My t does not allow teasing. My family used to tease me a lot and responding in kind became a habit for me. A reflex. Don Rickles could take lessons from me. But there is often fear or hostility or other unexpressed emotions behind it. So t doesnt play along, he has the presence of mind to ask me whats going on, what do i mean, what am i saying or thinking. No fun. I really noticed it when i saw my brother again recently, that i could act differently.
