Emotional Vampires - anti social

Anti-Social Vampires are called that not because they don't like parties, but because they are heedless of normal social rules.

They love parties, and any other source of excitement and fun. They hate boredom worse than a stake through the heart.

DAREDEVILS are attracted to thrills like lemmings to cliffs.

LOOK FOR: Sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.

DRAW YOU IN WITH: Fun, excitement, and adorable adolescent rebelliousness.

DRAIN YOU BY: Overdoing everything exciting, and underdoing everything else.

THE ONES YOU SEE EVERY DAY: Cowboys, cowgirls, day traders, party animals, rebels without a cause, and that one lover you just can't seem to forget.

DEFENSIVE STRATEGY: Keep your brain engaged even when theirs are turned off. Especially then.

USED-CAR SALESMEN their drug of choice is putting one over on you.

LOOK FOR: People who swear they're telling the truth. Think about it, who but a liar would expect to be doubted?

DRAW YOU IN WITH: Instant rapport, smiling sincerity, and the sweet prospect of something for nothing.

DRAIN YOU BY: Lying, cheating, stealing, and perhaps getting you to engage in a bit of subterfuge yourself.

THE ONES YOU SEE EVERY DAY: Anybody who asks you if you've thought about your financial future.

DEFENSIVE STRATEGY: Always read the fine print, and remember, if a deal sounds too good to be true, it is.

BULLIES are addicted to the raw thrill of seeing you squirm.

LOOK FOR: Anger, threats, and yelling.

DRAW YOU IN WITH: The illusion that they are powerful.

DRAIN YOU BY: Making you afraid.

THE ONES YOU SEE EVERY DAY: The guy in the pickup who flips you off, and the petty tyrant who runs the finance department.

DEFENSIVE STRATEGY: Remember that the real battle with bullies is not in the dust of the playground, but in your own mind.

TRANSLATION GUIDE

"I want the mother of my children to be at home taking care of them while I support the family."
TRANSLATION: When my mask comes off you'll finally see how egotistical and hateful I really am.

"I'm not a material person, I believe in the sanctity and commitment of marriage."
TRANSLATION: I'll get everything I want, when I want it. If you want something it better be for me.

You deserve far, far better. You're the kindest most warm person I have ever met and I know that you'd do anything for me.
TRANSLATION: I should have employed more subtle tactics. You were right up at the top in terms of quality NS, you gave in so easily.

The thing that hurts me most is that you feel that I have been faking. Nothing could be further from the truth.?
TRANSLATION: You're catching on now. How dare you rip my mask off!

C'mon sweetie, it'll be fun, everybody's into this. Just lemme tie one wrist, OK??
TRANSLATION: I need to beat you senseless to get my rocks off.

I really hope you find someone who deserves your love. That person was never going to be me.
TRANSLATION: I'm sort of realizing that maybe, just maybe, you're cutting off my N-supply. Here, let me plant these poisonous words in your head, just in case I try to tap your source later on when I'm in a dry spell.

I want to say I'm sorry for all the hurt I've caused.
TRANSLATION: Saying sorry is easy, see? I can do it too! I don't want to damage my supply source too much, I went overboard this time. Keep those illusions alive baby so the doors will open for me and I can feed off of you even more. You know, that's the game I play. I got some great NS from you, You can't imagine how hard the withdrawal symptoms are.

"I always tell the truth, but other people don't live by my standards."
TRANSLATION: Every word I say is a lie, and you'll find that out the hard way.

"I promise never to hurt you again. I know it only brings pain."
TRANSLATION: I bet I only have to say this one more time and you'll crack and take me back and I can begin the games again. I know I treated you real bad and if you come back for more, I'll know I'm special.

" I've told you how honest I am. You know you can trust me. We'll double your investment in
