Chrome auto suggested tickling and everyone found out about my fetish..advice?

[tickling=feet]

My friends typed in 'ticking' to watch a video on chrome and in all of its wisdom gave a TON of tickling link suggestions. They obviously went...what?? And proceeded to clips4sale where they really went...WHAT? Clips4sale as many of you know have many other fetishes on the front page such as peeing fetish. Im not judging anyone with a fetish. I mean who am I to judge but that really could throw someone off.

Now I am looked at differently from people who cannot understand. I know now to use private browsing and to erase cookies. Just wanted to see if anyone else had this occur and what they did about it?

I think we all, at some point in our lives, have been "caught" by other people. What I've discovered is that for the most part, its far worse in our own heads than it is in anyone else's. I'd shrug it off, be safer in the future, and move on.

I had a similar experience a couple of years ago when there was a malfunction with YouTube. My friend logged onto the site. A couple days earlier I was watching a sample clip that some producer had posted. When my friend opened the site it just automatically started playing that clip. I basically shit my pants and started babbling, "I don't know what that is, I don't know why they're kissing each other's feet, obviously I'll have to get my computer fixed in the morning". My friend said, "Naw man, I think you got a foot fetish." He could see I was embarrassed so then he said, "Eh, no big deal. I know lots of people with foot fetishes." So it turned out it wasn't that big of a deal.

Like tkltoy said I think it's worse in our own heads than we think it is. You say you're looked at differently by people who can't understand, but you're real friends will stick with you even if they don't understand.

If you didn't own up to those links maybe you can play it off as a random coincidence? Maybe drop into a conversation somewhere that you had more kinky links pop up and make a joke about how you should probably cut back on watching pornhub or something? People wont think twice about it.

If you were totally outed as having a tickling fetish, best thing to do is move on from it. If people bring it up, turn it round back on them 'yeah well, what can I say, I'm amazing in bed' or 'girls dig a man with skills' etc. If friends really dig in about it, be honest with them 'can we cut the kink stuff, thats my sex life alright'. They'll haze you a bit then drop it.

Back in my early 20s I came into my bedroom at a house party to a room packed full of mates browsing my tickle porn collection with my then drunk girlfriend. Lost a few friends shortly after, gained a few more later and down the road had several rather amazing experiences from it. At the time you feel like its game over, later on come to terms with it, and when your and old muppet like me, you look back and laugh at how silly the whole thing was lol. Hope it all sorts out well for you!

Just admit to it, then challenge them to admit what their kink is. Of course, they'll say they don't have one, so just tell them they're full of shit, everyone has something that turns them on and then say it's probably weirder than yours! Put them on the defensive. That will probably shut them up about yours.
Oh yeah, and if they don't shut up, tell them you'll find out what theirs is sooner or later...

Also, I'm curious. Why did your friends type "tickling" into Chrome? You say some of them were judging you but what were they looking for?

This is why I don't let others use my computer.

They typed in 'ticking' like a clock

Indeed, the only other person who uses my computer is Goddess Shelly, who obviously knows all about my erotic interests.

If they ask you about it, and if you don't want to share your actual fetish proclivities with them, the thing to say is "Oh yeah, I was curious, some of that stuff is a hoot." Then again, from what you describe, I'm not even sure that their search results were affected by your proclivity. I think it may have been what they'd get if they searched "ticking" on any computer and the search engine imagined they were really trying to search "tickling." So I don't think they've learned anything new about you at all.

I thought that was going to be the case too! I didn't think anything of it. But when it says 'tickle abuse' then 4 links to clips4sale there wasnt much I could say

 

[FeatherEndeavor]

From now on you could use one browser for Clips4sale, TMF, Fetlife, etc. and then use another one for everything else. I've heard people on here mention that they do that so when friends ask to use their computer they can just open the vanilla browser.

Just own it. Trying to make up some elaborate story is just going to embarrass you more.

 

[ticklegirl2323]

Wow. If I found out that my male friend was into serious tickle bondage...*Biting lip* I would be insanely turned on...

 

[tksleepwalker]

This has happened to me a few times in the past. I just ignore it, hope that they didn't notice. maybe take back control of the keyboard to "input better search keywords". 100% of the time no one mentioned anything after a few "suggestions" or "browsing history" showed up.

