teasing


i like being teased.
i like teasing people.
as long as you're not hurting people.
even though there is truth in every joke.

in a theoretical debate, i was told such teasing [particularly mean-edging comments] have no place in a dating relationship. i have never met someone like that before. where do you fall?

please don't tease me with half answers, but give me the straight dope.

Everyone ought to have something that can receive teasing about. And everyone has something about which they cannot be teased about. All you have to do is know the difference.

um.... can you be less kriptic about the conversation? cos i don't know what you're on about.

as it stands, i'd probably say 'it all depends.'

everyone takes the piss out of me. i'm *mostly* ok with it ;-) you're pretty good at taking it too.

i am going to delete your comment, UB, because that puts too much responsibility on me.

koo: i had a pretty terse, mean back and forth with a girl i'd never met at a big birthday party. it was mutual. we both enjoyed it. some might call it fun. everyone was laughing.

afterwards, a kiwi told me she's glad we weren't dating because there is NEVER a place for lovers to tease each other like that. i disagreed--so long as it's mutually ok, i see no problem.
