I was raised in a family that DID (and does) tease. I was all fine with it until some point somewhere in my past where I somehow acquired the conviction that all teasing has at its heart a kernel of truth. I.E., if someone teases one about being late to an event, that someone on some level has noted and is bothered by the tardiness.
I still don't know from where I got this idea, though I wish I did, and could erase it from all memory. As a result, there IS no such thing as "innocent" teasing for me, and because I did it for so long, I still do it automatically and then hate myself for it later.
