Share your Success Stories of Sharing your Fetish

[NickJ]

Good Morning...I hope everyone is staying healthy and safe.

I was reading the thread about "Nightmare" stories with great interest. I am very sorry for those who worked up the courage to share their "thing" (I've always referred to it as "my thing"), only to have it blow-up, or worse.

I have 'come out' several times and, fortunately, it has never been a nightmare. It's not always been a success (lots of trial and error), but never a nightmare. And some instances of success.

I first came out to my first wife...a few years into our 10 year marriage (5 years too long! 🙂). The situation was kind of forced on me...we would sometimes have a 'tickle fight', and my wife would notice that this aroused me, to say the least. She told me she thought that I was getting turned on by being tickled...I had to come clean that it was her ticklishness that was turning me on. I explained that i was aroused by both tickling a female, and a female in nylons.

She was cool with it for a while. I love hearing stories about others being tickled (especially in stockinged feet), and she would even make some stories up for my benefit/pleasure. She even once surprised me on our anniversary - I came home to find she had tied herself to the bed while wearing only a bra and pantyhose; it was a very happy anniversary indeed.

There was one problem: she was a control freak. She had to control everything, including when she would play to what I wanted. Her need to control everything lead to the demise of our marriage. But the experience of 'coming out about my thing' gave me the courage to do it again.

Another success: as my divorce was processing, I had an affair with a young girl that worked for me (I know, I know....but it seemed like a good idea at the time). I was in my 30s, she was in her early 20s. She was infatuated with me, and would do anything to please me. Oh, and on a scale of 1-10, her feet were a ticklish 20. She was almost too ticklish, and she was up for anything. When I shared that tickling turned me on, she was thrilled to be so ticklish. This is back when women wore nylons as a matter of course, so there was lots of fun to be had. And we had it. She was a great girl in many ways, and if she hadn't been my 'rebound relationship', who know what might have happened. Anyway...(There was one problem here...a topic for another day. She truly was too ticklish. I couldn't tickle her for very long...even though I'd have her restrained in some way...because she would literally scream with laughter. She would've been great for a video, but not always so great for any kind of prolonged session).

Between her and my second marriage, I had about a half-dozen semi-serious relationships, and now that I think of it, I came out to almost all of them. None of them went screaming out the door (at least not right away 🙂). Three chose to ignore it (not good, in many ways), while two were happy to indulge me (I remember a very sensual encounter on a couch with one of them, early in the relationship, when I felt composed to whisper that tickling someone turned me on; her immediate response was an inviting whisper: "I'm very ticklish!").

And now, years later, I am married again. And my wife...loves to indulge me. She's a wonderful person, beautiful inside and out, and she also loves to indulge me. She loves to say the word "stockings"...as in "there will be stockings in your future". The situation arose for me to share 'my thing', and she was so interested...and willing to please. It helps that there is a certain "thing" that I do that is a big turn on for her, and we are happy to please each other.

So, it's not always a nightmare. It's not always a dream, but sometimes....

Please share if you've had a good experience 'coming out about your thing'...

Very cool positive stories! It's about time I read something like this on here. Really, I don't personally have a whole lot to share because once I "came out" 24 years ago, I was out for good. As in, if I ever sense a relationship of any kind in the beginning stages and we are talking sexual stuff, I am up front in the very beginning about my fetish with foot tickling and how I need it to get anything going in the bedroom 99% of the time.

If they can accept it, then that's great and I move forward. If they can not, I back off and end what's brewing right away to not emotionally lead on the other person or myself knowing that it would never work out in the long term.

But my one and only story about "coming out" was when I was briefly involved with this woman during a crossroads point in my life during the fall of 1996. She was about 5 or 6 years older than me and recently separated from her husband. She was very opened sexually and we just got along on every level (same music interests, movie interests, etc). To be honest, she was a pure mid - late 80's era looking gal in every way that didn't change with the times (and she was proud of it lol).

When I came out to her, she was so inviting it was like a wet dream at the time. She told me to tie her to the bed and just cut loose, tickle torture her feet and jack my cock all over while I do it! I remember she was wearing these leppard print flat shoes and sheer black nylon stockings with toes painted bright red. Also she was off the charts ticklish. I'd say she was an 11 on a scale from 1 - 10. I started on her nylon feet and nearly came without even touching myself. I couldn't believe this was happening! Then once I got down to her bare feet I went to town and came so hard all over her feet while doing this it was almost something out of an X rated comedy or something.

