wow...i'm sorry you were so offended at my inability to understand what you were saying...i had to reread your statement 20 times to attempt to understand what you were saying because it was so improperly written...and if you had said it like you had written it, i would have asked you to rephrase it as well....because, honestly, i still don't fully understand what you were saying....because either you were saying there are two baselines, in which there are feelings and connections, or the baseline is feeling and connections....and the comma between for and and is unnecessary, there should have been a space instead....and the period and start of a new sentence (which was a fragment because there is no subject) was also unnecessary....it was not a diss, just a critisism....as in "a serious examination and judgment of something; "constructive criticism is always appreciated""....it is not innately negative....

is there something else we need to talk about?



All right-I'm sorry, my bad.

I'm feeling picked to death in this topic..I feel for what Pschyvamp went through in hers. I'm done, you people do whatever you want with it-I'll just watch from now on.

I recently met a vampire who fed off me at a munch.  but to try to describe what that was like.  I haven't the skill or the words.   Thank you for your posts

As a "YMMV" comparative - I had no trouble what-so-ever understanding RRafe's post, it seemed pretty clear to me what he meant with or without punctuation. Yours on the other hand reads like someone with a few teeth missing from the gears. You really aren't in a position to give any advice at all on what constitutes well written, properly written, or even good grammar and sentence structure.

Status: offline 		Well, let's reword your sentences a bit and I will agree completely with you.  My capitalization and my punctuation is horrid.  I don't want to write with proper capitalization and proper punctuation all the time.  My posts are written like I speak, a comma is a short pause and ellipses are longer pauses.  I also do not feel that capitalization is necessary because in the english language it is arbitrary, and that is not even bringing into it the bastardizations that we use within this lifestyle.  My main confusion had to do with whether there are two baselines or one, and due to the nature of my thinking I got caught up on the difference.  Sorry to RRafe for that obsessive-compulssive moment. I am still not really sure what the meaning of the first part of that sentence is or if it is even relevant.  I gave my opinion on the broad question asked at the begining of the thread in post #48 and was actually hoping for some more direction, not a bowing out, from RRafe.
I believe RRafe and I had this settled three hours before you had to come in to put your two cents in, SixFoot, but since you did, I hope this reply eases your mind and assures you that I can type just fine.

However, let's get back to the topic.

Status: offline 		This almost seems more X-Files than SG1 (lol) but i have to say i can competely believe in energy transfers. i'm highly empathic. When i walk into a room, i can tell amost immediately what the mood in the room is, before anything is said. i don't think it is merely a subconscious skill at picking up facial cues and body language, it is more of a perception of the energy in the room. When i feel someone hurting i have a compulsion to find a way to help -- purely selfish, of course, since the negative energy bothers me.

As far as feeding off of another's energy, i have never done that as far as i am aware. However i do believe that my ex-husband did so for years (i know most people can claim that about their exes *grin*) but being in the same room with the man leaves me feeling exhausted and weak.

i am not going to express an opinion on energy transfers during sex. i  see it as theoretically possible and completely logical, having done some research into the various types of meditation and healing, but can't say i have experienced it.

Referring to the poster who claimed healing and other mental powers were a load of crap -- truth is stranger than fiction and there are things we will never measure and duplicate in a lab but that does not mean they are not real.

peace,

I am an empath and Reiki Practitioner.
I also am slave & mother oriented.
I think any time someone is happy and it makes you feel joy you feed off their energy.
I think each interaction we have with any human being is an exchange of energy.
The union of your spirit with another's spirit leaves both of you with at minimum minute drops of the other energy that blends into your energy for that moment, day, or longer period depending on what's been exchanged.
I think feeding is not always a negative term.
I think if you both feed off each other that's what makes a full successful relationship.
If one feeds off the other there becomes a huge deficit on one side, if both feed it seems to be like a bottomless pit as the other person's energy sustains you just like yours sustains them.

