How do you get your friend to stop. Making fun of you and take you seriously? She points out my flaws a lot and laughs. I can’t do the same because it doesn’t feels wrong and she says it “playing around” but it seems like she means it. I. Told her to stop that I don’t like it but she doesn’t take me seriously. And she told me its okay to make fun of me because she lets me make fun of her which is a complete liee because I don’t make fun of her. I told her that and she just starts laughing and changes the conversation and its getting annoying of her making fun of me not to mention I have low self esteem and I’m very insecure. Help advice please I. Guess you can cal it bullying?

You have to be assertive with assholes. You can't just say "Stop that hurts my feelings" You have to look them in the eye with a fierce look and say " I have had enough! I will not be subjected to criminal abuse!"These types of people do not take a person's feelings seriously because they are too weak to feel empathy. When they hurt someone's feelings it easier for them to stay the course and pretend they did nothing wrong rather than feel ashamed.

It happened a lot with me too. For me, if I had enough, I'd just say "hey, that's hurt." And just that and usually my friend stopped. I don't think you'll find this helpful but yeah..

Thank you for replying I appreciate it but I did try that and I gues she saw I wasn't kidding and she stopped but then she started again so yeah...

ATWA is right. Be assertive, make your opinion on the matter clear, and if she doesn't consent, then she is not your friend
