Get the loss of Humans mug.human siphon noun
A person who steadily drains another's energy, time, resources, or emotional strength through a mix of tactics-some subtle, some obvious. A human siphon may use passive-aggressive behavior, guilt, manipulation, charm, pressure, conflict, neediness, or forcefulness to pull from others whatever they can get.
Once they create an opening-through sympathy, obligation, fear, attraction, or confusion-the extraction continues almost automatically, often leaving the other person exhausted, diminished, or off-balance without fully realizing how it happened.
