Laughing before the tickling starts

[Wesker28]

Ah I see. It was his technique..

Guilty. If I know it’s coming, I’m usually laughing before it even starts 🫣

Yup. She said that she thought she was going to be able to convince him that she wasn’t ticklish. He eventually went just a bit harder on her ribs, stayed a bit longer under her arms and she lost control.

 

[Wesker28]

And then he stopped?

 

[LerLee]

And then he stopped?

She said that he tickled her for around 10-15 seconds and then stopped. She laughed really hard perhaps because she kept a lot bottled up inside.

 

[Wesker28]

Lol perhaps.

 

[Wesker28]

Does this work tickling still go on?

 

[LerLee]

Does this work tickling still go on?

It has died off recently with one
exception. One of her female coworkers will sometimes tickle her.

Has happened to me many times. In fact it may happen every time, but because my premature laughter is so quickly followed by actual tickling it doesn't get noticed. But it happens a lot. My wife is so deftly devastating when she decides to tickle me that as soon as her fingers flex in my direction the giggles start burbling forth. And her sister, actually, has some kind of a weird air-tickling superpower -- I swear that as her hands advance on me I literally feel the physical contact second before she reaches me.

One of the few times the phenomenon actually got commented on and exploited, though, was on this occasion (linked) with my wicked frenemy Sarah, and in that case I think it's because I was particularly vulnerable and defenseless and she had made it clear she was in no mood to be merciful.

There's also "tickling " from across the room, like a knowing glance or a phrase that can make people crack a smile.
Even saying the word around some folks causes smiles and wiggles, let alone threatening to touch or actually touch.
