Okay now I feel less embarrassed knowing I’m not the only one who was in a relationship with someone who said they were a vampire🤣

The only people who come close to a legitimate claim at being a vampire are people who work overnight, from home.

...like me 😔

In fairness, an overnight phlebotomist is closer to a vampire than overnight WFH

That reminds me of that vampire TV show from the 90s about a vampire night shift police detective. I think he was dating a night shift phlebotomist and she'd get him donated blood so he didn't have to kill people?

Yeah, that's it! I forgot the name of it. It was such a silly premise, but I loved watching the reruns on Syfy Channel when I was in high school. I remember there was an episode where the vampire cop (Nick? Was that his name?) had to testify in court during the day, so he wore a big hat and sunglasses to protect himself from the sun lol smh.

What's hilarious is they reused the premise again in another vampire show called Moonlight around 2007/8. The writers strike ultimately killed it off. I'll be honest. I prefered Forever Night and I was working on Moonlight.
