This weekend - Birthday party - F/M

[Hockeyfeet]

OK, so this is so NOT funny....

Saturday was the big BDay party for my daughter. It was insane. We had over 60 people here, 30+ kids and enough food to feed an army.

With that many kids we rented two huge inflatable jumping houses. The kids loved them. One was a huge castle and big enough for about 12 kids.

So the kids played in it all day and it was supposed to be picked up at 3pm, but the rental company called ans asked if we could keep it until morning. They didn't have any other renters and didn't want to drive out to get it. Which was great for us, the kids played on for hours.

So after everyone was gone, I decided to relax and jump in the castle with my daughter. It was cute. I called my wife to join us and we had fun. Some other kids joined in and my mother in law was watching through the mesh window. At the same time all of the kids decided to go inside and play video games so me and the wife just layed in the castle and enjoyed 5 minutes of free time after 3 long days of prep. It was a much deserved time out.

We did a little cuddle and started playing around while my MIL laughed at us. My wife, who's about 5'3, 110lbs started thinking she was tough and jumped on top of me and we started wrestling. I was near dead tired and she had leverage on me...I guess you could say she was winning...but I was comfortable so i didn't care. Once you're nestled in a nook you cant move too good on those things, so I just layed there fighting her off. not too hard. Then I feel something on my feet...my legs jolted....and I felt it again.....it was my MIL....she had reached through the door and was tickling my feet!

First, you have to understand...me and my MIL totally bump heads, we never see eye to eye. We have had some rock'em sock'em battles. So this may have been a little revenge on her part. And what did my lovely wife do? She pinned me down and told her to "GET HIM!"

It was murder! My MIL REALLY knows how to tickle feet! She has wicked winger nails and uses justthe right touch....I was so pissed but I couldnt sto laughing. This was one of those times where i really didn't want to be tickled...but couldn't get her to stop. I started cursing (thank god the kids were inside) but to her credit...she kept it up...laughing the whole time at me.
Finally she let up and my wife got off of me. I was a puddle of goo as I laid there for another 20 minutes. later that night as we were in bed, I told my wife that little stunt wasn't funny. She pretended to care and said....just get her back...she's really ticklish on her feet!

So, here lies my dilema.....do I start a tickle war with this woman...who drives me ape sh*t.....or do I let her have the upper hand and let it go?

Being the stubborn Sicilian, I'm most likely going to get even...but we'll see. I'll keep you posted.

Sorry that happened...

My first instinct was no way you should take any action just let it go.

However, just to get the full picture, does your wife know how you personally feel about tickling?

I say go with what your wife told you and get her back by tickling her feet

I understand your pain.

I've been in that situation myself (well, not pinned in a kids jumping castle and tickled by my MIL, but...) where I was tickled by someone who I could not tickle back. Not that they weren't ticklish, just that I could not process the thought of tickling them.

In my case it was was roommates gf. We simply did not see eye to eye to put it mildly. One day there was a massive "studio wrestling" match going on in our room. (Picture a space about 8x8 with 10 people all wrestling like it was the WWF!) I had managed to get standing up and found this little red-headed friend of ours with a socked foot sticking up between someother people. I made eye contact and got a great big smile on my face as she pleaded and then I tickled the heck out of her foot!

Several minutes later (as these things happen) I was laying on my back when said re-head takes advantage and steps on my wrists to hold them over my head and the formerly mention gf starts tickling my armpits.

Two things to note:

1) At this point in my life I was very, VERY good at hiding my ticklishness.
2) My armpits are the only part of my body that I am not ticklish due to some freak of nature.

So naturally she had be spitting and laughing and promising to take back things I didn't steal until I was able to break free and cover up.

The re-head laughed and loved it (she paid later).

The gf went on to tickle her bf who just happens to be the single most ticklish person I have ever met!

I got her back once...just once.

She was climbing down from his loft and had a barefoot sticking over the edge and I just couldn't pass it up! One quick finger up the sole proved her own ticklishness, but alas I never had the oppertunity to take advantage of it.

So I can feel for you man...and I suggest you tickle her...at least a little...just to let her know you are capable of defending yourself! LOL!

You guys are right on point....
yes, my wife not only knows of my tickling fetish, but she openly encourages it, which is why she told me to get her feet. BUT...she also knows that me and her mom could go a few rounds in the ring someday. It has the potential to be really ugly!

My Psych 101 class tells me....the MIL was actually being playful and on some level was just having fun at my expense. Also, my wife may think that this playful act on both our part could ease tensions in the house. She's sort of sly like that. She could be right.

BUT...the stubborn side says....dont let her think she got the best of you. But then again, if I try to tickle her, she may think I'm warming up to her and I may back off my principles....which isnt' gonna happen. The BIG dilema....she has pretty awesome feet. ARGH!

So, time will tell. When the time is right....I'll decide and surely post my results. Something tells me this goofy fetish of mine will win.....

Tickle your MIL back on her bare feet, but be playful about it. 😀
Thanks for sharing your experience.

Oddly I would have said she found away to dominate you and make you suffer while no one else would think the better of it. She sort of "one-upped" you and doesn't think you would ever try to retaliate due to your relationship with her.

On the other hand (we Libras DO love to balance things) there is no harm in trying to warm up your realtionship with her...she will apparently be part of your life for quite awhile and anything that takes some tension out of life is worth it.

I should also add that the above mentioned girl that I could not stand in college is OK now. We have a decent friendship (due in large part to my wanting to remain friends with her husband) and I now secretly wish she would tickle me again...lol...she was pretty good at it and I think she would be pretty merciless!
