Energy and emotional vampires to me are people who suck first your emotions out of you, then your energy, and finally your life-force or will to live. The vampires who suck these out of me are people who talk, I listen, and they keep on talking, and I keep on listening. I learned to stand up and leave them in the spot. Not on a date or a coffee-meet, but at large parties. I am not your sounding board, I say to myself, and I sometimes don't even excuse myself, but that's seldom. Later you see the same guy or woman wondering around, weaving in-and-out the crowd, looking for another person to listen to him or her. There are other sort of vampires. I used to have this sweet honeybunch for a girlfrined, we loved each other to pieces. I was very happy, really, but really happy to see her again each time we met, and I was coming out in overdrive with my speeches. She used to say, eventually, 'Andrew... please don't wear me out', and even that was quaint and lovable when she said that. It gave me empowerment, you know, the pride a man feels when he exhausts his girfriend in bed. I know she did not mean it in bed, but the feeling I got from it was the same. ----------- There is another vampire: who asks questions. Questions that reveal they have very-very little understanding of human nature, and since I am strange, they just can't believe I exist, even though I am sitting right in front of them on the other side of the table at a cafe or restaurant. "Why do you..." "Because,..." and I patiently explain. My limit is usually ten questions for not so interesting women, and twenty with interesting (i.e. gorgeous) women. Don't think badly of me, or that I am shallow... I have not been out on a date in seven years. I have read several of your posts -- I find you well written and obvisouly intelligent. In no way does you expressing your opinion (and expressing it rather well) that I would think badly of you - nor do I think you are shallow... OP: Yes, I have met them and have developed a personal vampire detector - I only let them close if they are trying to get me into bed! $.02
