Are you ticklish?

Some people are very ticklish and some people aren't ticklish at all. Some people can turn it on and off like a switch if they are expecting someone to tickle them. I have heard people say they are so ticklish that they can't stand for anyone to touch their feet or their knees. Some people get mad if you tickle them. Are you tiklish?

YES, I am crazy ticklish! I especially hate it when people poke my sides, I flinch and squeal every time. I get mad when i'm tickled only if they have crossed my patience line, when they have pushed it too far. I guess i'm ticklish everywhere- my feet, neck, hand, etc.!

Hi Jen! If you tickle me in my stomach, feet or neck I'll keep laughing and laughing!!!. You can say that I am a ticklish and easily get provoked for laughing if someone tickles me.

I'm horribly ticklish! I can't turn it off, not even a tiny bit! I don't mind an occasional tickle, but if the tickler won't stop, I get angry. My feet, now, if anyone tries to tickle my feet, they're putting their lives on the line! They tickle so much it hurts. My sister, back in our younger days, used to try to sit on me occasionally and tickle my feet. She always found out the hard way that I gain super-strength when my feet are tickled and I start kicking! I don't care where I kick, either. It's a risk you take when trying to tickle my feet. I ALWAYS manage to kick anyone who ever tries it and I'm not particular about how much it hurts them or where on their body they get kicked! Members of the male species should NEVER try to tickle my feet because they may just become gelded in the process! Broken noses, broken ribs, a fat lip with maybe a tooth or two missing, they're just some of the possibilities that might arise if anyone tries to tickle my feet.

LOL..so your dangerously ticklish huh? I bet there have been a few people that have learned the hard way about that. I will get mad to if they just keep on and keep on. It kinda hurts after a while.

LOL Yep, a few have learned. No one has tried it in decades, though. Maybe word has gotten around that my feet are not to be tickled, ever! Thanks for the BR. It cheered me up. I'm recovering from what I think was that swine flu and spent a week away from myLot. Yep, it really was bad. I didn't see the doctor because, well, it was just the flu, although it did wipe me out for over a week. I just had no energy. I have a little back now and am trying to move around some and participate here more, but it is still hard. Your BR just brightened up my day! Thank you!!

Your welcome my friend. I was wondering where you had been. I had a bout with something myself but it wasn't anywhere near flu like. I figure it won't be long though since the girls have went back to school. Hope you get to feeling better!

Hello Jen! Lol.. its a very funny topic actually.I am not tickling generally but there are times when someone can tickle me from a distance as well,as is the case with babies most of the times! I do like to tickle people who are ticklish,especially babies.They laugh and act in such a funny way on being tickled

Seems like I heard a superstition that if you tickled them before they were a year old that they would be crosseyed. Have you ever heard that one or was it something else. Maybe we can just tickle them a little.

Certain parts of me are and Hubby knows it. Most of the time he doesn't tickle me but every once in a while he will. When I was young, my oldest brother would sit on me and tickle me till I peed. It was horrible. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

I am very ticklish. I giggle like crazy when someone pokes me in the sides, the stomach, the foot, the neck, and the back. I can't help myself but look like this and my family and friends sure take advantage of that.

Hey Jen! Yes I am ticklish! I don't like to be tickled either! I also don't like anyone to touch my feet! Not even my foot doctor, since I really don't like him! My bf likes to torture me once in awhile by tickling me because he knows I hate it and I think that when someone knows that you hate it they will do it even more!

Yes I am a little ticklish, but do not get mad if I am tickled. Yes there are people who cannot stand even a slight touch particularly in some spots and yell. At the same time there are some who remain unmoved.

Yes. I'm so ticklish. But sometimes I can control it sometime I can't. My most ticklish part is my waist and neck. Some of my friends always tease me by tickling me because they know that I can't stop laughing once I've been tickled. Sometimes I love the feeling of being tickled that's why I let them tickle me but I'll try to run and evade a little bit to have more fun.

I personally am extremely ticklish. I don't care where you touch me it drives me absolutely crazy. My boyfriend on the other hand is like those switches, he can turn it on and off. He does have a spot on the inside of his thigh however that he does have a difficult time turning off and then another spot that is only ticklish at certain times. I never understood how some could turn it on and off though.

Yup, I can be. There are times that I just can't stand it and would wriggle like a mad person, LOL. I cannot take the sensation and would either run away or laugh when being tickled consistently. There are some people getting all gibberish when they are tickled and I've seen it a lot of times..

I am ticklish, and very much so on my feet. I do get upset if am tickled too much on my feet, but if only for a minute I don't get upset. I can't turn on and off my ticklishness though I can brace myself and not react to the tickling for a moment if I am ofcourse, forewarned in anyway! lol!

It helps when you know someone who loves to tickle, and constantly (and for awhile) does it (tickling that is). I had an aunt who would tickle, though it hurt so no composure was needed!

Being forewarned is the key..No way I could turn it off if I weren't expecting it. I'd have to have a chance to gain my composure..lol..Thanks for the response.

A little tickle here and there is a way to let someone know you are aware of their existence and appreciate them. Going overboard is truly just being an annoyance.
