This is actually a tricky question Al. But here is the easiest way I can answer this one for you. The true meaning of the term energy Vampire(or Vampyre as was pointed out by the fool on the bottom of the page) is a person or persons who drain(s) the energy from another. If you have ever paid close attention to your body's level of vibrational resonance, you would notice that when you are extremely happy you feel as if you could do anything. You are positively "humming" with energy. Being in a state of extreme emotion of either the positive of negative influence can send electrical impulses in mass quantity from your physical body. Just because it can't be seen with the naked eye doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Some people "feed" off of that energy because it gives them the "jolt" necessary to make them feel exhilarated. Its a kind of kinetic/symbiosis. The problem with this is that we only tend to have enough energy in a single body to act as a personal battery. When another person uses our energies to charge themselves....it becomes draining on a physical level. Our entire body operates on electrical impulses sent to it by our minds(brain waves)...so when that same energy that surrounds our physical body is tapped into by another person's magnetic field we are left feeling tired and listless until our body can rest and recharge. If a person recognizes that they feel absolutely renewed after spending time with you...and they return over and over then although they may not be aware of the term used to explain what they are doing..they are aware that it is happening, and continue to use this as a means of physical restoration for themselves. It creates a kind of natural high. If however they are merely commiserating on a constant basis....and leaving without seeming any better off or happier...then in all likely hood you are being bombarded with so much negative energy that you are being affected on a physical level. There are alot of people who are aware of their ability to affect others in this manner, but I am sure that there are those who do not realize that they are draining you. I find it hard to believe that a person can repeat this over and over and not recognize the effect it is having on another, unless they are either blind or selfish.....or so deeply depressed at the time that it goes unnoticed. Either way....if you have someone who is affecting you in this way....try to limit the amount of time you allow them to spend with you. Be a good friend...not a meal.

Absolutley. I believe that our upbringing has alot to do with this.
Have you ever been around a person for an hour or so like this? Afterwards you feel drained and tired? I usually cut people off like that. Its very unhealthy.
If you want to read more on this, there is a book called Celestrial Prophecy. Written by James Redfield. The guy wrote this book on a theory he had about energy and how it is transmitted among people and turned it into a science fiction novel.
Its very interesting and you prbably will find it interesting to if you are asking these sorts of questions. I'm not a big reader but I understood every word and could'nt put it down.

In the sense that the way you act or speak can be very draining on the energy and/or emotions of others, absolutely.

Vampires always know they are on the hunt. Some people suck the life out of a room for some other reason. An inner demon perhaps.

Yes, You should read "The Celestine Prophecy"
The fourth Insight...
"From this perspective, we can see that humans have always felt insecure and disconnected from this sacred source, and have tried to take energy by dominating each other. This struggle is responsible for all human conflict. "

absolutely! Others are very aware. Unsure which is more disturbing...
I personally think some question- posting trolls are like that. Do it for the reaction, enjoy the energy directed their way.May or may not be aware. Most, i think, just think they are being funny or intellectual...

It sure is ... there are as many 'energy and emotional vampires' who aren't aware how much they 'drain people' as there are people who think they are sane who are actually acutely mentally ill.

I guess there could be those who don't know. A friend who just 'drains' you to the point of needing a nap when your done..Not many know of energy drains like that.
