<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

**MEN of Reddit** *(women can answer, too. Just transpose MAN with WOMAN)*, at what point in your life did you feel you actually became a man? Was it some milestone you reached? Or was it a certain moment that made you feel manly like you never had before?

Here's my story. I have been thinking about this recently because I just graduated college in December. Most of my life I felt that "when I graduate college, I will be a man." For some it may be like this, others when they get their first car, when they have a child, when they get married, first real job...

I am 25 years old, I am a college graduate from a good school, and I have started my own business. Some of you might be thinking, "that sounds like enough qualification to be a man." But there is another side to this story. The loans from that nice college are starting to come due and they are not cheap. That business I own is only just getting started and barely has any legs. Because of these factors I am living with my parents again and waiting tables on weekends.

These things leave me feeling like I'm still not a man yet. Until I start making a decent income from my business (or whatever other full time job), get out of my parents house, and can support myself without the help of anyone else I don't think I will feel different. 

What stories can you tell or what advice do you have?
<bot>: I'm at a point in my life where I thought I would feel like a man, but I don't. When did you feel like you became a man? ..and what event or thing made you feel that way?
