Recent events in my own life have given me the idea to write not necessarily a "tutorial" but more so a "loose guide" on some of the social tendencies of psi-vampires, and how one might be able to interact with them easier, to make it so the experience is pleasant for both vampire and non-vampire.
Part 1 - Interacting with a Vampire Friend
The main factor here is whether or not they are awakened. The unawakened vampire can be somewhat annoying at times, or perhaps seem to desire your attention often. They may be drama queens, do crazy things to attract attention, or otherwise be completely insufferable. However, dealing with an unawakened vampire can be rather easy.
Firstly, remember that vampires feed off of you, regardless of whether they mean to or not. Unawakened vampires have absolutely no idea they are doing it, too. It can be a bit draining, and bothersome at times. However with proper shielding and precautions, you can avoid the unconscious feeding easily enough.
With this in mind, realize that YOU will set the mood. The vampire may come to you in a bad mood, but ultimately within moments that will change. Vampires are extremely prone to mood swings, and feel emotions very, very strongly. If you are close friends with a vampire, they will feel what you will feel. If you are happy, they will be as well. If you are sad, they will feel sad. As it goes with the other range of emotions. Keep this very, very firmly in mind during interactions with them. They may poke and prod at you to get emotional reactions out of you, and if they get none, they will eventually become disinterested, and look for a more "interesting" person to talk to. Don't be offended by this, and use this to your advantage if they're bothering you. However, if you're too placid, they may think you're hiding something, and start to pry.
Overall - just remember that your emotional state here is very important. If you can remain upbeat, and hold good conversation, both you and your vampiric associate will be pleased. Vampires also make wonderful listeners if you need to vent, as a vampire's tendency to feed off of energy can remove a LOT of negative and pent up energy from a person.
Part 2 - Interacting with an Awakened Vampire Friend
Most of the information from the above also applies here, except with the knowledge that (hopefully) the awakened vampire friend will be aware of some of their qualities which can make them a poor individual to spend a lot of time with. An awakened vampire can drain people much more easily than an unawakened vampire. This is partly due to an increased need for energy.
You may find all of the above behavior intensified, though with the knowledge of what to expect, it is easy enough to compromise and work though some of it with your vampire friend. Since they are awakened, if you are feeling very drained, fatigued, getting headaches, etc, you can bring it up to them, and perhaps request time away from them. Hopefully the awakened vampire will not be offended by this, and be very understanding, and perhaps find a way to control their worse aspects in the future.
Part 3 - The Vampire Lover
I'm going to focus mainly on the awakened vampire lover for this part, as much of the advice in the first section will also cover the section for an unawakened vampire lover, some situations may be different, however, as you will be closer to them. If more advice is requested for this, I'll add it, though I don't personally see it as necessary at the moment.
First off, let me just say that the vampire lover, awakened or not, will have a rather strong sex drive. Sexual energy is very, very potent, and once the vampire has been exposed to it, they will desire it quite often. I cannot vouch for individuals, though from my experience, lovers who are talented in energy working, as well as vampiric lovers, are very talented, attentive individuals in the confines of the bedroom. Once again, this is not accounting for individual likes, dislikes, etc. However one thing that can generally be accepted is that it's going to be a long affair until one or the other is exhausted. I would simply suggest getting enough rest, and engaging in exercise and a healthy diet to counter the effects of being drained often. Some people have described being fed upon as near ecstasy. Don't get too lost in it, however, as it can create nasty habits for the vampire, and make you feel very fatigued and drained over time.
The most important aspect here is addiction - both on the non-vampire side, and the vampire side. I'm not exactly sure how yet, but non-vampires can easily become addicted to vampires, as it has happened to my lovers before. They can develop symptoms somewhat similar to what the vampire has, like migraines and similar. However, if the balance of power and whatnot are roughly equal in the relationship, this should not happen. However, if the non-vampire has a lot of energy, the vampire can easily become addicted to the abundant energy of the non-vampire. Both sides of this are unhealthy, as addiction can alter mindsets and emotions, and overall make for a very harmful relationship. And relationships are difficult enough as it is, right?
Part 4 - The Vampire and Vampire Relationship
If you are a vampire, and your lover is also a vampire, then all of the above information applies. You know yourself, your drawbacks, your advantages. And your lover will have all the same. You must be aware of yourself, but also be aware of your lover. Chances are the relationship will be very, very intense with the both of you feeling extremely attached to each other. Communication is key here, talk things over often. Don't let feelings fester, don't try to be manipulative, get what you want out in the open and simply talk about it. This will solve more problems then you can ever imagine. Two vampires makes for an extremely enjoyable pairing when it happens correctly. It is a rare experience and one that is very, very strong. Don't lose your head among the intense interactions between you and your lover, may it be in the bedroom, or just in simple conversation. And make sure your lover keeps the same in mind. You both have the potential to drain each other, until you are both very weak, so be sure to spend some time away from each other to obtain energy from other sources, otherwise it will quickly be a very taxing and exhausting relationship to maintain.
Part 5 - A General Reminder
Keep in mind that in any relationship, be it platonic or romantic, communication, honesty, and compromise are key. You will not always agree with your lovers, and you will most certainly not always agree with your friends. If you are unhappy, make sure you communicate it as such. Honesty is also key, as if you are not honest, what kind of relationship is it anyways?
Thank you for reading, I hope this guide can make the lives of non-vampires and vampires alike much easier, and smooth some of the rockier parts of interaction.
