Being around certain people can truly change a person.

Some people are like power sources; just being near them can recharge you. Interacting with them is effortless—you are yourself, no acting, no pretense, a single glance can be understood.

Some people are like vampires; just a few words can drain your energy. When chatting with them, you have to choose your words carefully, afraid of saying the wrong thing.

So when we talk about "being on the same wavelength," we're actually giving a name to our own exhaustion. It sounds sophisticated, but in reality—

It's about finding those who don't require you to please them. In front of them, you can let go of false enthusiasm, not need to force topics, and not have to run every sentence through your mind before speaking. It's that simple.

Really, encountering vampire-type people will really make you bleed. --- Where can I find power-type friends? Everyone around me is a vampire. --- Talking about being on the same frequency sounds nice, but actually it just means finding someone who doesn't have to put on an act. --- Those people who keep you on edge should have been deleted long ago. --- A relationship that doesn't require flattery is a real relationship; everything else is just consumption. --- Wake up, most people are vampires. Power-type ones are truly rare. --- I will directly block those who cause me to step on landmines with a single sentence. I don't have that energy.

Nowadays, who isn't a vampire? I feel like I just live among a bunch of energy leeches. Really, you can't find an electric person, only vampires who are better at acting. These words sound great, but in practice, who dares to truly be themselves?

Really, dealing with vampire-like people is exhausting --- Power source people are indeed scarce, I need to cherish them --- Being on the same frequency sounds awesome, but actually it just means not pretending --- This article hits me right on, I'm currently quitting those vampire friends --- Can I become a power source person? I feel like I only know how to drain others' energy --- I don't want to be cautious with anyone anymore, it's so annoying --- Being on the same frequency is comfortable, it's not that complicated --- Everyone around me is a vampire, I'm too weak --- That's right, but power source people really can't compete with a vampire's persistence --- Can't find people on the same frequency, being alone is much easier

Here are several comments with different styles: --- **Comment 1:** The analogy of power supply and vampires is brilliant. Everyone around me is a vampire haha **Comment 2:** Basically, it's about finding someone who doesn't have to act. How hard is that? **Comment 3:** Being in sync really matters. When you're with the right person, it's not tiring at all **Comment 4:** I feel like I've been drained too many times. Now I watch everyone with suspicion **Comment 5:** The most exhausting thing is having to think through every word. Truly **Comment 6:** Finding a power source is hard but worth it. Not everyone deserves your authenticity **Comment 7:** Honestly, most people are here to drain your energy **Comment 8:** So now I choose loneliness directly. It's better than being drained **Comment 9:** A look can understand the feelings—rare and precious **Comment 10:** Letting go of fake enthusiasm is truly a relief

It's so true, there are too many vampires like this around me. --- Power supply people are really scarce; when you meet them, you have to cherish it. --- No matter how good the same frequency sounds, it still depends on chemistry. --- What you said is correct, but the key is how to identify such people. --- I just want to ask, do these kinds of people really exist or are they idealized? --- Letting go of the fake enthusiasm feels amazing, so comfortable. --- To put it simply, it's about finding someone you don't have to pretend with; that's the hard part.
