Ok, I'm not going to post my opinion on this nor am i posting this for a deeper reason.. but in a vampyric lifestyle do you think it is ok to have both a mate and a swan (or two, or three) for feeding from sexually, through blood or energy?
I think it would depend on your preference and what you are comfortable with. If it feels right then I don't see any harm if you are not then I would advise strongly against it.
I have had both in the past. That's when I wasn't really committed to anyone in particular and it suited everyone involved just fine.
But if you are in a relationship, as I am now and permanantly, feeding from only one source would be better, or just adviced.
Seeking other sources of feeding would be also acceptable, from psy way - going to haunted houses, clubs, dream skaping, such like that.
Just my two cents.
Hmmm to have both at the same time would require strong trust between everyone I think.
i agree and thank you for your two cents... but how can you feed from a haunted house?
You can feed off of energies that others may have left behind as well as paranormal entities that may be lingering.
Well, I personally don't agree with it for myself. To feed upon someone is a BIG BIG BIG step for me. It is something I would never do with just anyone. There is a trust with me. I wouldn't want the person I was feeding from feeding from alot of people. To feed sexually would be something I would want them to do from me. Only me... it would feel like they were cheating on me. So I would have to say if it was sexually then just for me =)
HMMMM.....
I say it should be up to the people involved. Sooner or later feelings get involved and shit gets complilcated.
Another issue is making sure everyone has been tested for blood borne diseases.
It seems to be a difficult thing to work with, but some can do it and some can't.
*soft chuckle.
Feeding from a haunted house, I meant the kind people run through scared out of their minds at a carnival.
I've purposely starved myself for weeks, when I got there I ran through it three times always staying close to a young group of girls. When I got out of there you'd swear I was drunk.
LOL
lol... ahh... now the world is clearer... lol... i agree that all procedures should be done and it is something that would have to be consented upon.. but do you think that once you have a mate you should only feed from them or is the "entree really better with something on the side"? And Lord Ryu this is eluding to nothing that you may think
I try only to feed from my mate, but since he is another country right now.. I only feed off my best friend.
i suppose its ok for some. i find feeding summit intimate though and would prefer to do it from one person and vice versa
If your partner is fine with ite, then I dont see why not, but as PhoenixTempest said, it would demand a lot of trust.
ridiculous thread ash i would mark this with a huge RIA if i were Lord Cancer the forums are for general discussions not for you to publicly lash out at people.......
As for blood, only through my lover (for the most part) and my best friends (although rarely). With energy and such, everyone I come in contact with physically is susceptible for that, I find it a bit hard to control that part every once in a while.
As long as no one involved is being lied to and all are aware of the risks I suppose it's all ok personally I'm a one at a time kinda guy I gotta have a real trust with the other person before I exchange
please excuse the soldier... he knows not what he speaks... but i see that most of you are talking about intimate feeding...so do any of you have swans?
only if you are comforatable with it it also depends on if you care for your mate and get there approval if thats the kind of person you are
the way I look at it is if you do that chose wisely because the both of you will be bonded together for the rest of you lifes in some form of way.
i have no idea sorry, if u wanted to then do it, if u dont then dont
It would all depend on the maturity and trust of those involved and you hve to think are the other two involved with each other as well...
Being a feeder...., i draw energy from those i trust....., it doen't matter as long as they are willing
it all depends on who you are. and what you wish to do.
Yes Ash I had my fair share of swans. That and much more. I'm happy now with my Beloved, and that's more than what I need.
It all depends on the individual... Let people make up their own minds...
Personally I don't feed from anyone but my wife and same for her. Only cause I think it's a very intimate thing to do a blood exchange. Also there are to many diseases and nasty ppl lol.
thats true... diseases ::eeeew::... so then if you have a mate do you feel it necessary to have swans or is your mate enough?
RAGEtheSOLDIER has a point. If you are with NoctemAternus, then surely you would e better off discussing this with him.
It all depends how on well you trust your mate....I trust My mate with all of my heart but that doesnt mean I would let him feed off of another female sexually (unless I was involved)
I mean echo ...I told you ash how it looks it may not be about our past but it looks like that... good luck with your thread I hope you get what you are looking for...
Your Lord And Master Ryu!
Yes my mate is enough, like I said it's very intimate so I would feel like it's cheating.
jjla, why grudge yourself when there are so many mortals willing to feed you?
I believe that swans are for food and mates are for love, so yes, I think its just fine.
I feed from my partner in a number of ways... and Im in the frame of mind that feeding from others as friends, and in a non sexual way is fine... but if the bond between you is strong enough, then you shouldn't need to feed sexually off anyone else, as that should be enough to make you both satisfied.
When my mate has travelled I always have back up, but it's always better to feed as exclusively as possible.You waouldn't want to catch anything. But after all we are the undead
If I did that, my girlfriend would shoot me in the face with a boomstick.
And if she did it, I would do the same thing.
three to feed off of. Don`t let them lie around dormant,or they'll need to feed like you.
I feed from my partner..but..the blood of new ones always pursue me....
i think it can be ok as long as they all no of each other and respect that decition
i agree with you^^^^ i think it is all about what YOU are comfortable with...
I have a doner who is also another psy...I take my primary source of energy feeding from her.
I have a partner who wishes to also be my blood doner, when we have the opportunity and I also have another who wishes to show me sexual feeding, again, when the opportunity arises.
all of these people are aware that of the others and the situation and fully understand and accept it.
aside from that are the ambient feeds I take just to get by from parties and clubs...so, no, I dont see anything wrong with it in an ethical sense, only if one or more of the involved is being deceived.
yeah its kind of like the whole gender thing, vampires know no gender b/c they can't get it up so why care if its male or female. So guess what i'm trying to say is that no it shouldn't matter.
i have to agree with my lord ryu, what the fuck, vampires cant get it up, comes see us and we shall show u are wrong.
I have been readning what every one has been writing and a lot of different opinions have been staked, trying my best to seek my own judgemnet, I really dont see the harm in feeding from multipule people, just so long as the is an agreeance and it remains as that, feeding.
quite rightly it should be left up to the individual to decide... but I agree with the fact that if you're in a steady relationship you stick to that eprson for feeding... and always ask for his/her consent. Alternately you can feed off stray energy wasted which comes out say during gigs, concerts, or other crowded areas... loads of energy hanging around!
ashlee your thread is doing well.. I am happy that it is
playing with fire here one is good two or more is fun but it is fire
hehehe, I think the can't get it up part is from old lore...
a vampire is essantially (sp) a animated corpse... so they would have been unable to perform sexual rites.... unless they had just fed, and A LOT...
That's always where their mind sexuality came from....
but for the topic of the post
I think that it depends on the people (hehe, sorry, nothing original here) ... so whether there are swans involved, or just a mate... or a whole slew of hookers and transvestites (that was only ONCE lol) is up to the persons involved...
and perhaps the hospital (damn those hookers and their magic blood anyway :-( )
I agree with the others-it is most defnitely a matter of trust, in that it is a very personal and intimate thing to most people, and there is always the worry about disease-so if there is complete trust and honesty, and all the parties involved are careful, I see no problem with it
Id say go for/do whatever is more comfortable.... but thats just me
aslong as the ppl agree w that its k w it then i guese it is fine and all
i think if u are like that and it makes u happy go 4 it if u are not intersted well then simply dont
Like many people already said here, carefull...It's a very touchy subject. I believe it has a lot to do with trust...
i agree with some of the people trust and if that what u feel comfortable with i myself have two that i feed from
I think it depends on who you are with. And if they feel it is ok for you to do.