I always got worried about people finding out or commenting on it, and always had a ready ready response in my head of the "ya, im kinky, deal with it!" type. but so far, no a single conversation took place about what they may or may not have seen.


Nowadays, I just use the "Guest User" account on my mac for those purposes. Even if it was just for checking the time.

Most people won't put much too much thought into it. So you have a tickling fetish, most people won't care. And for all you know, your friend is a pedophile lol. Point is, everyone is into something weird. I was fixing my friends computer one time and backing up his hard drive and found some weird pictures he had sent his girlfriend. And the pictures i found were a lot weirder than my tickling fetish, trust me.

Nobody with half a brain is going to tease you, harass you or lose respect for you over something like this.

 

[tklpkl]

own it....and keep your chin up while owning it

 

[leeds]

I remember when I was teaching my student biology, I had to type in AQA (the UK exam board) in front of her, I typed in the first letter A and i think chrome suggested Adultwork (a UK Escort service website)!

Aghhhhhhhhhh!

Someone from here (still don't know who) found my real facebook and sent messages to some of my "friends" who were close friends, family, coworkers, etc. The messages contained links to my profile and posts I made here.

I got a few raised eyebrows and odd questions, to say the least.

I also was shitting bricks for a few days.

While I'd love to know who the asshole was who did that, I'm kinda glad it happened because there wasn't anything I could do to change the situation. I had to change my feelings and attitude about my being into what I'm into.

Granted, I'm not gonna call my mom or my boss up and be like "Hey! Guess what turns ME on?!" but if people find out through other means (forgetting to erase my browser history on my phone or tablet, getting random weird messages from people, etc) so be it. If they are going to treat me differently, be cruel, or shut me out because of something that has nothing to do with them and is harmless, then that's a blessing in disguise as well; showing me who is a narrow minded prick that I don't need around anyway.

Now, I'm pretty chill about the whole thing. I only tell those that I am interested in playing with, but I'm not very ashamed of being into tickling either anymore.

I...would fucking die...but not before I found out whoever did that shit...Such a dick move.

I agree, but meh. Had it not happened, I might still be somewhat closeted about it and not have had the great experiences that giving less fucks allowed me to have.

When you realize what some people crave, and that far beyond the ability to resist the temptation- stealing women's underwear from laundromats or off clotheslines, surreptitiously taking upskirt photographs in shopping malls, setting up concealed videocameras in department store changing rooms, paying to be beaten, molesting children, peeking though bedroom windows at night, compulsively crossdressing in public, having human waste 'bestowed' upon them fresh from the source- this is an incredibly harmless interest.

Consider yourself fortunate that your kink is so benign.

 

[lancashirelad1]

just be honest and laugh about it, real friends may rip you for a bit but it will be old news very quickly. Plus, as has been said above, everyone has their own kink and as it goes tickling is quite a tame one

 

[release7]

Own it. Thats really all there is too, real friends will understand and refrain from judgment. Think of it as a blessing in disguise. Who knows you might find out one of your friends is into it is as well, i was actually outd the morning after a big party, we were all still asleep N had piled on the pull out couch, i ended up at the bottom by two of my girl friends feet, (heaven needless to say on the count they are both gorgeous) and i woke up before everyone else, it was a heavy night of drinking so I felt in the clear to try some sleepy tickling or however you wanna phrase it, the first girl is actually extremely ticklish and as soon as i touched her foot she buried it, game over. So I played it safe and waited awhile before going to the next girl, i must of had balls of steel that morning Cuz i faked some toss and turns until her feet were inches from my face, i had got some nice reactions and decided i had one shot for this and repositioned myself so her feet were actually on my face and lightly went up her sole with my tongue to the base of her toes, the moan she made and the way her bodyjerked i knew i had woke her up, i was mortified and thought my life was over(this was in high school) me and her were only good friends never anything sexual but her feet are so pretty i couldnt help but be attracted. I rolled over and pretended i hadnt done anything when i felt her foot back in my face, i couldnt believe it, i thought maybe she stretched out Nd didnt really wake up when she honestly whispered, "i never said stop" complete miracle, come to find out she already knew i was into feet/tickling i guess i wasnt as discreet as i thought always looking at her feet, she ended up telling me she wasnt into it but just let me get away with it and when i licked her feet she actually lines it, needless to say many many foot massages followed. Hope it helps, sometimes great things come where we least expect them
