Mind Control
Ah, this guy maybe you don't want to change but how do you deal with him without becoming a victim? The next time your mind controlling vampire waxes poetic on some subject, smile and nod while constantly asking yourself if you truly agree with him. If you don't, keep your damn mouth shut. This guy will only get more aggressive if you tell him your opinion differs from his. Instead, if he asks what you think, be vague and change the subject or say something like “Let's agree to disagree,” although that can go badly too because he'll inevitably not want you to disagree with him. So it's safer to just keep silent.
I'm not saying to stop being yourself or to bottle up all your opinions every time they differ from his. I'm saying to ask yourself if battling with him will bring you the result you want and if not, what will? Now here's where it gets interesting. I may not think you should argue with this mind controller but I definitely think you should show him that his powers have no affect on you. He may already have a great deal of influence over you without you knowing, so you must practice this over and over with him until you feel yourself to be back in control of your own mind once more.
Okay, first, change your way of talking with him. You can't be bothered with useless prattle when you speak to a mind controller. You must be focused and have your point firmly set in your head so you can work your words steadily to it. This type of vampire will appreciate you eschewing useless talk and will admire you more for being a woman that knows her own mind. So, first lesson is, keep your eye on the ball. No, not those balls, ugh, just remain focused. Second is, don't fall for his BS.
This guy is a tale spinner, he says things that make you feel good and make you think he understands you but then he follows it up with a request for you to do something for him. It's okay to relate with him and feel connected, just remind yourself that this connection doesn't give him the right to make requests of you. Instead, finish these talks by making a request of him. Even if it's something as small as, “Could you pass me that blanket? I'm cold.” That's fine, work up to the bigger stuff, your request will snap him out of his own focus and remind him that you're a woman to be loved and treasured, not controlled.
Combat his expressive ways by being mysterious and a little secretive. Remember opposites attract. This type of vampire likes to talk and he loves a silent audience but there's a difference between rapt attention and the quiet perusal of a critic. Give him a small smile, like you know his game and find it charming but a little silly. He'll undoubtedly focus on you and press you for information.
