[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t think it was that bad but I’m not her. It doesn’t matter what the rest of us think. Does she normally have a sense of humor? It sounds like your sense of humor doesn’t match with hers - that’s the issue. [/quote]

Agree, your humor does not match. I would have come back at you with another quip and enjoy light hearted back and forth. Now you know that she does not. So you will act accordingly.  I am curious as to where you each are from. With my northeast friends we can banter back  and forth, light heartedly. It has been my experience generally that people from other regions don’t appreciate sarcasm and that type of banter so it doesn’t happen with them.[/quote]

That’s the thing though, she usually gives it back to me. [/quote]

H and I tease each other all the time. Sometimes we accidentally hit a nerve and the other person gets upset. We apologize and don’t do it again. I know the things that are too much for H, he knows what is too much for me, and we don’t go there.

If one of us insisted “it was just a joke! We joke all the time! You’re petty and sensitive!” our marriage would not last very long. Part of joking around is knowing when you went too far and making things right when you do. [/quote]
