Tickling Roommates...

[Sunriseticklee]

You know... I was just thinking...

I'm going to be looking for a new place to crash in the next month or so. I won't ever buy a house in Georgia because I'm moving out of this state as soon as I get my Master's degree. I guess it will be either a rental house (which I prefer) or an appartment.

But several times I have thought about moving into a roommate situation. Now I've done it before. Had some good ones and sucky ones. (Like the girl who tried to wear my bras and put her dirty underware on my bed. Can you say "whoop-ass"?

But what I really really really want is a male roommate. I get along so much better with guys and we have so much more fun.

I've always fantasized about moving in with a cool guy. And somehow he finds out that I LOVE being tickled... or not even that... Just that I am crazy ticklish and every once in awhile we end the day in this awesome tickle fight.

Do you know how much stress that would relieve after a long day of work?

What do you think? Besides those of you who are married and have a live in tickle mate who loves you dearly (some of you are soooo blessed 😛). Do you think it would be cool to have a roommate you could hang with... talk to about everything... cuddle with... tickle every once in awhile.... Without the complications of a "hot and heavy" relationship? Just fun and friendship?

I think that would be great. We all know that it will never happen... But I fantasize about it sometimes. The ultimate tickle FRIEND.

Yes, Sunrise, I agree. That sounds great! A tickle friend to hang out with and tickle with, without all the complications. But how realistic is it? Anything can happen, I suppose, although it's unlikely.

 

[ViperGTS]

Shoot, it is 100% realistic! COme room with me, sunrise!!!

That would be so great. She comes home and gets tackled, tickled out of her mind, then hugged, and hung out with....oh man I wish...haha. I seriously think it is totaly possible.

 

[Iggy pop]

It's a great fantasy. The fantasy being having a relationship with no strings attached. I have had several female roommates in my life, and it has almost always become messy. One time I became homless moving from friends couch to friends couch. Now, I will not live with a female unless I have plans on marrying her. I may stay over a couple of nights, but I will always keep a seperate place.

 

[starfires]

I have a female roommate that I have tickle fights with once in a while (along with sneaking up and tickling or otherwise startling each other). We are both into tickling to varying degrees. It's a very relaxed, comfortable platonic relationship, though not as intense as I think you're imagining, Sunrise.

Iggy pop, it is quite possible to have a relationship with no strings attached, roommate or otherwise (depending on what you call a relationship, I suppose) but it does require a certain level of resilience and mutual understanding.

 

[Haltickling]

I'm afraid Iggy's quite right. When a man and a woman (both heterosexual) live together, there's something more than just platonic friendship involved. Especially when you get physical (face it: tickling is pretty physical!). Exceptions like starfire's relationship go well because both are heavily into tickling.

It could work with a real ticklefan, and it could work with a homosexual man. Otherwise, most men will want to get sexual when living together with an attractive woman. To tell them they shall tickle you but forget about sex is a bit like "wash me but don't make me wet". It's cruel on the man.

But if having sex with them occasionally is alright with you as long as they don't burden you with heavy emotions, it could work for a limited time span.

That's what I've learnt in my long life...

It usually works better in a fantasy, but . . .

Sunrise Ticklee, it's refreshing to see it isn't just men who would like a no-strings-attached relationship. I might change the living-together aspect of it (as attractive as saving money is) to either next-door neighbors or coworkers.

Your fantasy reminded me of a comment by a middle-aged woman who had an eye for younger men: "The difference between older women who chase younger men and older men who chase younger women is the women don't get stupid, marry them, and eventually lose half their assets to them."

 

[BigBrownEyes]

I'd have no problem with the no-strings-attached, tickle friends/roomate situation. It sounds very cozy. What better way to unwind from a stressy day? But I don't live anywhere near GA. That's what I mean about the situation being unlikely. Although there's people in the tickle community that you probably would actually click with in the real world, you're almost never easily assesible to each other. That's just the way it is...

I also think that if two people had this type of relationship, they would inevitably become attached to each other. Although we're talking no-strings, the closeness of it all would give a reasonably intelligent person butterflies. That's just an observation, maybe I'm wrong. But I'd love to try it.

P.S.

Sunrise, I just posted a true story on the subject of casual tickling:

[tklr5150]

That is the dream....a relaxed relationship with a woman who loves to tickle and be tickled and correct your grammar relentlessly 😛

Say, I'm moving into a new place pretty soon and I might be looking for a roommate Sunrise...how do you feel about life in the Windy City 😀

 

[stan327]

Hi Sunrise

So how long until you get your degree and move on?? To where do you plan to move?? I would be overjoyed to have a female roommate who wouldn't mind being tickled on a regular basis. Unfortunately I have only a one bedrrom apartment in central Ohio. There are plenty of vacant places just one or two doors down from me however. We wouldn;t be roommates but a tickle attack would always be just footsteps away!! 😉

 

[Iggy pop]

I still say this is a bad idea. It sounds great having a "no strings attached" relationship. The problem is people do get attached. These realtionships can work for the short term, but as soon as one party actually gets into another relationship jelousy arises and feeling get hurt. It become a very uncomfortable situation quickly, and not a place where you want to live. I think men and women can live as platonic roommates, but just as long as treat a roommate of the opposite sex the same as a roommate of the same sex. So if you wouldn't do it with a male roommate then don't do it with a female roommate. I have tickling story that I will tell when I have more time which illustrates my point.

