Best Friend's Sisters

[SmashTV]

Now, I'm sure I'm not alone in tickling friend's sisters here, but I was just wondering if some people feel that this area is off limits. See, I've tickled my best friend's sister several times in recent years, particularly recently, as we normally meet up on the last train out of London on Friday nights. It's essentially a party for everyone on board, and as I'm close to the girl in question, we often get close, and have a mutual appreciation society (no, not like that!!! That's certainly off limits!!).

Anyhow, I'll often tickle her, but then feel guilty about it afterwards, as if I've somehow taken advantage of the relationship between me, my friend and his sister. Don't get me wrong, the tickling's great while it goes on (it's only brief), but I feel a bit guilty about doing so in the cold light of day.

Anyone else got any thoughts on this, or am I alone in feeling bad? Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Cheers, everybody,

Yep, I agree with Knox. You're worrying too much.

Sounds to me like she's an acquaintance on the verge of becoming a friend. She's not just someone who knows someone you know, ya' know? Seriously, maybe you're not as close to her as you are to her brother, doesn't mean you're taking advantage of her. It would be different if she said, "Stop, I hate that!"
Until then, how about describing some of your activities?

I agree with Sole. If your still worried about it, maybe you could talk to her about it ?

I'm very big on consent and respect, and I don't think you've got any problem here.

What you described is a textbook example of playful tickling between friends (ahh, if only there were such textbooks...). Nothing wrong with that.

You are definatly worring too much ol chap!
You have nothing to feel guilty about especially since she does not object to you tickling her! It has not appeared to hurt your friendship with her or her brother.
Don't place any undue or unwarranted stress upon yourself here.
Stop feeling guilty and just continue the way you are and have been. Any sudden changes to the extreme contrary will be what will hurt the friendship.
Have fun. Be happy. Be YOURSELF! One can NEVER go wrong there.

Thank You All

People, you're probably all right, I'm worrying too much. It's just pasrt of my psychological profile, I guess, I suffer guilt quite easily!! No idea why, but I do. Putting things in perspective, she doesn't seem to complain about it either....ah, what the hell, problem solved!!!
