I'm very fortunate that this has not happened to me. Every woman that I have built a significant intimate relationship with have accepted my liking for feet and tickling.marcus, I'm so sorry to hear about her reaction. I do hope that somehow you can come to some compromise with her over this.
As a general statement: Why does it seem that so often, people who have fetishes, are put down, if they happen to mention it to a significant other, who doesnt have the fetish? At the very least, even if the significant other isnt "into the fetish", he or she should realize that the person who does, needs support, and needs to hear something like "Okay, I understand, I'm going to try to accomadate you, but, get me used to it in small doses" Or.. "Dont tickle me every day, but you can do it, several times a week". The exasperated reaction, or weird look, to me, is very closed minded.
Good Luck. Please keep us posted on any further developments.

I don't go around telling everyone that I like tickling. Just like I don't tell people what colour my underpants are today. (truth is, I actually don't remember 🙂 )
