In college I was dating a girl who, as it turns out, was a vampire. It took me several months to come to this realization for I was fixated on her limitless beauty and infinite wisdom.
Her skin was as pale as the flesh of a lychee and glowed in the moonlight for she refused to be seen by day.
She took classes in the evening and slept all day. The only times I saw her outdoors in the dawn were when it was raining. She loved the rain. She had a large collection of trench coats and umbrellas. Under her coat she wore the most lovely skirts. I always got a kick out of seeing her wear a skirt with boots. (not literally)
I loved her. When she was ill I would tend to her. When she was sad I would comfort her. The realization that she was a vampire momentarily stopped my heart as I was overcome by respect and fear.
In the end, I decided to break it off. Maybe I was too afraid, maybe the vampire "life" isn't for me, I don't know.
Was I wrong or did I do the right thing?

A writer by profession, I have two things to say to you.
1) You should have become a vampire so you could live forever -- or, at the very least, be deceived into believing you would.
2) You should write for a living if you don't already. You are very good!

I don't believe in God any more because of a tragic motor scooter and gun accident that blew off my left foot and three fingers. I often wonder that if I saw Bozo naked would I think that chocolate milk cannot be sold in stores in a plastic container, or could it? That is a very deep and philosophical question that many great people like Coach Ditka and Jesus could not answer when they went before a grand jury for illegal dancing in Utah. Just because Van Halen does not play at your grammar school dance doesn't mean that you have missed out in life or did something wrong. You have to move past those issues and begin to address the fact that Men are from Mars and Women are from Saturn. I once fed a dead rat to a blind man in a tossed salad and he was not happy with the dressing I picked for him. Do you ever reflect on the meaning of extra large shrimp or why plumbers don't lay plumbs when bricklayers lay bricks? Dance freely and don't forget to wear sunscreen when you go to the bowling alley. The government and aliens want you to stop smoking and you are just falling into their plan and trap. Think about all the people in the phone book that cannot play the piano or shoot a cross bow. Why is that? I cannot explain this to anyone unless they open their mind to free thoughts and the acceptance that dogs can teach humans to create a clean burning combustible engine to put in our automobiles. I do generally wear only women's orange panties when I cut the lawn in the morning. I think that is the best answer that I can provide with this limited amount of time and research.

Oh if only I'd met a male vampire...*le sigh*
Ahem... :)
I'm sorry about that. Right or wrong...unfortunatly you cannot go back. If you have the ability to find her again, then you should follow your heart and the worst she could do is slam the door in your face. In the end you'll be no worse off than you already are.
If that is an impossibility and she is truly gone...then I suggest you take it for what it was, be happy you at least had those moments, and next time somthing like that happens...well you'll know what to do then won't you? ;)
Good luck.

Well, you have to do what you have to do. Maybe the vampire life wasn't for you, but you could always look her up and try again. Me? I was bitten by a Lepinthrope at the Farmer's Market. Now every afternoon turn into a small furry bunny with sharp pointy teeth. Good thing the mailman doesn't have armour on.

9 will get you 10 she was a Goth or actually believed that she was a vampire. Truthfully if what you say if true than she is merely fictional. If she was not then she would not have let you depart from her life so easily. Consider the source.

You know, a lot of people are vampires in college. Once she graduated, she either got over it herself or moved back in with her parents. So, if you call her parents' house and she's there, you still have a chance!

You do know that there are no real vampires, don't you? Not the kind you read about or see in movies. Only people with limited intelligence would believe otherwise. No one has to live in the dar or drink blood. Please.
