What's the difference between bullying and teasing?

Teasing is light-hearted, playful joking around between friends and family mutually. It is done with a sense of fun and to create laughter and amusement between the people involved. Bullying, on the other hand, is not done playfully or jokingly, but rather hurtfully and negatively. In my opinion, there can be a fine line between the two. Teasing can become bullying if it hurts a person or is done with the intention to hurt the other.

Sometimes there isn't always a difference. What is "teasing" to one person may feel like bullying to another. If you don't see them laughing with you and if they're averting their gaze to not make eye contact, that's a good sign that they feel uncomfortable. No joke should go far enough to make a person feel worse than when the joke started. That's not funny, that's abuse.

I hate the way adults use "teasing" as a euphemism for "bullying." Teasing is friendly and fun, done between friends; it's supposed to be fun for everyone even if it makes someone a little embarrassed. Bullying is intended to purely to hurt and humiliate someone. People sometimes pretend to be teasing when they're bullying so they can escape the consequences and because it's fun for them to see you get extra frustrated arguing about whether they're being offensive, but it's easy to tell which is which: if they really are just teasing, they'll stop and say sorry or cool it down the moment you get visibly upset. If they make fun of you for being uptight, they are bullying you.

The difference between them is that bullying is the act of putting someone down in a serious way that can impact them for life and Teasing is the act of making fun or saying thing in a light joking way

In my personal opinion, if a friend says something to you and you only, which you both know is not true and afterwards in a moment of seriousness confirms that it it isn't true. That's teasing. For example two people together and one turns to the other and says "you are so dumb" and then afterwards says something like "but your actually not, just distracted or something". That's teasing, harassment is when someone makes you feel bad and you definitely don't like it.

From the outside, the difference is minimal, but from the inside it's vious. Teasing usually comes from someone you trust and that you know is only messing with you as a friend. Also, if you tell them to stop teasing you because it makes you upset, they most definetely will. Bullying comes from a place full of distrust and negative emotions, and they won't go just because you tell them to at first. It'll take several tries and a long time, whereas teasing would immediately dissapear.

Teasing generally involves a sense of play and mutual joking around,bullying does not involve play or mutual joking around. Teasing is usually for both to have fun with, while bullying is intentionally hurting someone's feelings.

if the one who being teased feels really unconfortable specially until they feel anxiety, sad, afraid, and depressed, it can be called bullying.
