Would you put yourself in a position of a negative energy exchange?
Or vice versa.
I personally know one person who I think is a negatively polarized adept individual. He has amassed wealth and power, and he can show compassion when it relates to himself. I can take him in small doses (though I have only had contact very rarely), as he is very intelligent and it's fun to talk to him. There is no "discussing" because he is always right, but he loves to debate and so do I (for different reasons though some may be the same).
He can't sway me into agreeing with him if I don't. He can't control what I think or do. So there is no exchange of the sort I think you mean. It simply isn't energetically possible. It's not so much that I am polarized positive, because I make no such claims. It's more that I make conscious decisions. And I do not consciously choose to give my power away to someone or something else.
The road to victimhood, in my opinion, begins with conceding that someone else is an authority over yourself. Another thread here addressed gurus, and this applies to them. You can learn from a so-called guru (or a negative adept, or a 2-year-old child, or anyone or anything for that matter), but to give your power away to them is another story.
Unless you want to experience powerlessness, lack of accountability or responsibility, and victimhood, I see no value in this idea.
On the other hand, if I understand this idea, to purposefully put one's self in catalytic situations with persons who create chaos or trigger continually or otherwise attack consciously or unconsciously, seems unwise in that it does not sound balanced. When dealing with catalyst, I think it is better to stay as centered and balanced as possible, not ignoring the catalyst but dealing with it in a way that promotes understanding and well being, otherwise the danger is that of being reactive, defensive, and even more blocked.
