EMOTIONAL SUCKING AND CONVERSATION STRANGULATION
EMOTIONAL SUCKING AND CONVERSATION STRANGULATION is the fourth chapter of the book, We Are All Vampires.
We Are All Vampires by Rute Serafim & Karl Swainston
We are all vampires, but some of us are more vampires than others. We’re not talking about the blood-curdle-drinking vampires of the past.; no, the modern vampire is more sophisticated and is everywhere in society, seeking only the energy of another person. This contemporary and contemptuous creature will be a husband, a wife, a partner, or a boss in the workplace, daily draining their victims of life.
CHAPTER 4 - EMOTIONAL SUCKING AND CONVERSATION STRANGULATION by Rute Serafim & Karl Swainston
Emotional Sucking and Conversation Strangulation
Another red flag advertising the presence of a vampire is that the creature will delve deeply into your emotions. They will, however, have no interest in the emotions themselves; their interest is merely a tactic to elicit evidence of where weaknesses lie.
The vampiric creature will probe through your emotions for weakness. The victim will often find the vampire considerate and attentive to their emotional narrative. They will feel that the vampire cares because of their interest.
The vampire cannot feel emotions like any normal being. They are empty of emotional content in their lives. This is why they find emotional narratives interesting. It is something new to them.
In eliciting emotional narratives from their victims, the vampire waits for the negative to appear. This will be their opportunity to seize the ‘limelight’, be the saviour and be superior. Once the vampire has honed in on this emotional weakness and focused all its attention on the subject, the vampire will hijack the whole scene and use it to their advantage.
The vehicle for this hijacking is the conversation. The vampire is an adept creature at controlling conversations. They have the unique ability to block out what any other person is saying and only bring their thoughts to the conversation. They can often come across as quite persuasive because they possess this intense self-focus on what they deem suitable. The more persuasive the vampire becomes, the weaker their victims become. They will rule the conversation for their ends.
If the conversation is in danger of veering away from the vampire’s control, they will use all means and powers to deflect it back again.
