Ex Girlfriends, platonic friends, some family members, I'm not really that secretive about it, though I don't go shouting it from the rooftops 😀
Ditto for me.
One funny little story comes to mind. If I've told this before I apologize for the repetition.
One of my friends who knew of my obsession with tickling was this extremely hot Afghani chick named Crystal. She and I worked together during the late 80s at the Maryland computer center, and she has tickled me on numerous occasions. I can even recall one time I was trying to work on some rack mounted equipment but she kept tickling me every time I'd reach into the back of the cabinet. Though I was under the gun to finish, it was hard to get annoyed with her. She was devlish that way.
About 10 years later, Crystal and I were both working different jobs at the corporate headquarters in Tysons Corner, Virginia. She had since died her hair to a natural looking red and had a boob enhancement. She also dressed up instead of wearing sweats and jeans, so that now she was even more striking, and looked like she'd walked off the pages of a magazine. She was turning heads everywhere she went and most of the women hated her.
One day around 1997 she was in the large break room on the 1st floor during lunch time. There were about 20-25 people in there at the time. She was talking rather loudly and since most people were eating, her voice carried throughout the room. When she saw me enter she said hi to me and then with a laugh began telling the people at the table "Yeah, I remember when Drew used to bring his videos of girls tickling each other to the Maryland Center."
Nearly every head in that room turned and looked at me. I had only a fraction of a second to think of a good response. I just grinned from ear to ear and gave them all a huge enthusiastic wink while nodding my head. They busted up with laughter. I got my soda out of the machine and left.
We tend to think of the vanilla world as being so different from us, but they really aren't.
