How to Date a Vampire

Right away, you know that this pairing has some inherent problems. Yes, it has a certain Goth-appeal to it, and who wouldn't want to date an immortal? But you also know that it's going to have that Romeo and Juliet "star-crossed lovers" thing going on. Here are some ways to navigate the tricky terrain of dating a vampire.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Make sure your vampire date is the vegetarian type. After all, this is just a date, not how to become his eternal bride. If he gets his fangs into you, the dating is over and the wedding planning begins.

2. Go Goth. Your vampire wouldn't be caught dead, or undead, with a preppy type. Get into the right look and that vampire will be looking your way.

3. Take an interest in your vampire's undead life. The undead have a whole set of problems you never even dreamed of, like not being able to get a good tan. Be supportive when he's feeling a little isolated. It isn't easy being a vampire.

4. Learn to get by on a lot less sleep. After sneaking out at midnight and staying up all night, you'll still have to get up at 9 a.m. Deal with it. Get some extra makeup to hide those bags under your eyes.

5. Tell your vampire he looks great, even when he doesn't. Remember, your vampire date can't see himself in a mirror. This makes for all sorts of difficulties in the grooming department.

Tips & Warnings

• Don't tell a soul, living or undead about your vampire date. This just isn't going to fly with the parental units. If they find out, you're probably grounded until you're too old to date. Besides, isn't this part of the appeal?

on 6/29/2009 I agree with EliseM... i met a vampire through a friend of mine she and her fiance neglected to inform me of his vampire nature... I called his bluff about wanting to turn me and he admitted it to me... when things get hot an steamy between a human and vampire 2 things happen the human becomes something the vampire wants to bite more and the vampire can't always resist that temptation.... i should know i had it happen to me... he bit me enough for it to turn me but not enough to take blood much to my suprise. so to the older vampires out there how do you know when you've turned from human to vampire and how do you resist the urge to bite?

on 3/31/2009 I have found that we do seem to prefer the "darker" looking women rather than the "preppy" ones. Perhaps it is simply the nature to shy away from light and favor the dark.
