Tickle Anticipation
Tickle anticipation is a delicious part of tickling. There are times when it helps me prolong the torture. There is never any silent laughter, and my wife never has any difficulty talking (hence begging for mercy) through her lauging. She rarely screams in tickle anticipation, at least not until the last second when she knows it isn't anticipation any more, but the real thing.
Usually, if she notices by my look that a tickling is upon her she starts by ordering me to leave her alone. When I get my hands on her she will often start to giggle. It's often a wrestling match from there, yet the closer I get her to a helpless tickle position, the harder she laughs and the faster she is talks.
If she is racing me to the bedroom to lock me out, it's fun to time it so I prevent her just as she is closing the door. Then I get a fun laughing scream on the other side of the door that degenerates into laughing as I slowly push the door open.
Sometimes I get her face down on the bed. If she just has a bra on her upper body, you should hear her when I unhook her bra in the back.
Same when I have her face up, but her arms are pinned up over her head under my legs. I tickle for a few seconds just to get her primed, then often raise up my hands and make her watch as my tickling fingers descend. We then have a SERIOUS case of laughing woman, even though there is no contact between fingers and female.
Tickle anticipation is a fun part of all this in my estimation. Good article. Thanks for linking it.
