How do you determine if a man is a man?

What makes a man a man?
The man i love is still a boy to me. I am the man and woman of the relationship because he seems to be the kid. Its up to me to make everything function yet he tries to be in control of things. He gets upset over little things where i am much more tolerant. He doesnt work but also doesnt want to do things around the house but critisizes me cause i wont let go of my "man" role. I was single for a long time then i got pregnant and stayed single again so i have only been dating for like 5 years and im 33 in my life i learned to be the man and woman for my sake and my sons. Its hard for me to let go but i also know i have to count on myself i cant rely on others that is something i just cannot let go of. Does anyone else feel this way or am i the lone ranger in this subject.

My husband became a man in my eyes when I had my first child. He grew up a lot that first year. Now that he is settled into being a father it seems like it he trying to go back to being the kid again. I am trying to get him out of it. I think I can do it!!

I keep thinking having a kid would make him grow up but im leary to do that because of the what ifs....if it happens i will deal with it if it doesnt im cool with that too. At first he had a real hard time dealing with my son...who is six my son not having a man in his life except grandpa was very pushy stubborn and rude but in time they have both changed and the boyfriend calls and talks to my son and the son loves playing with the boyfriend im hoping i can make him grow into a man soon. Sometimes he really irriates me that the computer, games and tv are more important than anything else im hoping he will soon realize the difference and realize i need him not just for company but to help out in life too. Thank you for adding me as a friend. I look forward to talking to you more often.
