Not too long ago, I would've said no I wouldn't get rid of it. I reasoned, I've always been a dateless wonder with the fetish, no reason to assume I wouldn't be a dateless wonder without it. Lately, I wonder if there may have been some kind of connection. I've sometimes wondered if females could sense that I had no interest in anything other than tickling? But that can't be, because I've had females show interest in me. If there was any connection, it certainly wasn't the only thing that's kept me alone.
Very low confidence and self-esteem, so unconsciously I believe any female who would show interest in such a deeply defective human being as me will eventually figure out what a loser I am so why bother pursuing it?
Bipolar 2 which is basically just depression because you don't go up and down like Bipolar 1, you're depressed like 99% of the time.
A definitely passive nature and lack of ambition, so I was always willing to settle for fantasies and masturbation.
So I guess the fetish just didn't help, that's all. I guess I'd still keep it.
