Isolated From Other Ticklephiles...

I used to think the same of the "Great White North" tickling wasteland that is Toronto, lol.... but things have been coming around recently 😀 Don't lose hope, bud. You never know what can happen, just takes patience and persistence 🙂

Thanx love, for the validation~you know I think it might be all about MAKING NOISE! Look y'all, no one knows you're out there unless you let it become known. The key ingredient is YOU! How far are you willing to go to let your voice be heard? Crying about "lack of action" isn't going to endear anyone to you, and I apologize if this sounds mean, that's not my intent (or my way if you know me IRL.) I'm just saying, put yourselves out there~ be sweet and low-key about it: "Hey, I live in so-and-so and I'm wondering if anyone out there would like to meet for a light, no-pressure lunch (Munch!)"...

It's very funny, I get PMs from newbies all the time:"So, y'all get together once a month and have wild orgies with total strangers??" OMG NO! In fact, there's rarely any tickling at these events. The point is to go, have fun, have a drink or an app and get comfy with each other, so one day you're familiar nough to feel safe w/having your own gathering.. Talk to the real veterans of the art~Mods Mimi, Dan, dvnc or celeb members QB, Terrorizer, etc, for fun ideas on how to get things going locally to you, no matter where you are.

The thing is Steph is absolutely spot on here. I once, using a different sign on, tried to start a small cinema and coffee club in London for TMF type people. Predictably the only response I got was a couple of people telling me why it wouldn't work.

If I was twenty years younger, and didn't have so many other interests I admit I would try harder with this. Stephs point of friendship first, tickling second, however should be borne in mind for everyone. Especially as it is likely to lead to repeat/regular tickles.
