I did it! I FINALLY did it. Saturday night, I told my boyfriend of a year and a half that I have a tickling fetish. After reading about quite a few horror stories of coming out about "our" fetish, I was terrified about telling him -- I had this awful feeling that he would react badly, or think of me as "weird". I had actually planned on not telling him at all, because I've never told anyone before -- save you nice folks, that is. 🙂
After he told me about how these girls had been tickling him on the trip he'd just come back from, I got very jealous and started to pout. Naturally, my poor boyfriend was confused. It was then I realized that I wanted to tell him about my fetish, but I had to use the rest of my night mentally preparing myself. After some prodding from him and some anguish on my part, I finally told him -- not only is he okay with it, he told me, "You could not have picked a cuter fetish."
So now he knows, and he says it makes a lot of sense. He's spent the last couple of days lightly teasing me about it, but in a good way -- he's tickling me a lot more now, and letting me tickle him more often too!
I just wanted to share my story, because it feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. He's the only person in my life who I've told so far, and I think he's the only one I need to tell. I'm out (so to speak), and it feels great!
