I have a great sense of humor and appreciate a man that I date to have one too! However, there are some guys out there who haven't a clue what humor is all about, and what is worse is when they try to be funny, and are not!...most of them will make comments jokingly about me in some way that they think is funny, when I feel it is down right insulting. Then they say, " I was only joking!"
I guess not everyone is blessed with the God given talent of a sense of humor but guys if your not,........don't try to be funny..it usually does not work, in fact you end up with the opposite reaction....a smile turned upside down!!
I have friends that are married and some of their husband think they are down right funny insulting their wifes in front of others. I would never settle for this, in fact, I have turfed a few dates who were so irritating, in thinking they were being funny, but were actually digging themselves into that "Black Hole!"...never to be seen again!!
I am sure many of you have experienced this as well. Please do tell!

I know of plenty of women that like to be teased & made fun of in innocent ways.

There is line though where ribbing someone turns into an insult.

Also, I would only see it being a good idea when you are alone together.

I have heard women state that they like to give it & hope that their man can give it back.

It is usually obvious as to what can be hurtful & those things should be off limits.

I am not sure what you are referring too in the above statement, outlined in red, but otherwise I agree 100% with you.

If you are dating someone with a 3rd nipple then don't make fun of the 3rd nipple. That would be hurtful.

Oh! gotcha!...I think! yes that would not be nice! Do they actually exist? Or is it just a birth mark of sorts?

Listen....I am no way photogenic, take the worst pics on the planet, and hate all pics of me....but if the pic you have displayed on the EHA boards is the one on your profile, I can see why men are over-the-top humorous with you!

BTW: The other pic you had posted was much better...this one makes you look like you are trying to hypnotize a man! I can see your humor in this pic, but some men may take it to mean they can 'goof off' with you all the time.

Sorry all....just saying what I think, as usual...let the stoning begin....I deserve it! this time!....*sigh*

(now where did I put my meds...ack!!!!!!!!)..LOL

Not at all, I appreciate your opinion! That pic was my attempt to look like a Geisha girl for a Japanese dinner I went too! I think it is quite good! (haha!) shows my eyes and my beautiful completion!!
I will change it eventually! For now, I think it's fun!
And you look just fine in your pic, but it is a little dark, you should brighten it up a bit, I bet your smile would do it!! And you are photogenic, I have yet to meet anyone who is not!
