can tickling change a platonic relationship?

[SadCuzNotTcklsh]

If you a had a 'session' with a friend (not boy/girlfriend), has that changed that relationship forever? I mean in the way as "you'll never look at the other person the same way ever again.." type of way. and, is it worth it?

Well, if it is sexual to you, I guess it would be the same thing as having sex with that person!

I've done it before and it really didn't change anything, but when I did it I approached it as "We're gonna have tickle time for fun and laughs", not "This is alternative sex".

If you're one of those people that really really can't separate tickling from sex, it probably will, but other than that I really don't see it being a problem.

If I tickled the girl, got extremely aroused, and all that good stuff, then it might be hard to just treat her like a normal friend and not wanna tickle the crap out of her all the time. 😛

Other than that, ya never know, it could bring about other feelings that make you not wanna keep things platonic anymore, and it may or may not be entirely one-way, which could mess things up.

Never know what could end up happening I guess.

It would have to be a GF and it would have to be mutual,...and since it is sexual to me ...i would want to be in a long term relationship with this girl,...otherwise it,s like a one night stand .
To me lee's are very rare so i would prefer to nurture , and keep the relationship on going.

I wouldn't go that far. Tickling is a sexual thing for me, but it is in no way sex itself. That's probably one of the reasons why I love it, it's just so different, and so much fun.

Okay, it is not COMPLETELY the same thing, but doing ANYTHING sexual with a friend to me is just a no-go! It would definitely bring the relationship past friendship.

Not necessarially. I may have posted this before. I tickled a friend, Lora, during a massage when we were in college. She asked me to massage her, and as I was doing so, I tickled her feet. I then finished the massage, but afterward, our relationship was the same. We were still good friends, but not bf/gf.

My feeling is: While tickling can sometimes make a difference in changing a situation from platonic relationship to romantic, such isn't always true. There are usually other factors involved.

Maybe it's always easier for guys than for girls, too. 🙂

This is what i would of said exactly but TklGG has worded it better then i could of 😀

if you are talking about a 'session' my guess is you're talking about some intense tickling. like going through any intense experience with another human, more than likely, the relationship will change because you know more about each other.

It never had to have anything to do with relationships. Just being and NOT being often altered the way I looked at someone...

 

[proud2tickle]

yeah i look it like play fighting sometimes ur wreslting or ur tickling its flirty and well then things happen

 

[Maestro1874]

Yes, yes it can.

 

[TickVix]

it depends, but I agree. If both people look at it in the same light then great, most likely things won't get messed up, but if only one does, then there may be a slight possibility for things to get odd between the two.

Have you ever thought it might be vise versa: it might turn sex relationship into platonic one?.. Let's say if one of the partners start to prefer tickling over sex.

 

[FFT32]

It for sure is going to be different for eveyone. I can only speak for my self here by saying if I tickled anyone that I wanted to tickle, regardless of friend, girl friend, stranger, etc. that I would probably look to tickle them again after the first encounter. But thats just me.

 

[tkl-pen]

Since I don't consider tickling to be a sexual act, I don't think so. It'll be different for everyone, though, and I have come to realize that. If I tickle a girl with whom I have a platonic relationship, I want it to stay that way.

 

[BMoreTklr]

I think yes and no. I had a platonic friend allow me to have my first session with her back in the day when I first told anyone about this fetish of mine. She's was then and still is one of my best friends to this day, and it's still strictly platonic. On another note, another friend of mine that more than likely would have been purely platonic, got sparked into something else due to an impromptu tickling session in the movies. She's definitely a good friend of mine as well, but it just so happens she enjoys being tickled but also enjoys other things I do as well.......giggidy 🙂

Can it change a relationship? Absolutely.
Does it have to? No.

I had a platonic female friend a few years ago...she was very ticklish, and I took advantage of that every chance I could. Now I can't say I never got turned by tickling her, but even so, it never changed our relationship. I look at her the same now as I did before I ever tickled her.

We still remain friends, though she lives far away now. 🙁
