Jason Screeb: the man, the myth, the manic... » Women http://www.jasonscreeb.com I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder three years ago, and also suffer from panic attacks. My mind is confusing, interesting, and always unquiet. My perception isn't what one might consider normal, and I've been told my views can be distorted. Picture Seinfeld with a chemical imbalance. This is my release, in a therapeutic way. Being totally anonymous, but completely open... you will find my viewpoints on what I encounter around me.

I watched as a co-worker was torn apart from her conversation with her boyfriend, the tears were flowing. Next, all the women gathered around and were comforting her. I have broken off relationships and been dumped, but never let it effect my work. Never in my life have I ever shown the office that something was wrong, I simply do my work. I even found out my Mother had passed away at 10:00 am, and finished out the day without a sign of anything being wrong. So why do women put on a big show?


A likely theory is attention. Sometimes it is obviously dramatic and women are always sharing every detail of their lives. Everything from weekend plans, to what the name of their sister’s child is. Men don’t typically go into all the detail, simply for the fact that they don’t care. I consider myself overly private, and co-workers have to literally pull information out of me. When in the workplace, I feel one must conduct themselves in a professional manner. Is it unprofessional for a woman to put on this show of emotions?

It can be unprofessional depending on the situation. Picture your trying to work, and 5 Women are bashing the now ex-boyfriend next to you. This is very distracting, unprofessional, and taking it too far. Take a step back and think about what really goes on, because attention isn’t necessarily the culprit. I believe it goes as far as our genetics. Women are the nurturers, and it is the motherly instinct taking over. This is what creates this swarming effect, which men observe in offices across America. I will leave you with a final thought relating to current events. How many women will be gathered around Hillary Clinton in the Oval Office when a school shooting happens?

The Promise… Ring. http://www.jasonscreeb.com/2008/02/why-wont-my-girlfriend-have-sex-with-me-after-3-years-the-promise-ring/ http://www.jasonscreeb.com/2008/02/why-wont-my-girlfriend-have-sex-with-me-after-3-years-the-promise-ring/#comments Sat, 01 Mar 2008 01:14:00 +0000 Jason Screeb http://www.jscreeb.com/2008/02/29/why-wont-my-girlfriend-have-sex-with-me-after-3-years-the-promise-ring/ Tags: , , , I am frustrated in the worse way, let me bring you up to speed. My love and I have known each other for almost 8 years now, and dated for several years. She is my best friend, and I am going to spend the rest of my life with her. We broke up for almost a year and have gotten back together in the past couple months. Being together for so long, it is obvious that we were intimate. As a matter of fact, I lost my virginity to her. This leads me up to my current problem… she’s now a born-again virgin!

It started with her having some personal issues towards the end of our relationship before we split up. She had some dark times (maybe more to come on that later), and now has a more extensive list of
medication than I do. Part of her getting better is finding her strength in God. She is very religious as far as practicing, and I am not. I respect her decision to save herself until marriage for both God, as well as the respect of our relationship. My support is there for her and her decision, but that doesn’t mean I have to like it.

These leads to the present. Tonight we got into a fight, because in her quest for celibacy. She took it to a new level and bought herself a “promise ring”. Apparently this is something people do to make their promise official. She wanted me to take part in putting it on her, and I simply refused. I told her I would support her, but I didn’t want anything to do with it. It wasn’t my decision, and I wasn’t asked if I would like to take part in it. I was just told this is how things are going to be now. This led to us not speaking the rest of the night.

I know that seems mean, but keep in mind I love her and will support her. To me, there is making the promise and following through with it… and then there is taking it too far. I feel that when two people love each other, and have been together for years in the past… there is nothing wrong with expressing that love. The sense of intimacy is now lacking in our relationship, and it does feel different when we are together. It feels like the closeness is not there like it used to be. This won’t change my feelings for her, for they grow more every. It will have an impact on my happiness and perhaps cause some spats.
