I just wanted to say...

[Violetta]

That if you have close friends that you can come out to about tickling, totally do it. I came out to both of my housemates about it not long after we moved in. Both of them sorta knew about it, and they were very... understanding. So understanding that there are nights like tonight where I can count on them to just tickle me senseless. Seriously, it's totally worth it to tell friends about this.

 

[Excess]

Good for you! I can't really say for sure since I have no close friends, but I think it's great that you are able to be really close with someone like that.

 

[DarthGrinn]

Ya I agree 🙂 although I tend to limit my tickling activities to my gf, and hence, have no reason to talk about it with everybody I know... its good to be able to talk to people who matter in your life 🙂

Good for you...

I tried to talk about it to one of my gay male friends whilst drunk, because i noticed on his gaydar profile that he listed Tickling as a sexual intrest. It didn't go very far, mainly because we were drunk, and i think he's forgotten about it now! Oh well, at the time it felt liberating!

 

[Snail Shell]

Sammi had to come out to her roomies. They tickle her all the time anyway. 😉

J/k Sammi. We love you!

Can't agree more, Sammi. 😀 It's the best feeling in the world (most of my friends weren't even surprised - one even said "Oh, that'd explain a lot").

 

[Violetta]

It really has done a lot for me. Whenever I'm down or something, I can usually just count on them to get me laughing again. :laughing: And now that I'm not trying to hide it from anyone, it's become easier to just have conversations about it and speak my mind. Thanks for the support and kind words, guys. n_n I appreciate it.

Now that Sammi's housemates know, and are okay with it, guess who is tickled into doing the dishes *playfully winks at Sammi* (just teasing)

 

[shunt]

hey, i totally agree with you! i told some of my closest friends and its made my life so much easier and they wernt wierd about it or anything! Friends understand everything tis what there all about 😀

My opinion is a little different

One of the wisest things that has been said on this forum is that if you act like their is something wrong with your fetish, then people will tend to think that there is something wrong with it, too. If you act like it is completely normal (and to you, it is) then others will tend to think that it is no big deal, too. Much of public opinion is affected by what you are projecting and how you are projecting it.

Mustang, I agree with your first opinion, but NOT with this one.
And I also cannot agree with Sammy.
I told one of my best friends about my tickling fetish, in a very "natural" way: I suddenly showed him a tickling site I like, without doing or saying anything strange to him. I thought that maybe he will like that too, because he also loves to tickle women.
But the result was something totally else......
He laughed at me the whole day, and tried to speak off me of this fetish. The one nice thing was that he didn't ever made fun of me in front of others.
I didn't care about his opinion, but it felt BAD. After this I told him about I haven't given up on the tickling fetish and I never will.

My girlfriend and my ex-girfriends were much more appreciative. They know I love tickling, and they loved/love it too 😀

What I'm trying to say is that you shouldn't be so open about a tickling fetish at lots of people, except your partner or a close friend, because they may see you as a freak in the future. And believe me, in my eyes you are absolutely no freaks, but in usual people's eyes you can easily be.

Sammi-chan rocks the house :happy:

Ever stop to think maybe your friend was just, like, a jackass? :happy:

One of mt closest friends has just come out about his fetish to all my mates. They kinda thought he was weird and it sure as hell took me by surprise. I think it took guts to do what he did and I'm considering telling him he isn't alone on this subject.

 

[Camel26]

A handful of close friends know...I have trouble telling people that I'm friends with...I can be really touchy feely...not as much as I once was...but still...I don't need any of my friends thinking that they are turning me on if there happens to be playful contact...the only people I told don't think I'm weird, (my ler is particularly indulgent) but that, I believe, is because one of them tickled the shit out of me in high school and loved it, and the other tried to but I fought her off...and she just kinda knew after that without me having to say anything...regardless, I don't need to deal with telling too many more people...at this point, the only person who needs to know, already knows...and takes full advantage of that fact frequently...😉

I don't believe that there HAS to be a "coming out" for having a fetish...if that's how you want to have things, go for it...but it's such a personal topic...not everyone has to know in your life...I say feel things out, so to speak, for yourself and decide what you need in terms of friendly support...

[Hayden137]

yeah I agree Camel26. Sorry to be a complete noob on you guys and gals but... Can someone tell me how to sort my signiture out? And by "sort out" I mean actually possess one?

Much Love x

 

[Sockstickler]

No problem, dude. Just click on "User CP", then "Edit signature," then put in whatever you'd like. You've got more than ten posts, so you'll be able to do that.

well, i am glad u can. here in georgia, it becomes hard to tickle. i wish u were in my state so i could tickle u.be nice since i love foot tickling( and i bet ur feeties are cute too.)

 

[Abadon XXX1]

I agree as well Sammi. Only my closest friends know about my fetish. They're actually kind of cool with that.

 

[GEORGIATKLER]

SO "THREE'S COMPANY" WAS BASED ON SAMMI'S LIFE? COOL!

I Tried To Tell Other People Here At The Old Folks Home, But The Bull Horn Was Already In Use At Bingopalloosa. 🙂 I Think It Is Great If You Have Freinds, Family, Stalkers, Supermodels Etc.that Are Close Enough To Share Our Love The "t Thing" With.(grammar Police). It's Nice To Be Tolerant Of Others And Get The Same Respect In Return.

Please come back when you're 18. If your parents found out that you're posting here, the forum could get in a lot of trouble 🙁

 

[Reaper_666]

i've told quite a few ppl and good 4 u sammi

 

[Umojar]

I don't have anyone close to me that i would want knowing. It would be relieving to tell someone though I can imagine.

 

[Timewarp]

I don't know anyone outside of the fabrics of my mind...

so I don't really have that option.

 

[Cybertickler]

I wish I knew the kinds of people who would be accepting of it! I really have no interest in telling male friends unless it happens to come up in conversation, and every woman I have known thus far (save for a few exceptions, like IrishGirl and a couple others) in real life is the kind of girl who'd go EWWWWW TICKLING? OMFG YOU PERVERT! Fucking high school-esque melodrama bullshit. Yeah, I said it.

I really do wish I had a few local friends who were cool with it though. When I am having a bad day, I really wish I had someone nearby (Irish lives 35 miles away) who could just be a friend and cheer me up again.
