    What We Do In The Shadows has a funny answer to this question.

    It always felt unbelievable when an ancient vampire was super “with it”. At best they’d be too shitty and un-self aware that their ego would remain basically intact over millennia, otherwise any immortal is facing an eternity of future shock, derealization, and complete dissociation.

    The only way to really face eternity would to have such a disordered personality that the very idea of other people held no particular meaning.

      I mean, I don’t know if I’d still be interested in women after being a vampire that long, but I’d like to think so.

      Go to a country with lax sex laws (or at least enforcement), set up a bordello and feed on the workers while they sleep off their necessary highs for doing sex work for a horrible human (vampire) being.

      Plus, under the rules I’m fixating on mentally, drinking the blood of someone who is high will get the vampire high, and after hundreds of years plus immortality, I’m gonna get high at some point lol.
