe comfortable position and with a little bit of tiredness.
You're never too old to have a sleepover, you're never too old to have fun at a fun fair, or swing on swings. OP we may be adults with adult responsibilities but it's okay to let your hair down and act like a kid every now and then. Adult fun doesn't solely have to revolve around going to bars and partying. You can have sleepovers, grab a tonne of ice cream, popcorn, watch lots of movies, play games, pretty much do whatever the hell you like with your life.
Most of my friends are the type where you really won't get to the bottom of what's really on their mind until you're in that kind of setting. You'd be surprized how the comfort of neither of you having to leave and having the whole night alone can do for getting people to open up. It works the exact same as when we were kids doing it.
