And finding great success.....
Okay okay....so my level of success thus far probably has nothing to do with my charming ways of persuation, and everything to do with base interests and genetics, but what the hell. No one else can take credit here, so why not me? LOL
It started a few years ago when I was introduced to a new friend through a mutual one we shared. Our friendship blossomed instantly, due to our similar mind frames, and our love for 'ribbing' each other (swapping wits, in lamens terms). After our friendship reached a more intimate level, I came out of the closet with him concerning my tickling fetish. He was quite open minded about it, as I was expecting him to be given his interest in 'other' forms of BDSM.
Anyway, once he learned of my passion, he quickly picked up on the purpose of my 'ribbing', and wasted no time in dishing out the goods every time I smarted off in a form of instigation. One night when we were out alone and I was being particularly 'witty', he went so far as to lean over and whisper to me "Do I need to tackle you down onto the pool table and tickle the crap out of you, right here, right now?" The instant full body shivers that I experienced upon hearing that gave me the temporary belief that I had died and gone to heaven....lol. Of course, given the bar full of people, it did not happen. But the thought/threat alone was enough to keep me floating for the remainder of the evening.
I never thought our playful interraction was anything more then him 'obliging' me and my interests. I started to get the feeling there may be more to it back in December, when his wife (and my other best friend...the two of them are my closest companions outside of my marraige) was in labor and about to give birth to my Goddaughter. Once she was placed in stirrups and prepared for delivery, he took one look at her compromising situation and commented OUTLOUD "Heeeeeeeeeey, I can tickle your feet now and you couldn't do anything about it!" The look she gave him (or maybe it was the hole her eyes burned through his stomach at that moment) stopped him from actually putting his idea into action, but it set MY mind in motion. I thought to myself, "Only a TRUE ticklephile would get THAT sort of an idea in his head at such an improper moment!" I later told him so, and he just laughed it off, never confirming anything, one way or another. I eventually put the incident out of my head.
Upon returning from the gathering in Albany, I recited all of the incidents that took place for him and his wife, and expressed how much fun I had had there. They were a proper audience, relating how happy they were with the splendid time I had. The only personal comment issued from either of them at the time was uttered by the wife, who simply claimed she would have died if it was her who underwent the tickling I had endured (she is quite ticklish, and has always been a 'don't tickle me' type...even though she has never had any problems tickling ME at every opportunity!).
Yesterday, I think I may have finally seen (or heard?) the break-through I have been looking for. They called early in the morning to announce they would be dropping by for a visit, and asked me to attend to some local business with them. Once they arrived and we were out driving around, we sat in the car discussing a variety of topics. Out of the clear blue, the friend in question (who was sitting in the front seat right beside me) looked at me with a sly smirk and asked "So, you want me to tie you up to the bed and tickle torture you?" The fact that I did not swerve the car into the nearest parked vehicle upon hearing his suggestion remains nothing short of a miracle. His suggestion did not become a reality yesterday, but I KNOW the potential for it to happen eventually is there. Every time we get together, he never lapses more then five minutes without tickling me, yesterday being no exception to that.
While we did not act upon anything yesterday, we did eventually discuss the fact that I am hoping to host a gathering of my own here in Wisconsin late this coming summer. I had teasingly suggested they join us, and they both very quickly and heartily agreed! In fact, the friend in question showed great anticipation to the idea of taking ME down, or taking advantage of the fact I would likely end up tied and willing at some time during the course of the event. He even went so far as to tell his wife at one point, when she and I had manipulated him into doing something he did not want to do yesterday, that SHE could also expect to take her turn down on the mat at the gathering, so to speak. I expected to hear a lengthy refusal from her, but she floored me by merely giggling and saying "possibly".
So now here I sit, more adament then EVER about making my dreams of hosting a gathering later this year a reality. I believe I may in fact have converted him, and now possibly even his wife. She may need a little more work, but I think she'll be hooked the first time she gives it a go.
Anyway, I am sorry if I bored anyone with my recital of these events, but I HAD to get it out, and who better to share it with then those who would understand my happiness and eagerness in light of these recent events.
Have any of you ever found success like this among your acquaintances? Please tell us about it if you have! I'd hate to screw this up now that I have come this far, and I'd love to hear how some of you have managed to take it all the way to making it a reality, if that HAS ever happened.
Signing off for now.....
