Disclaimer: I’m copy pasting this from non-tickle centric reddits so if some things come off as redundant to us tickle folk… that’s why, haha.

Hello all! As the title says I'm an Ace Dom with a predominant tickling kink looking for a play partner! I get into some details below (and don't worry, as you can see there is also a tl;dr section) but thank you regardless for the attention and your time in reading this over. I'm located in Columbus, Ohio and can travel a bit or figure something out as far as meeting someone who isn't -too- terribly far but... well we'll get into it down below. Thanks again!

So what would this entail? (An overview/tl;dr)

I am looking for a tickle buddy and partner with the possibility (not necessity) to grow into exclusivity… so I suppose the general idea is like a Friend with Tickle Benefits. However, I want to point very specifically to the friend part of that phrase! I want to get to know you, to feel comfortable with you, to trust you, and to be myself with you. Any kind of Dom/Sub relationship is built on a heavy foundation of trust and understanding so this shouldn’t be anything new, but I want to spell it out anyway. Besides… why would I want to play with you if I don’t even like you? Haha.

We can hang out, I’ll cook for us, we’ll play games, and if kink happens it happens! I like taking things slow. Now, this Tl;Dr is getting long so…

Your pleasure is my pleasure

• This is indeed the section where I talk about my being Asexual. My outlook on sexuality is somewhere between sex-neutral and sex-positive. What does this mean? Well, to put it simply: ** Your pleasure is my pleasure.**

• I want to make you happy. How I will try to achieve that is through my tickling. Here is an example of some of my tickle tools which I will use for said tickling. However, I am definitely not limited to just tickling. If you have other kinks or things you’d like to try, then I’d be happy to explore with you! This would all be explored too in negotiations that we do together before any scene. I do live negotiations and make a point to do them with intention before any and all play. I want to please you, I want to work with you to make it perfect for you because that will make it perfect for me.

• Some examples of negotiation questions we will dive into to make sure we have the best scene possible are: What mindset do you hope to achieve from our scene? How do you want to feel when you’re in our scene mentally and physically? What are some triggers I should be aware of and how can I help if one comes up that was beyond our control? What is something you enjoy that may not normally come up on a scene but you would like incorporated? And much more!

A bit about my vanilla side:

• To add a bit about myself, because I do want to be your friend. I honestly don’t think I could be in any kind of a relationship with someone I’m not friends with after all!

• I love hiking and taking walks… though I’ll be honest, I need to explore more places around me.

• I love art, both looking at and making. Museums are always a fun time and lately I’ve been getting into crochet! I also do photography, drawing, some painting, and play a few instruments.

• I collect vinyls and love milling around new record stores, or taking to regulars at old ones. I would say I have over 100 vinyls easily at this point and remember (more or less) where I got all of them.

• I also collect comic books and can talk about them for a long time, from various publishers. So much I’m planning on doing a comic book podcast! Original, I know.

• I like cooking and baking. I’m a fan of making recipes for others and hoping that they enjoy it. I do get a bit more intensive in the kitchen though… I like breaking down the recipe and really trying to understand flavor profiles/how it all works. But! Perhaps I can get used to cooking with others.

• I also play video games and board games! I am trying to get together a board game night… one day it’ll be a consistent thing but we shall see. Video game wise I’m a console gamer and use my Switch and Playstation. I have Steam but… I also have a Mac so… yeah.

• I also love hearing about other people’s passions so I’d love to hear your hobbies and what you love!

A look into what our first session could be:

Now, getting back into kink. I enjoy taking things slow. Very slow. I’ll get into things before our first session in the next section but that’s for later. When we first meet I’d love to get a meal or coffee and then see if we’d like to go somewhere for tickling/hanging out. If not, cool! We can take it slow. If we do go to tickle times however we will go at your speed. Want to chill and talk more wherever we go? Cool! Watch a movie or play games? Lovely. And when we do get to tickling we can start slow, gentle, any level of bondage (or none at all), et cetera. Maybe we’ll start full on with stocks. Maybe we’ll just start with your feet in my lap as I gently tickle them, or sitting in my lap as I tease your sides and underarms. We’ll go with the flow!

Aftercare/safety:

• Aftercare is -huge- for me. We will have multiple discussions about aftercare before we meet in person at all. I want to know what you need to feel safe, cared for, and comforted after our session and will honor all your needs. I’ll tell you mine as well and we will go from there.

• I also am big into always having a safe word. I refuse to do a session without a safe word. I also have habit of having a safe motion (for example, two fingers in the air per hand) or a safety toy (for example: a squeaky toy in your hand) that you can use if you can’t think to use the word but can get the urgency to use them. You will always be able to use the safe word and it will always be honored. I want you to feel comfortable and safe, and that is a big step in that.

• One of the biggest topics in our negotiations will be aftercare. I’ll express openly and clearly aftercare I need, and want to know and fully understand what you need. And also express/emphasize that aftercare doesn’t stop the day of a scene! I’ll keep checking in on you, making sure you’re okay, and always let you know you can come to me if drop randomly hits you. If we’re far enough where we’re play partners, you have my full and complete support.

Covid worries and safety in general:

So I am double vaccinated and up to date on my boosters. This is also the section I edit the most because things change -so much-. Even before Covid I insisted we do a video chat, get comfy with each other, and then of course meet in public before anything happens. Non-negotiable. This is for your safety of course but also mine! Safety is big for me and doubly so with Covid. I’m willing to remain masked the entire time, for everything, and willing to postpone things however long as well to help you be comfortable. I understand completely and will work with you however I can.

Finale

Thanks so much for reading everything! Or at least, you know, the tl;dr, haha. If this all sounds interesting to you and like you’d want to chat feel free to reach out! I would absolutely love to get to know you and see what happens! Take care everyone!

P.S. not close? No problem! New friends are always welcome too, feel free to chat to make a new friend as well. :)