 

[Tickle-Underarm]

I agree with iggy pop, but let's just have this fantastic dream of having a girl roommate who likes to be tickles. I haven't been able to find a girl who is into tickling as much as I am, and likes to be tickled. This is just a dream for me! So, how do you think of living in Maryland 😀 ?

 

[phatteus]

I'm with you, Sunrise

I am totally with you on this..

I would love to be your fantasy roommate, and tickle the hell out of you when you walked in the apaarrtmeennt, or when you were walking out of the appaarrtmeeenttt, or when you were waking up, or getting out of the shower... well, maybe that's taking it too far, but a heterosexual tickle roommate sounds ideal to me. I do, however, think that you should do some severe tickling as well! Besides, I love to be tickled as much as anyone!!

 

[starfires]

I'm afraid Iggy's quite right. When a man and a woman (both heterosexual) live together, there's something more than just platonic friendship involved. Especially when you get physical (face it: tickling is pretty physical!). Exceptions like starfire's relationship go well because both are heavily into tickling.

Actually, my roommate is much less into tickling than I am, as far as I can tell (as in, tickling is just a random fun thing, not a major passion), and we don't hold heavy hours-long tickling sessions or anything like that.

It could work with a real ticklefan, and it could work with a homosexual man. Otherwise, most men will want to get sexual when living together with an attractive woman. To tell them they shall tickle you but forget about sex is a bit like "wash me but don't make me wet". It's cruel on the man.

Speak for yourself please. There are quite a few people that I want to get sexual with but don't, for one reason or another. What's different about a roommate? I would find such a situation quite comfortable, and I definitely would prefer tickling and no sex to no tickling and no sex.

But if having sex with them occasionally is alright with you as long as they don't burden you with heavy emotions, it could work for a limited time span.

Actually I'm pretty sure you would only raise the probability of finding "strings" or other drama with your roommate if you have sex with him, or even suggest that sex is a possibility. I don't recommend this unless both you and your roommate are very, very good at relationship management.

That's what I've learnt in my long life...
🙄

Then I think you haven't lived long enough (sez I, from my ripe old age of 24). Are you stating the dominant paradigm or trying to enforce it?

 

[BigBrownEyes]

I have to agree with Iggy on this one. If two members of the opposite sex started a plutonic/no-strings relatioships such as this, jealousy would almost definitely rear its ugly head when others came into the picture. At least one of the two people would get very bent-out-of shape by the others outside realtionships. It's human nature, like it or not.

That reminds me of a story from a long time ago. About ten years ago, one of my best friends was a very pretty lady. We got very close without ever dating, or fooling around whatsoever. I was proud of us! Then one night, she slapped the moves on me and we plunged into a personal relationship. She considered herself open-minded and told me that she wanted to date others. We were both rather young, around 19 or 20, so I said go ahead! So she starts going on dates with other guys and waving it right under my nose. I sucked it up, took it like a man, and started dating other women. Ok, when she found out, she went through the roof! It was one of the most irrational things I've ever seen.

Well, our personal relationship lingered on and off for over a year, but didn't last and eventually killed the friendship. I really miss her.

 

[Knox The Hatter]

Aspire to this anyway, Sunrise. Iggy may very well be right; he has very intelligent and helpful insights...and there are pratfalls to be avoided, of course. But I think the best thing you can do is give it a shot. Experience your own unique experience...after you move on to the next chapter in your life, for good or ill, you can say that it was worth trying.

 

[TickledToDeath]

Many moons ago...

....long before I met shygirl.....seems as if in another life now... I had just such a relationship with a girl while I was in the Navy stationed in San Diego.
{ON a side note, my heartfelt feelings to all who are out there dealing with that massave fire and the effects of it}
It was great while it lasted but shit happens and that relationship ended and I have not seen her or heard of her since.
Now I have the best of all worlds with shygirl forevermore.
A once fantasy now reality.
🙂 😀

Sunrise.......I hope that actually happens for you not only do you deserve it but it is not all that much of a fantasy since it is actually a reachable goal if you are persistant and honest as well as if you are YOU!
You never know........

God, that proposal sounds fantastic! i for one would love to have a tickle buddy, a platonic relationship based on intellectual communion and physical activity, without the attachments of a heavy relationship would be excellent. however, if this were to occur, it would undermine much of my theory about inter-personal relationships. trust me, most of us are not evolved enough to undertake this. i dont know if i would be strong enough to stop falling in chemical imbalance with someone...🙄

 

[drew70]

During my single years, I had numerous female friends who tickled me on a regular basis, with no strings attached. I would have loved to have sex with many of them, but never did. Mostly, this is because I was afraid that if I pushed for sex, it would destroy the tickling relationship. Given the choice between sex and tickling, I'll take tickling any time.
