Hey michael430,
just saw your thread and felt some urge to post. As usual its just my personal view and doesnt have to be related to your situation.
You said "I guess I view him as a child in an adult body". This made something ring for me.
Very often I realized in similar situations that the other-self was kind of trapped in my projection of them. And behaved like Ive expected it. eg. I had a co-worker, sitting in the same room and he made me crazy, every word made me explode inside.
While in anger and despair the "mantra" come up: "there is no $name" like in Matrix with the spoon. This immediately made me feel better. But the important point here, the next day the problems with this other-self were close to zero and we are friends now.
So my advice, since you asked for it: Free yourself of your view on him.
Easier said than done ;-)
Love and Light brother :-)
