Since I was a small child I just love being tickled . My sister and I would exchange trickles at bedtime. I also would wake in the night with one arm straight up and the opposite hand lightly tickling it … Then both hands end up caressing my face as well. Years later it is still happening… I love the feeling but it can interrupt my sleep patterns .(Apparently my young niece does it while she sleeps as well.) Trouble is that I can’t get my fix. My husband gets tired after a few minutes. It is hard work because the touch had to be light and feathery. But oh getting these light touch feather fingertip dances on my arms, legs hands and sometimes face… Oh feet as well, make so happy and relaxed. its not a sexual experience but maybe sensual would better describe it. Anyone else experience this joy/longing for soft touch trickles? Weird…? Hope not.

For some people, that’s exactly what it is.

How can you tell if a girl likes being tickled?

Try using two test tickles.

Hey, you can take all of my tickles. Free of charge. I have the curse of being horrifically ticklish, naturally this means everybody **must** tickle me – as if they were bound by some cosmic geas.

You, my friend, may take all my tickles if you please. In fact, no, it’s not an offer, I beg of you to take my tickles.

[According to a poll I took awhile back](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=539318&highlight=tickled), you are in an extreme minority (with me-seems like my nieces got the gene tho as they love it when I tickle them). This surprised me greatly, BTW.

This is one of the most obvious fap material posts I’ve seen in ages. Reported.

The last person who tried to tickle me got kicked in the test tickles.

Tickle at your own risk!

I have no idea why tickling feels good or bad as I have always been completely non-ticklish. It just feels like it looks, someone is lightly rubbing their fingers on me. I can barely feel anything when someone tickles my feet.

My boyfriend has managed to find one of the most ticklish areas of my body - it’s on my sides between my waist and my hips. He sneaks in from behind and gets me every time. I let out this strange little grunt when he does it. I enjoy the laughs we both get from it. Fortunately, he has yet to figure out another area where I’m extremely ticklish.

Um, are you misspelling tickles on purpose? Drop the R.
