Does your love of tickling ever make you feel out of place in society?

[Ticklish_Cop]

So there I was, sitting in the dentist's chair. The dental hygienist is cleaning my teeth and she asks me if I've ever used a Sonicare elecrtic toothbrush.

"Of course I have", I thought to myself. "Just not on my teeth."

She goes on to explain it's virtues to me, while I start thinking about all of it's other uses. She's telling me how it can really help remove the plaque from my back teeth. "That's nice," I thought to myself while I was thinking about the time I was rolled in a blanket and duct taped, laughing my head off while a sonicare toothbrush was being used on my feet.

So I guess my question to the group is: Do thoughts of tickling interrupt your normal life sometimes and do you ever just stop and think, "What the hell is wrong with me?"

This stuff happens to me daily. And all I can say is I feel sorry for everyone else who doesn't get to have as much fun as we do. I'm not much into analyzing why I am the way I am so I just go with it. I enjoy myself and I don't feel weird about it, although I do have days when things all seem to point back to tickling.

The other day I was going through my recently visited websites and I came upon this site which in my eyes I thought read ticklemaster.com and I was like what the heck is that, I don't know any site like that, but my eyes continued to return to it. I finally clicked on it to see what it was and low and behold it was Ticketmaster.com, LOL, but no matter how many times I looked at it I saw ticklemaster. Go figure.

For those of us into tickling, I believe this is likely a pretty regular thing. It comes to mind at odd times on occassion and can be funny. But, I wouldn't be concerned about it unless it's actually interfering with things. Think of it like something else you enjoy...movies, a ball game, whatever. Those things come to mind when something reminds us of them. But, we don't question ourselves then. It's simply a matter of coming to accept that there is nothing wrong with the fact that we enjoy tickling. It's an interest we enjoy...like anything else.

Not at all- just a part of life

Personally I never wonder what the hell's wrong with me, because I already know, but it doesn't have to do with tickling.

There's nothing wrong with you -- you just get to be one of those people with a secret identity!

 

[luvgirlsfeet]

It happens to me all the time espcecially if it's a girl who is talking to me that I have often wondered what it would be like to tickle her

same here.

Yeah! What SHE said!

Words of wisdom that it's taken me years to master! I used to feel SUPER self-conscious about all this, back when I was sure I was "the only one" and that I was weird for this. Not anymore, baby! I mean, I don't exactly shout it from the rooftops, but I don't shy away from it anymore, either. This is who we are... if they don't *get it*, joke 'em if they can't take a #@%&. 😀

Whenever I type the word particular I ALWAYS spell it as "partickular" first then always have to go back and fix it!

And a small chill runs down my spine when the word is said by a nice looking lady...

The other statement that makes me do a double take is, "oh that tickled me pink", or "I was tickled to hear blah blah"


Speaking of dental hygenists, I was at the dentists not to long ago and the gal was doing her thing but her angle to mine was that I was always looking up the sleeve of her dress at a VERY Deep ticklish looking armpit...I made sure my hands stayed over my crotch area that day...to hide my vivid imagination!!!

Yeah, I still grapple regularly with the "why am i this way". A little research indicates that not even medicla science really knows the answer. What is pretty clear is that all paraphilias are pretty stubborn and don't respond well to treatment (other than medications whcih supress the libido in general). Wouldn't presume to speak for anyone else but if there were a pill to take to make my sexuality more "normal", I'd tak it. There isn't, so I more or less accept myself as I am.

Yeah, somtimes you look at another person, and all you can think about is tickling them.. lol, heck I feel kinda wierd talking to you guys like this.

There are many things which have contributed to my feeling out of place in this vapid society of ours. Desiring to hear the laughter of someone next to me, and inducing it by manual means sure ain't one of them.

 

[Ticklish_Cop]

Tommy,

All of that is the same for me too. With me, it's when I type the word artickle. There I go again. Article. See, I knew I could do it.

And to everyone else...thanks. It's good to be able to come home here and talk about this stuff. It's been part of me since I was a little kid. So I'm not really upset about it. I've certainly learned how to live with it. But sometimes I just have to chuckle to myself about the things I think about when others around me are talking about something else completely.

 

[terorizer]

No pun intended, but my off-color/off-center machinations tickle the hell outta me. And when it occurs, I usually think to myself, "such a waste!" Such a waste that more don't have these feelings. Sure, I know a lot of folks would think me strange or weird if I shared my thoughts at that particular moment, but that just makes me think it's a shame they DON'T get it! Of course, it also makes me SO appreciate and value the beautiful people like yourself that DO get it! GROUP HUG!!!

 

[feetclimax]

i dont ask myself "what the hell is wrong with me" because to put it simple, there isnt anything wrong with me! The only questions i ask in these kind of situations are "what the hell is wrong with society and its ridiculious barriers of acceptance, what is so good about being plain and normal anyway?".

 

[Tklelicious]

loved the post!

some great stories. made me think of my dental assisting days...now i'm embarrassed to think of what went through the minds of my patient's ! LOL the doctor used to show little kids how the drill worked and use it on their fingertips and the kids always said,"EEEE, that tickles!" funny words in a dentist office. btw, that's quite a comfortable restraining chair 🙂

 

[EvlJester]

I dont ever think of being out of place in society, cause i tickle smurfy in public

I was dwelling on this question just today. I have realized after all these years that tickling is obviously more in the forefront of my mind than virtually everyone I know. So while I would love my wife to tickle my feet every day it just isn't going to happen. I find myself with tickling on the brain almost in every situation and this used to bother me. Not any more. Like many others in this thread I accept that tickling is part of my hard-wiring and I can't change that. What I can do is control myself so that it does not interfere with the rest of my life. It is not always easy and not everyone can do it, but its just me. When I was younger tickling made me a fun-loving guy who was always laughing. Later on it made me moody as I tried to repress and adjust to my responsibility filled adulthood. Now I am having fun again and I expect it to just keep getting better as I loosen up and relax and enjoy what life is giving me.
