I find that some places I used to be very ticklish in as a little kid (like under my arms) has diminished almost completely through the years, but places like my belly have stayed the same. has anyone noticed a change in ticklishness as the years go by?

Has your ticklishness decreased or increased over the years

I think my ticklishness has remained about the same over the years. I also think I totally underestimated my ticklishness when I was in my youth. I knew that my feet, underarms and some other classically ticklish areas were really ticklish but as I have grown older and been tickled much more as well as more proficiently, I have learned that I am ticklish almost all over and am actually extremely ticklish in a lot of areas.
Welcome to the forum, coco, and congratulations on making your first post! We're excited to have you with us!
I've definitely noticed a change in my ticklishness over the years. Many places are nowhere near as ticklish as they were when I was a kid, but others, like my feet, are far far worse now. I honestly don't think I could handle being tickled now as an adult if I was still as ticklish as I was back then!

I'm odd
I changed a lot actually. I started out being very ticklish, although only in a few places. Then for a few years as a teenager I was not ticklish at all anywhere, I believe I shut it off. Now I find myself being very sensitive again, only now it's in a lot more places. I'm not sure why it went like that.

Ticklish feelings are mental
This is only my secind post on here but I randomely was browsing this forum and decided to comment here. I read somewhere that unpleasant or tragic happenings in your past can lead to an individual being less ticklish when they get older. I don't remember the details unfortunately, nor do I remember where I read that. I suppose you could Google that information and possibly find something related, or the actual material.
Another thing to think about is that tickling is mostly all mental. A good example is when you tickle the air around and near someone's body but never actually tickle them, and the ticklee laughs and feels ticklish from this. So in a way you can make yourself less/more ticklish in your mind if you have the will power or "master yourself" so to speak. Just thought you all might find that interesting and maybe helpful.

See, this is interesting. When I was a child, my mother would grab me by the ankles and tickle torture my bare feet for twenty minutes at a time, almost making me wet myself. Dissapiontingly, I have found that I have almost completely lost that. I loved being tortured in that way but it just isn't really possible now. At NEST 2004, I got gotten by several of the fine ladies of this forum, but despite their best efforts, they just couldn't get me to do much more than grin. Since I have been with IrishGirl, I think I am getting slightly more ticklish as time goes on...she can drive me nuts sometimes. Overall, I rerally wish I could get the ticklishness of my feet back, that i had as a kid.

I think you hit the nail right on the head! I know that my ticklishness can go from moderate to OFF THE CHARTS when the 'ler takes the time to 'tickle my mind' before he actually tickles my body. This could mean telling some goofy jokes to get me laughing first, or chasing me around the house with playful threats of tickling when I'm finally caught.
If a 'ler is the 'strong silent' type, he isn't gonna get far with me. Silence is one leading killers of ticklishness today!! 😉

I've always thought of this as an interesting topic. I myself haven't lost any ticklishness, still a 9 out of 10. Two girls i've dated in the past that weren't ticklish mentioned that when they were younger they were ticklish beyond belief but when they entered their 20's that they lost it.

I really can;t say that it has increased,definitely not decreased as I myself am just as ticklish as I was when I was alot younger I think probably due to my pampering routine because it feels so wonderful rubbing lotion on my feet and all over and I cherish all the guys I know that are foot lovers,armpit lovers that we all know are trying to not let us catch them

Interesting topic...my ticklishness has decreased a little bit, but I'm still ticklish. When my feet are tickled, I still laugh. When my ribs are tickled, I still go nuts. Just in a different way I guess.
When you are a kid and you are tickled, it's absolute uncontrolled giggling. You go crazy and giggle long after the ticking has stopped. As an adult, maybe I am more controlled, or reserved...which is too bad. : (
Anyway, I'm still ticklish though...especially my feet!!!!
