One thing I’ve experienced is that I genuinely feel exhausted, physically and emotionally exhausted after spending time . At first I thought “she’s having a hard time, she needs a friend”. After many years I sat back and realized “she’s ALWAYS going through something, it never freaking ends”

1. Dead eyes.
2. Telling you right away in your relationship their victim story.
3. Exaggeration.
4. A one upper on your story.
5. Monopolize the conversation, do not listen to you.
6. General feeling something is off about this person.
Best tip: Say no to this person and stand your ground.

When you’re in a good mood, and they are suddenly “interested” in what you’re doing and they want to be in your space at all times even when you make it clear you want time to yourself. More than likely they are using you for supply.

[jillainenewman]

Also, you get the sensation that they are talking"at" you rather than to you or with you. They don't actually listen and consider what you say. That's because they don't care.

One simple way to tell if someone is an energy vampire is just to pay attention to how you feel after interacting with them. Are you energized, inspired, or happy? Or do you feel drained, aggravated, and anxious? If you consistently feel like the latter it is time to get away from them.

Grey Rock helps repel them- be as dull and uninteresting as a grey rock- works every time!

Energy vampires really do kill your intuition.

[sunnyclouds]

1. Want instant relationship
2. Compliments, compliments and more compliments
3. Future faking within couple of conversation
4. Many failed relationships many crazy ex's with tons of drama
5. They are never, never at fault
6. Freak out when you friend zone them ( which you should to get to know them)
7. Say no or disagree with them
8. Won't take no for an answer
9. Confessions of liking you for a while

[francescaverdi]

They have light in their eyes until the conversation shifts off themselves.

I’ve known at least three EV’s in my adult life. The most obvious characteristic is when you ask them about their day for example and they proceed to tell you every little detail of what they did, literally step by step and spend 10 minutes telling you something that would normally only take 20 seconds for a non EV. That and they’ve absolutely MUST have your full attention at all times. Exhausting !

[jenniferbulpitt]

As a helper I was drawn so much to those with victim mentality. I don't know why it took me so long to realize that calling it out (in a loving, healthy way) is why I kept getting discarded.

[zengreen]

When someone FREQUENTLY makes you feel as if you are TWILIGHT ZONE, usually, they are an energy vampire RUN!!!!

[mikki]

Dead on! 👍 I had a coworker that wanted us to be friends. They were very outwardly warm, very polished, super confident and a LOT of fun. When I got closer though, I was confused because what I felt intuitively was at odds with what I thought I "should" feel, as they were very good at making me feel good and making a big, dramatic show of how much they liked me and supported me. I often couldn't wait to get away from them for reasons I couldn't initially pin down. I finally realized that when we would hang out one-on-one, I often felt drained, not heard, used, and subtly "pissed on" and dominated on occasion. Then finally, I needed them to listen ONE time, and they got angry and turned it back to themselves as if to say, "My problems are more important. YOU need to support ME." That was when I finally got it and ended the close friendship. We can hang out in a big, casual happy hour group that benefits from a loud, swaggering personality lol, but that's it. We cannot be close friends because they only want a worshipper, not a friend. This video is dead on, because they are a HUGE braggart and exaggerator, a self-promoting monopolizer of conversations, and a one-upper with a need to be the center of attention.

[lounarcosis]

When they ask for advice about their problem because they always have problems or questions for you to answer and then they never really listen to them and you just keep repeating yourself everyday.
I had that friend that knew I had insomnia and every time I said I was going to take a nap she had some urgent need of me helping her or listening to her she would juste watch me suffer, being sleepy af, sleep deprived everyday while narrating a story that actually wasn’t urgent and could be sum up in 5 min

If I am feeling tired or bad for no reason. I suspect energy vampires. I taught people who may be psychically victimized my method for dealing with it.
1.) Close your eyes
2.) imagine your arm is a sword
3.) imagine silver or different colored cords attaching to your solar plexes from off in the distance to seemingly nowhere.
4.) Take your arm and like a sword cut those cords sucking your energy.
It works for me and all the people I've taught this.

Another possibility regarding the smiling observation: I often smiled in social situations but had no light in my eyes, because internally I felt beaten down and emotionally exhausted by my NARC.

[jenniferm.giroux]

Met my energy vampire at work...dead eyes...eager to tell me tragic bits about their life...very needy...asks questions that anyone who just took a moment and thought about it could come up with the answer...and youre absolutely right...you have to have strict boindries and tell them no ALL the time...they will wiggle themselves right in on in one's natural inclination to help out another human being, but you gotta stand yr ground...be polite, but be unwaivoring...loved this vid! 😀👍

[cathyecooper]

100% of my encounters with this personality is the "victim mentality"... so, I don't walk away - I RUN!!!!

[NadaAlawadhi]

I remember I started retreating because life got too tough I had to pull away to recharge and they went crazy, accusing me of not caring and destroying everything, it was like they pushed me into unsteady water and while I was trying to keep my head afloat they were screaming, “what about me!!!” And the crazy thing is that they’re on stable ground, they’re the ones who pushed me int there! That’s how I metaphorically describe the situation.

[abundancevortex]

Amazing video. Energy Vampires have a hard time taking feedback and being accountable.

They love to withhold people's belongings for control, play into power differentials to feel superior, and disregard other people's boundaries.

They are pro at gaslighting and emotionally deflecting responsibility while also overpowering others when they do say no.

They like to overlook what other people feel by speaking over them, not truly listening, and making every situation about them by emphasizing themselves over others and making it seem like they have it worse no matter what.

Anyone can be an energy vampire but of course the energy vamp is clueless and unaware because they don't want to be conscious and have to do the work to heal or be better.

Enabling themselves to behave dysfunctionally and narcistically is in fact how they covertly manipulate to get their needs met through indirectly harmful ways.

Dodge them, get them out of your life, and do not invite them into conversation, relationship, or your home at all costs. Steer clear and protect your peace and energy.

These kinds of individuals do not actually care if you get hurt or suffer consequences due to their negligence as long as they get what their ego desires. Insane. Run.
