My one and only girlfriend reacted to it almost exactly as I'd hoped. It was early stage, and I wasn't very open with it yet, so I told her I was sort of embarressed about it, and she told me not to be. She said it was cute, and not really a big deal, just something I like. Although she HATED being tickled, she let me tickle her feet anyway, because she knew I liked it. 🙂 Boy was she ever ticklish! She couldn't ever keep still, especially when it came to toe sucking. Drove her mad. 🙂 However, she moved a while after, and we decided we couldn't have a long distance relationship. We're still great friends and talk all the time!
