Lost Passions

[Big_Dogg85]

I have a question for my fellow TTers: most, if not all of us have some sort of passion in our lives that keeps us going. Some people over time begin to lose that passion and either recover it or lose it entirely. For those people who have lost and recovered a passion, any passion, in their lives, how did you do it? For those who have lost passions that have yet or may never return, how are you coping?

The reason I ask is that right now, I'm beginning to wonder if I'm losing my passion for tickling: I have been very thankful to have both 'lered and 'leed in both the real world and the cyber world but lately (over the last couple of months or so) I'm no where close to being as excited, or passionate, for tickling as I used to be... I'm hoping to get some insight, or even experiences, from anyone and everyone so as I can make the next determination in this development, whatever that ends up being.

I thank everyone in advance for reading. 🙂

Oh. Wow. Yeah... Well, after my brain was a jumbled mess and I had to re-everything again, I found that some things are gone, if they're not a large enough part of you, or you don't find it as valuable still.
The main struggle for me was - and still is - my relationship with my Lord. Before, I knew I was a Christian, but blip that was it.
But for anything, I've found that you have to reimmerse yourself in the same old acts you did: going to church related events, drawing, playing hockey, playing an instrument, or tickling I figure. If you leave it alone or far-off for too long, then it looses its old glamour and initial appeal. But, like riding a bike or playing an instrument, once you start trying it again it all comes back extremely quickly and easily. You just have to keep doing related activities of the same nature.
I hoped this helps, though I have no idea of exactly what you would have to do to get your old zeal back for this. Maybe a good 'lee session, tied down, or ler with the victim in that situation? No flippin' clue. I'm sincerely sorry man, and I really hope that none of my plethora of insults has harmed you at all. 🙁
And all this coming from a person who had to be coached and coaxed into swallowing once more. You name it, I've likely had to relearn to do it (if I knew it to begin with, that is).

Hey big_dogg85, I'd say don't sweat it, life ebbs and flows. So your zest for tickling has subsided alittle. I'm sure the zeal will creep up on you.."someday, sometime when you least expect it.....smile you've got your tickle thrill back" Besides- it's winter! The ladies are bundles up - killing any hope of a tickle

Hey! Maybe/ Hopefullyit's like SAD (Seasonal Anxiety Disorder). As the clothes she'd off from the heat it cones back!
*Just jumping on anything really. And like he said, don't make a mountain out of a molehill. If it's that important to you, it'll come back.. sometime. :super_hap *

No worries Dogg, the old feelings for tickling will return. Perhaps you just need one super special awesome jolt of tickling goodness to re-energize yourself.




I didn't have this happen to me, however this did happen to my cousin.

First off, my cousin is as close to a sex addict as one can be. The only redeaming factor is that he only sleeps with his girlfriend, but he does it alot from what I hear. Just a few months ago, in like..........late October he comes to me and starts talking with me (I've practically been his therapist since his birth because he could always trust me to give him advice) and he tells me that sex has become boring for him.
I do one of those overly dramatic head turns and I look at him wide eyed and say "Huh?!" He laughed and explained that sex had become boring for him. Now being a memeber of this fine forum I looked over at him and said "Do you just jump right into sex?" He said "yes". I facepalmed and said, "Dude, there's a thing called foreplay. Try it."
He looked at me all confused like and that's when I told him "Zygote (obviously not his name XD) I have a tickling fetish, that is an example of what foreplay is." He looked at me, said "nice" then thought about it for a second then said "Oh, you mean like bondage and stuff like that right?" I said "Yep. Accept it doesn't neccesarily have to be bondage, but it is a popular form of foreplay." He thanked me and from what he's told me, things have been working out with him and his girlfriend.


So I'm sure that you'll be able to reclaim that lust for tickling, Dogg. if not by an act of over the top tickly goodness, then over time ^___^

For unknown reasons, I lost my passion for tickling when I was around 19. I regained that passion soon after meeting my future subby hubby, whose love of leeing rekindled my curiosity and interest in lering, and the rest, as they say, is history. My advice, therefore, would be to find a partner whose love of tickling is strong enough to respark your own interest if that's the direction you want to go.

Sometimes we all need a little break.I had almost lost all care and passion about my singing and I just needed a break and now I can't stop singing.Sometimes we just change too and certain things that once interested us don't anymore.

What QueenBee just said. There was a time when I never went anywhere without a camera. Then for a while, I had no interest. I took no pictures. I had a roll of film sit in my camera, undeveloped, for a year. Then for some reason I got back into it.

Feeling depressed will definitely make everything, even things you love, look like "why bother?". The grey and cold of winter are not to be underestimated in contributing to this condition.

It's true depression is a horrible thing.it will rob you of the things you once loved and any will you have to live.It is a terrible mental disorder.

Everybody needs a break, buddy, including the biggest lee on earth, yours truely. And then there are the times I get amazingly lerrish and Senshi is so confused (happily) he doesn't know what to do with himself......my point is, they're right, it ebbs and flows, just like any passion. I LOVE reading, but last semester I had five courses and didn't have time to even think about it

I'm currently 3xx pages into Brisinger 😉

Well like everything else in life your passions ebb and flow. I would say that unless you are truly obsessed with tickling you will go through phases.