Status: offline 		I often have to tell people to pull their energy back because it is bothering me.  I don't always say it like that though.  If I know them well enough and they know that when they hurt or are upset and are broadcasting, I can feel it too, I can tell them bluntly.  But if I don't know them or if they don't know that I can feel everything they do, I have to present it as a series of questions. What's wrong? Where do you hurt? (A lot of the time, I can ask them what they did to a specific area of their body) Why are you upset/angry? And through talking about it, they usually calm down enough that I do not feel it as strongly.  It also happens when people are so excitedly happy about something that they can't contain it:  I know you're excited about this, but I need you to calm down because my heart is racing now.  And most of the time people do not question it, they just say oh, ok, sorry, and we keep going after they have calmed down.
I don't feed off of other people when I need to replenish my energy, thats not healthy.  As others have mentioned it creates a vacuum. When I need to replenish my energy I tap into a source that is never ending and always there for me - The Man Upstairs, God.  It's an interesting process that i have gotten down to a less than 10 minute visulization that can have a lot of my aches and pains cleared away (actually i came up with that one 10 years ago) and then filled up with God's love and light, like He is on tap.  I can go over it in more detail in private, if anyone wants to know. 
In my personal, intimate, power exchange relationships, (which is where I believe RRafe was trying to go...because I can have romantic and sexual relationships without power exchange and that, to me, is irrelevant to this board, also I have had power exchange relationships that were neither sexual nor romantic) the lasting relationships have been ones where energy loops were created, an energy exchange, not an energy vacuum.  The Dominant's energy is a different kind of energy than mine, and in our relationship, in everything we do from sex to play to service to paying the bills there is an energy exchange. 
I have been in relationships where the power flow became unequal, and it went down hill quickly from there.  Different yes, but I feel the energy coming from both must be equal.

Status: offline 		Im somewhere on the outskirts of this discussion I think. I know my Sir can pull energy from someone else, Ive watched him do it, its kind of scary. I know that when he and I are together, there is a rather profound exchange of energy. I have friends who practice Reiki and other energy flow type thingys. I know it exists. But Ive never felt the ability to either pull or release energy on my own with another person. I do however draw alot of personal energy from the earth. My Sir thinks Im nuts but if Im feeling low or depressed all I have to do is go outside. I often sleep on the ground in the backyard. And no Im not referring to that boost of energy all people get from 20 minutes in the sun from the Vit D...although I know thats a truth also. I mean actual energy from the earth, I can touch ground or trees and instantly channel energy. I cant do it with water or airor people, just earth....but I havent ever met anyone else who describes exactly what I feel. Even in witchy groups....

Channeling energy from God (or Goddess or whoever/whatever you choose to acknowledge is out there) is a very new thing...most of my life has been channeling energy from water...natural sources are better, but unnatural (tap, swimming pool, etc) work as well...but that is my element...

oh and i identify as an eclectic Christian mystic...i have never met anyone else quite like me...but it works for me...

Let me clue you in, as to where my nick name comes from. SG1 fans probably already know what "the Rafe" are. An alien race in the series-that are life force vampires. I chose it for it's aptness to how I am wired. I'm strongly attuned to energies and sensitivity in perception.



The alien race you are describing are called the Wraith.   Not "Rafe."  Here is the Wiki.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wraith_%28Stargate%29

I hate to be a snit but as a fellow stargate dork/fan I have to point out the characters are called 'wraith' not 'rafe'. (edited to add apparantly someone else noticed that too LOL)

I do feel an incredible energy exchange during D/s, so much sometimes that I feel exhausted after just *talking* to my man.  It's definitely intense.

Not all energy feeders call themselves "vampires", but that is where one can find information on the subject.

Don't be insulted, its just that not everyone understands, not even the people who do it.

Status: offline 		To respond to the op, yeah, I do tend to be very sensitive to "energy".  When entering a new situation, or meeting new people, the first thing I notice is the energy.  I don't have a clue what I mean by this, but people either have good or bad energy, or, like others have pointed out, they contribute or drain energy.  Situations are the same.  Often, after leaving a place what I remember most, and what I base my evaluation on is the energy: was it positive or negative.  This kind of thing tends to override all other considerations.

I don't really understand it.  I know what it is but its more an intuitive sense for things than anything more rational.
