Acceptance

Growing up, I found being tickled fun as long as I’m comfortable with the person. I’m not super ticklish everywhere, which is probably why too. It felt tolerable and sometimes like a challenge to not laugh or to not react but to feel it still. But the older I got, the more I felt it was too weird, shameful even. I opened up to one person recently, super vulnerably, and he accepted though he didn’t really understand. Then I found this. Maybe I’ll meet others who understand from being there. Maybe we think the same and maybe we don’t and that’s okay. Because we all have our preferences and boundaries and what not, but we all have some sort of interest or something in this.
