ok well last night, i met someone at a bar...after awhile of getting to know her i learned that she is a practicing wican that she knows alot about magic and mystical creatures and she believes that Vampires existed at some point in time. I have little knowledge about this subject and i didnt want to seem too judgmental so i didnt really have much to say about the topic. I have a feeling that i may see her again, it seems like her passion and i want to make it seem like im interested in what she is interested in. what should i say if this topic comes up again?

my advice to you, is instead of making it LOOK like you're interested.. either BE interested, or DON'T be.. but don't feign interest in something you don't care about..

if you're not interested, just make it known that you don't know much about it/don't really have an interest, but that it's cool that SHE is..

You can always google Wicca & do some research. If she brought it up, it's obviously important in her life. Wiccans cast good spells. If they do bad, it will come back 3x on them. Do your research & if you like the woman, don't sweat the small stuff.

i think she would be fun to hang out with. i think there are two worlds. one is visible and one is not. no one can define what the other web of power really is but scientists know it exists despite our lack of knowledge through things such as Dark Matter, for one example . If I were you, I'd have fun picking her brain and actually would find it refreshing to find a potential date with a lady who is not wrapped up in her appearance or playing hard to get (like most of hte ones I seem to run into lately).

I dont think she would have liked my response if i said what i was thinking about saying. I was going to say that i dont believe in Vampires, because it is against Gods will to drink blood from other people.

Just treat it like any religion or lifestyle choice (vegetarianism, sports nut, heavily into gaming, etc.). Do the person's beliefs and practices offend you? Is this person respectful of your views? Can you comfortably co-exist? If not, there you go.

it's up to you but do you believe that because of your upbringing/what your parents have instilled in you/because that is what you are expected to say from how you were brought up? If those are actually your own thoughts, then go ahead and say it. However, be sure that you don't come off as narrow minded or as a person who is too lazy to think for themselves. It's like when to strangers are in an elevator and strike up a typical conversation about the weather. It's what we've programmed ourselves to do and we don't put any thought into it. Just make sure you don't give her these types of responses. Put some individual thought into it if you really want this girl. if she's wiccan and proud...she's most definently open minded and would probably like the same traits in a potential b/f.

Ditto what J RR said.

The relationship is already doomed if you are beginning with lies and deciept. If you just want to get laid, tell her so.

well when i first saw her, i was not really attracted to her- i felt sorry for her though, because she was sitting alone and while i was talking to her i found her to be interesting- i would not have been able to tell that she was interested in such things just by the way she looked.