Then of course after she rested following the hardcore sadistic torture I put her through, we did the "deed". Following that, she told me to never be ashamed at what I like or who I am when it comes to anything. Sex, opinions in life in general...just anything. She also said something to me that changed my life forever and made me the better person I still am today. And that was "if people can not accept you for who you are, you don't need them in your life". And I live by that word of advise. If it wasn't for her young child having an issue adjusting to a new man in mommy's life, I very well may have still been with this woman today. So there's my long drawn out one and only positive story that changed me forever 🙂

This was me asking an old school friend to trying a shoot. She accepted.

I cant say I ever really "came out" in the sense of saying it outright...the partners I've played with just figured it out, I guess. I wasn't shy about it.

So...

When I was young and single, I spent of lot of time playing with bored, married women who considered extended tickle sessions to be an acceptable way of "foolin' around" without calling it cheating (I didn't care; after all, I wasn't the one married to them).

A few years later, I was helping coordinate Renaissance Faires, and found a ton of willing victims among the volunteers; wenches (used to work the bar booths and sell kisses...was a while ago), character performers, and of course, some of the belly dancers (dear God, I love the bellydancers). Dated a few of them over the years, married one - still with her.

As, to exes and the "what if they tell people?" issue, I've only had one ex that did; my first wife. A few months after we split I reconnected with a few of her friends (at different times, of course) who did ask, "So, she said you had a Tickle Fetish....I'm ticklish...how come you never tickled me?" Maybe there were some who thought it was weird when they heard, but I never knew about it.

I have yet to have what I would call a bad experience revealing my foot & tickling fetishes. In fact, one time a very cute girl back in my high school days told me (completely out of the blue) that she loved having her feet tickled. I have a story about that experience in the stories section.

When I was 14 I was tickle massaging my aunt’s stocking feet, as although she wasn’t ticklish it actually relaxed her. My initial fetish was for stocking feet - not that my aunt knew - so this was a nice consensual indulgence for me. At one point she mentioned that she hoped her feet didn’t smell, and I assured her they didn’t. I inhaled her nylon soles, much to her amusement, and when she said she couldn’t believe I’d done that - with a smile on her face - I accidentally blurted out that I quite liked feet. My aunt said nothing, gave a knowing smile and let me carry on tickling her stocking feet. As far as I know she never told my parents, and allowed me to tickle her feet on many more occasions.

In later years, I had girlfriends who would indulge me my nylon feet and tickling fetishes after I’d confided it to them, as well as several female friends. I felt comfortable telling them and the reaction was always positive. One friend who indulged me even described my nylon foot worship as ‘orgasmic’ - so maybe I’ve added a convert to the cause! For those of us who struggle with the fetish, here’s some advice. One of my female friends - a very close friend who knows me inside out, understands appreciates fetishes and who has indulged me several times - summed it up perfectly. After I’d confided to her (she already knew from a mutual friend I’d told previously), she replied with ‘Everybody has a ‘thing’, and tickling just happens to be yours’. When she put it like that, it made so much sense and also made me appreciate my quirks even more.

Cheers, everybody,

More recently, mine is pretty simple. I started dating someone a couple months ago. I asked him if he liked giving massages, and I mentioned depending on where he touched me, I'm ticklish, but I liked it. He was instantly intrigued, and every time I saw him after that he tickled me. Even said he didn't realize how fun it was and he enjoyed my reactions. The pandemic has limited our fun lately, of course, but I imagine we'll have fun again. 🙂

One of my ex's was very accepting of my fetish, though she wasn't really ticklish. The relationship was otherwise terrible but every cloud has its silver lining. It was also an important (not sure I'd use the word "good") learning experience.

So I remember a few times in relationships tickling went over really well. I had this gf around 7 (?) Years ago. We connected on one of the usual dating sites. Tickling of course came up but I didn't really say a lot. We went to see one of the movies at the local theater and afterwards went to this Arby's that was conveniently empty (of customers). I guess I looked a little tired or something cuz I started looking at her arms during a moment and she was like "hey... you wanna get a tickle in? " so I started with her palms and worked my way up her arms and over the course of an hour or so things went progressively hysterical. We were in agreement to meet again and another time she came over and I was chill again and she was like "so.... come on over and do what you're good at" and we had another session. Sometimes there's just just dumb luck relationships where a partner takes what you enjoy regardless of how she feels and invites it in. The most she said about it was "hey, laughing's better than crying". That was good enough for me for then.
