RE: Living With Mindfulness: It is not Always About YOU!
Interesting post.
You are correct in the difference between the 'vampiric' type and the passive 'black hole', type of person. (coming from a family of 'black hole' types).
They are very different.
Do you find you attract predominantly 'one type', in your life?
I think I must have a psychic beacon on my head saying 'vampires feast here', and another sign that says 'a black hole free zone'.
Do other people experience that same phenomenon, or is it me?
That's a good and interesting question. I think people who tend to be naturally empathic and caring are more likely to attract both types... since we're basically talking about a way of getting subconscious psychological needs met. I tend to attract these people because I am generally willing to be a good listener... and that makes me a good "dumping ground" for those with a lot of troubling things going on.
Personally, I am probably less attractive to "vampires" because they are more active and aware... and I am more willing to call people on their patterns. "Back holes" tend to be far less aware of their "doing" anything...
But that could be quite different from person to person.
