Do you guys believe in the energetic vampirism?
Why it happens? how does it work? Why one person is energetic vampire and another person let sucking out her/his energy and then feels empty?
...Couple of days ago I met one of my friends which I didn’t see for at least 4-5 month… We know each other for many years, and used to be very close once… While we were talking, he looked at me and said: “something wrong with you.you look like someone is sucking out your energy…where are your sparking eyes? Where is your fantastic smile? Where is your playful gracefulness? Where is your full of passion talk?? Is any energetic vampire around?
What guys do you think about it? Is that possible?

They don't know they have an effect to others coz they are so entwined with themselves and their own remorse.

They don't get energized when they suck your energy...it's like they're infecting you with their negativeness...

Come to think of it...you look rathere "pale" when i saw you at the farm...as if you lost your sunshiney aura that day...

so azi.. in this case, the vampire must be happy, and the victim should feel unhappy? not the other way round...??

well... but if someone makes you unhappy, and becomes happier and happier day by day, by taking your energy, your "life force", your high activity, your success.. and leaving you emptier and emptier, unhappier and unhappier..

so who is what??

and fills you with negative energy...

Like a vacuum sucking your energy...

I think you got it, notfromhere. If you are with positive people you feel positive, if you surround yourself with negative people you'll feel miserable after a while. But "energy vampire" sound much better.

QS, I think toxic people (or energy vampires--hadn't heard that term before) are basically unhappy, miserable people and they have to make sure everyone else is miserable too.

i am confused here.. I imagine a vampire is the one who is sucking the energy, so he must be FULL of energy. why he would feel unhappy then?? I think the one who is giving away his energy must feel empty, unhappy and down... the one who takes, goes up and up and up.. NO?

azi.. that's it! how did you say it?

"After a visit with an energy vampire..."..here you go! and about feeding off the "life force" ..yep...the vampire clambering up and up and up on the "life stairs", basically on your bones...

- Intruding on your life, ignoring boundaries and privacy (energy vampires don't think of you).

- Making big deals out of nothing. Energy vampires are often called "drama queens" because they can easily turn a broken nail into a Shakespearean tragedy. Negative energy spreads from everyday events.

-Complaining constantly about their partners, jobs, children, bad luck, and illnesses. Energy vampires like to vent.

-Criticizing your hair, appearance, job, children, partner, friends, and pets (energy vampires aren't positive).

-Not taking "no" for an answer. Energy vampires don't consider your needs.

-Being unrelentingly negative. Their negative energy is unrelentless, and energy vampires drain your positive energy by encouraging you to be negative, too.

- Blaming everyone else for their problems (energy vampires don't take responsibility).

Whewww...I guess there really ARE vampires...

said to have the ability to feed off the "life force" (often also called qi, prana, energy or vitality) of other living creatures.

Energy vampires deplete your positive energy like real vampires slurp blood. Energy vampires drain your positive energy, leaving you drained and listless. After a visit with an energy vampire, you barely have enough energy to watch tv - much pursue your goals or do your chores. Negative energy has consumed your positive energy.

I tried to manage Dracula, but he refused. Also, his working hours are not mine.

sometimes, someone's aura could affect a person.

That's why some advises others to be with a crowd or happy people coz it has an effect to the others. Like misery loves company sorta thing....

There are "predators" and "control freak" in both sexes..It is very difficult to fall into a false sense of security and allow the other person to envelope you mentally.

i suppose you have to look for the signs, but usually the heart over rules the head..

that's what my ex said, "it could be your bf"..(brit, Don’t take my/his words literally! i only reflect the meaning)

do you think he is just jealous? LOL..

no, but really, that's how i feel lately...

but how is that possible to know for sure? and who is exposed to this? what kind of personality makes a vampire? and what kind of personality let sucking his/her energy? does it mean a vampire is a strong person, and another is weaker one? or what it connected to? which features?

I was just messing with you..I am not an expert on the matter, but it seems common sense that people you interact with can have a positive or negative effect on you.

If you choose to be with people who cause you tension or nervousness, then they will in the long run drain you of your energy and happiness.
