How to center text in div in HTML and CSS?

I have this div in my HTML file:

.aboutme_bar {
  width: 100%;
  border-top-left-radius: 8px;
  border-top-right-radius: 8px;
  height: 30px;
  background: lightgray;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  align-items: center;
  transition: all 0, 33s ease-in-out;
}

.aboutme_bar_text {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  margin-left: 240px;
}

.aboutme_bar_btns {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-around;
  align-items: center;
  margin-left: 10px;
}
<div class="aboutme_bar">
  <div class="aboutme_bar_btns">
    <div class="aboutme_bar_btn aboutme_bar_btn_close"></div>
    <div class="aboutme_bar_btn aboutme_bar_btn_mini"></div>
    <div class="aboutme_bar_btn aboutme_bar_btn_resize"></div>
    <div class="aboutme_bar_text">AboutMe.txt</div>
  </div>
</div>

I am having trouble because when the maximise button is clicked, the div increases in size. When this happens the text is not centered. Is there a way for the text to remain centered even if the size of the div is altered?

I am new to HTML and CSS so any and all comments appreciated. Thanks.

    If you want the text to be always at center irrespective of other div inside then you can use position absolute to center it.

      .aboutme_bar {
    width: 100%;
    border-top-left-radius: 8px;
    border-top-right-radius: 8px;
    height: 30px;
    background: lightgray;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
    align-items: center;
    transition: all 0, 33s ease-in-out;
  }

  .aboutme_bar_text {
    position: absolute;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    text-align: center;
  }

  .aboutme_bar_btns {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-around;
    align-items: center;
    margin-left: 10px;
  }
      <div class="aboutme_bar">
    <div class="aboutme_bar_btns">
      <div class="aboutme_bar_btn aboutme_bar_btn_close"></div>
      <div class="aboutme_bar_btn aboutme_bar_btn_mini"></div>
      <div class="aboutme_bar_btn aboutme_bar_btn_resize"></div>
      <div class="aboutme_bar_text">AboutMe.txt</div>
    </div>
  </div>

    Hope it helps.
