Suddenly not that ticklish?

[lessa]

So I was tied up and tickled for the first time ever. I was pretty excited for it. Hell, I was so nervous I was shaking. However, I hardly reacted to it. Here I was, tied down to the bed, being tickled by my boyfriend while I was helpless, and it did almost nothing. I barely laughed. Normally, I am excruciatingly ticklish. Whenever my boyfriend and I are wrestling around in a tickle fight and he gets me pinned down, I'm practically screaming.

I guess what I'm asking is if this happens to anyone else, because I figured being tied up would make me freak out even more instead of hardly laughing at all.

You mentioned you were nervous about it. Perhaps the underlying tension and the thought of being tied up made you less ticklish, due to your nervousness?

If that's the case, I'm not too sure what to advise, except make sure you are as comfortable as you can possibly be with whatever it is that you're doing.

It might also be that you were expecting it, and that it was a planned thing. Sometimes, a wrestling match, where other things are going on, and then a tickle attack happens, can bring the element of surprise to it. There are some people, who if just laying there, waiting for someone to "Tickle me", will be able to put up physical and emotional defenses, where the tickling wont be as agonizing. I've known plenty of girls, actually, who are extremely ticklish if caught off guard, but if they know the tickling is coming, will not be nearly as ticklish.

Just a theory.

I agree with all of the above. You did say it was your first time. Probably has a lot to do with it. Don't give up though! Like Artoo said - be comfortable with it. Mitchell's got a great point too. When you know it's coming and everything's been all planned out then without you even knowing it or being able to help it you might've put up defenses, etc.

Crap, thats such a shame, I'm sorry to hear that it wasn't as you had hoped.

I have to echo what the other three guys have said only to ask; was it a planned tickling with restraints this time you tried it?

I was just wondering perhaps as you've worked yourself up with excitement/apprehension about being restrained it took the edge off a bit. Maybe next time don't plan anything, if it was planned this time and just have your tickle fun and then during it suggest that you want to be restrained and see how that goes. 🙂

Get drunk, then let him tickle you ; it worked for me🙄

might sound abit perverted but you say this was with your boyfriend right? How about get him to tie you up again but this time get sexual, if he gets you sexualy fired up and horney you may find all nerves go out the window and as you'l be turned on to high degree you will feel 100% comfortable. Then start the tickling by suprise when your all hot for it. I only say this cause any session i've had in past thats worked out well have been the ones where i've been horny in a sexual state of mind, if i'm just calm or whatever i tend to loose alot of sensitivity

the sexual response is good. i also think it might help if, once you're all tied up, he leaves. not necessarily the house, but the room, to build up anticipation.
