Do bed bugs stay on the people they bite?

In my experience....possibly.

The bed bugs in my current and previous apartments have bitten me many times a night on a regular basis. However, my girlfriend has never been bitten in our current apartment, and only a handful of times in our last. I can't say whether my location was more convenient, or if I was just more tasty to them. Then again, perhaps my girlfriends skin just doesn't react to the bites as much as mine.

Not a solid answer, but it's something.
