Unconventional Vampires

[Minara]

I am making this thread because this board seems to be about vampires as depicted by media and are of the 'bloodsucking' variation.

However, in terms of reality, there are people in our lives who drain us of our lives without any blood loss...I am talking about people who torment us, who insult and maim our spirits until we don't feel like carrying on....

Feel free to post here.

this is an intresting point to be made and i think minara has been very right to start a thread about it. There are alot of people that have said in other threads that they are treated diffrently because of the way they dress and act we have seen that people in the media have been hounded for there belifes and what they have publicly said.

i belive that these people live on the feeling that they are better than others and there only way to do this is to bring people down insult them and scar them on a level that they connot understand.

i think that when people start clasiffying people into groups . so people would say we are goths others would be called kevs, skaters, trendies, shaz's, norms . when this system is started these people are given the tool that they use to inflict this on others.

But you should be confortable in yourself and be able to go and with your head held high and say that you are what you are and not to worry. People that insult you and try to get to you do this not becuase you are int he wrong but because they are weak and cannot live without trying to prove to themselves or show of to others around them.

i spent alot of time beliveing that the reason that groups of people insulted me and at times physically beat me up was becuase it ws something wrong with me. if that was the case then i still wouldnt be here i realised that it is them that has the problem and they who needed to change.

i hope that soemthing i have said rings true in people. sorry that i have rambled so much

Wishlesshollow what you said was not rambling it was very correct.

And Min this is a good topic, I am sorry that I have not gotten around to posting until now.

I know and believe that there are many types of vampires in the world and not all of them drink blood, there are those vampire who drink others psychic energy, vampires who drink others self confidence, and so on.

There are many vampires who probably dont even realise that they are vampires because of the fact that they dont drink blood.

Vampires feed off of many different things but most people only think of blood drinkers when they think of vampires.

I agree this is a good topic. I have fallen victim to this as well from an ex-boyfriend and from a classmate and it is the reason I got so shy around new people when I was younger.
but I have moved on and I am gaining confidence. I still have one tormentor but I am working on her not getting to me.
There are alot of tormentors out there and I wish they would all stop. we all have weaknesses sometimes so why pick on someone elses weakness when you have your own and tormenting others because of your weakness is stupid.
ok now I am rambling, but I just wish all this tormenting would stop!

ok I have put in my two cence.
