friends & tickling in general.

[skittlesBOY]

Anybody here hide your likeness for tickling from others that do NOT share your love for tickling like when you visit this site??? I DO when my friends from school like come over to spend the night or something like once i'm in this site<-- & i see one of my friends coming to see what i'm doing i close of this site fast,so my friends can't see & laugh at me or something crazy like that. Do ya'll guys/girls think i should be doing this every time? or not even care what my friends think of me for what i like?

Mmmmmm! cheesecake GOOD🙂

I hide if from everybody but potential ticklees

Naturally hiding behind a computer screen we can all confide in our fetish with each other. But in real life I keep it from my friends and family. The only ones who ever knew were my ex-wife and former g/fs. I have some very close friends but am not willing to take the chance of their misunderstanding. Non ticklers look at this stuff as being sadistic. I imagine my friends wanting to know why I would not want to beat and mutilate a female, if I am willing to inflict great discomfort in the form of tickling. They could never see the pleasure on the part of a ticklee. I know because I HAVE discussed S&M with a couple, and they rejected any argument about consentuality or pleasure derived. My advice is do what ever you are comfortable with. All your friends can live without the information. What will one of you friends think of you when you look at his sister or girlfriend? If you were asking me, I would volunteer nothing. Others may feel different, but that is how I see it.

I can say, don't care what your friends and your family think, but that would be totally unrealistic. The truth is, we are all human and we all feel the need to be accepted for who we really are. I know there are some people on this forum who are totally open and honest in some aspects, where others are embarrassed or cautious and want to keep their love for tickling a secret.

My advice is similar to Mysterytic in a way. You need to do what makes you feel comfortable. Don't rush anything.

I have two best friends and it took me a very long time to tell one of them about my love for tickling. (haven't told the other one yet) It didn't bother her at all. In fact she actually wants to attend a gathering just to see what it is like. And I know that she would love it, too. (I'm not saying everyone will react that way, of course.)

My other friend? That is something that will take time. First I've got to tell him that I love him, but that's a whole 'nother forum.

Don't feel as if you are doing something wrong because you are choosing not to disclose this information to your family and your friends. Frankly I don't think it is any of their business. But take your time and when you are ready to share, just let it go.

Until then,
Love, Laugh, and Tickle

A few close friends know, only after I ascertained that they would not think any less of me for it or, more importantly, feel that sort of knowledge would create weirdness between us.

Also, all of these friends are female. I have not told my best friend as of yet not because I fear how he would take it, but simply because there are certain things a guy doesn't wanna know about another guy. If he found out by accident I would not be embarrassed, but just like I wouldn't want to know what turns his motor, I'm sure he doesn't wanna know mine.

You and I are in the same boat..I to hastily close the screen if anyone comes into my room when I,m scanning through tickle pics and so on.
True I fear being embarressed by possibly having to explain why there is a girl screaming at the top of her lungs while some guy or girl wiggles his/her fingers across her sensitive body..But the way I also see it is that I owe no explanation for liking tickling just as I owe no explanation for the Tennessee Titans being my fav football team or liking NASCAR or(well you get the idea)
Fact is that we don,t have to run out and preach to everyone that we love tickling..Would we run out after having doggy-style sex and tell everyone..Would we proclaim the the world that we just shaved our pubic hairs..I DEARLY HOPE NOT...
Everyone has skeleton in the closet that not everyone needs to hear about..
If you wanna tell them about it..There,s nothing wrong with that..
If you wanna keep it between you and the bed mattress..That,s our God-given right..
CAN I GET AN AMEN OUT THERE IN TICKLETOWN!!!
Thanks for listening to my sermon..;-) Until next time..

I agree with Sunrise on this one.
If you feel comfy disclosing, then great. If not, then don't because although we hope people are open minded, you never can tell how someone will react. They may love it too, they may be indifferent, they may think it's weird, or they may even ridicule you and that can be painful. It's easy for someone here who discloses everything to say that "if they are your true friends it won't matter to them." But the real world doesn't operate like that. I do get pretty annoyed at those who post here who say it's ridiculous to hide it, blah blah blah, you have no guts, blah blah blah. That's all a bunch of crap. Someone can tell you how to tie shoes, but they can't tell you how to walk in them if they aren't wearing them. So let your own mind and conscious decide about how you feel towards disclosing because no one can tell you whether it's good or bad to do so, no matter what kind of relationship you have with others.
In essence, sharing your tickling 'fetish' is about as personal as disclosure can get in this world. So be careful who you do express it to and for what reasons.

speaking as someone who just a few months ago started getting bolder about my love of tickling, I can honestly say that 80% of my friends know that I like to tickle. now, my family is a whole different matter. none of them know and I want to keep it that way. that's why I'm only on here at school!!! LOL I would say just share what you feel like sharing. the bottom line is, you have to be comfortable with yourself and all aspects of who you are. Once you reach that level, all things will come together when the time is right. Just be yourself and proud of who you are. 🙂

Personally I don't care who knows about my love for tickling.
I will not necessairally HIDE it but I will not volunteer such info out of the blue. IF it comes up somehow in conversation of topics related to kinkiness and or fetishes, I will be open with it without hesitation or regret. Alot of my friends know a few don't.
Those that do know think it is fine and in some cases think it is great and fun! A few couples I know as friends have even asked to borrow my bag of goodies to use on each other! Those who don't know, either don't because it has just never come up or I know they would not care of that sort of thing.

Someday the world will know about me and my tickling interest....someday....🙄 🙄 🙄 😱

 

[bass]

personally, ive only shared the secret of my tickling fetish with one male friend, and thats just because ive known him since third grade... and much to my liking, (not in a gay way, im straight) he was the same way... but on the female side, i think there is only one girl that im pretty close with that doesn't know about my fetish... my closest female friend knows all about it, as does another, and another, and another, and another, etc etc etc... they all say its cute and different...

so its not bad dude... i mean if you are ashamed of it, then hide it... but otherwise, if the person is your friend, they may not like it, but they will accept it and treat you no differently...

like i told some of my female friends about my other fetish, the foot fetish... they didnt treat me any differently... some of them were like 'oh feet are nasty' but they didnt change how they felt about me... others were like 'oh thats cool... i love my feet' or 'i have cute toes' so ya know... it all works out...

and sure people may laugh at you when they find out, but so what??? forget what people think man, its all about you... if you have a thing for tickling, and thats how you feel, i wouldnt hide it... so ya... thats my input... hope it helps you out dude
