Would you confess?

[iheartsneezn]

I know that most of us shrink from the Idea of just openly telling those around us about the fetish. BUT, suppose someone approached you and for whatever crazy reason asked you specifically if you got aroused from other people sneezing. Would you tell them yes? I have to say personally that if this scenario was like this I would say yes.

[sneezefetish]

It would depend on the person. Family, no.

[Prongs]

I agree, it depends on the person. I might say yes if I knew the person wouldn't go blabbing about it, and wasn't family.

[Jorm]

Not if it was a random stranger who walked up to me out of nowhere and asked if I had a sneezing fetish But if it was a friend or interestingly compared to everyone else so far, an immediate family member, yeah I would.

[Kiwifruit]

Totally depends I'd probably try to work out why they were asking first, and of course, like everyone else, it depends on the person ;P If it was someone I trusted completely then maybe...I kind of like my boyfriend being pretty much the only one who knows though, it's like it's something special that I only share with him

Total stranger for sure no though

[SusieQusie]

I would be so paranoid just being asked this. Why would they ask me? What makes them come to such a conclusion? Have they been stalking me?

Having said that, I am a terrible liar. So I might try to lie and hope they couldn't read my guilty face.

[MyOwnPrivateSFC]

Been there, done that, lied and said no. One of the least-proud moments of my life, and yet I'm still 100% sure I made the right decision. Considering the way that one worked out...I'd have to say unless it was someone who I KNEW wouldn't be freaked out, or a stranger who didn't know my name, I would lie again, even if blatently lying about the fetish hurts.

[Chanel_no5]

Depends on the person, as some others have said... and also depends on if I'm able to laugh it off and lie, because some days I cannot lie for the life of me.

[Sneesee]

I guess as long as I was friends with that person, and it wasn't family (parents, sister, aunts, etc.), I would probably confess. Of course I would want to know how they came to that conclusion, because as far as I can see, this fetish is really not obvious to anyone outside of it. I mean, even when I have told people about it, most of them had no clue. So yeah, I'd be curious if they were stalking me, or poking through my computer or something.

Interesting ... Did you ever find out what made that person ask?

As for me, I probably would beat around the bush, saying something like, "well, it's not a turn off." I might say yes if I'm close with the person, but I don't think I would ever go into too much detail.

[polychrome]

First I'd probably ask why they want to know....but I don't think I'd have to lie about it.

He read part of a story I was writing for a friend, and part of an IM conversation I was having with a Forum member, after I explicitly told him that he needed to ASK before he used my laptop, not just grab it, even though he knew my password. Part of my lying was based on the fact that I knew he couldn't handle the truth, but part of it was based on the fact that if I couldn't trust him with my closed laptop, I for damned sure wasn't going to trust him with a secret this big.

[NoV]

I would have to say that I would lie If it was a family member, and I thought I could get away with bluffing my way out of it, I would do that too. I think it would only be in a situation where it would be utterly impossible to refute that I had the fetish, that I would ever admit it to family or a stranger.

[VoOs]

I'd probably tell the truth, but in such a way that it would be hard for them to tell whether I was joking or not. Depending who was asking, and why, of course.

[BelieveInRollins]

friends or a stranger that i was talking to that ill probably never see again, yes. family, a definate no O_O

Hmmm, Gotcha. I think I would have lied too in this situation, especially given his history of distrust.

Such a shame that people can feel so entitled to reading a conversation and story that is clearly none of their business!

[Nicole]

Oh, I would absolutely say no, and I wouldn't bat an eyelash. But you know...I don't see it as lying, really. I see it as keeping something that's VERY personal, private, and intimate to me...well, keeping it personal, private, and intimate. I don't owe anybody anything if they ask me a question like that.

[chalkdust]

If someone came right out and asked me, yes I would tell them. I can't outright lie if I am asked a specific question. Just feels too wrong to do so.

[Dye]

This has happened to me, actually. I denied it. Because I didn't really know them. Not entirely sure how they found out, but... I'm pretty sure that everyone knows, now.

;^;

Ah well, no harm done, really. People leave me alone about it now. (Except my best friend, who is amazing and betas my drabbles and fics and improves them before I post them.)

[Stimuli]

actually I just told one of my nearest friends about it, she took it very good (by saying: "awh that's so cute and random") hehe

[zneeze]

I also say it depends on who's asking If I trust the person, and I find out why he/she is asking (like maybe they found out somehow...) then I would entertain the idea of telling them the truth, yes.

Great spin on the question, though! Thanks for asking!

[Villette]

I'd probably say in an obviously sarcastic way, "Uhmm, YEAH. Sneezing is haaawwt. Duuhhh"

I've found that the best way to lie (usually) is by telling the truth.

[lalaland~]

Having lied to someone who's asked, I can confidently say that no, I would not tell them!

I like to enjoy it in secret and I really hate the forced sneezes and forced attempts and such just to try to please me (I have told boyfriends in the past, but regretted it).

[Guest Miss Bliss]

It was an unfortunate coincidence for me that a guy I was dating for years (who I had never told about my fetish) was home sick with a very sneezy cold, and while reading the newspaper found a letter to "Dear Abby" written by someone with a sneeze fetish. Then I come home and have a very hard time hiding how turned on I am. He thought about that letter and it occurred to him that maybe I was a little too attentive...and so he asked me straight out if I have a fetish like he read about. I lied. I explained to him that he was just so cute that I couldn't keep my hands off of him, even when he was sick and repulsive. In truth it was the complete opposite. But the whole thing is actually funny to me now because I found out later that he had a fetish of his own and I think he just wanted me to share first! But I chickened out.

[nolongeractive]

I told someone a long, long time ago that I "liked sneezing" when asked what my biggest secret was. I think I was 7 or 8 years old then, and none of us really understood why it was a big secret - I just knew it embarrassed me. But now, I doubt I would tell anyone about it, not even if I was prompted. Besides her, I've only told three people - and I waited until it could be over Skype or text because I couldn't bring myself to say it to their face. xD
