bullying will be bringing intentional emotional pain. teasing is something that should be between friends- unintentional. be clear on how it makes you feel and if it ensues, attempt to steer clear of them

There is not much of a difference between the two. Bullying can involve physical violence where teasing does not. Most people that tease claim to be joking.

Teasing in consensual while bullying is not.
The teaser would stop if asked but the bully would not.

The line between bullying and teasing is usually the topic. Teasing is usually focused on something that you are proud of or have a strong self esteem toward. It could also be something that is focused on something that is clearly untrue. Bullying is usually the opposite and is focused on things you are sensitive or embarrassed about. For example calling your skinny friend fat for eating a donut is teasing, doing the same to an overweight peer is probably bullying.

Bullying means to hurt verbally and physically someone else. That person would feel bad, be scared of you and even cry.
Teasing on the other hand, means that you „annoy“ that person but not in such a way as bullying. You both laugh and know that it is not meant in a bad way.

The main difference between bullying and teasing is that bullying is regular and displays an imbalance of power, while teasing is less regular and is usually between two equals. Also, some friends may tease you, but a true friend will never bully you. I hope that this information helps!

Teasing is more like a type of joking around you do with your friends and not meant in a malicous way most of the time. For example, it wouldn't offend you so much in some scenarious whereas bullying is a serious matter and should be told to a trusted adult immediatly. You will feel uncomfortable if your being 'bullied' and if your feel ok with it you wont sense any discomfort from the words said to you or actions

Bullying is when someone makes fun of you and it can go far line to beating someone up. Teasing is when someone makes fun of you but in kind of friendly way and it doesn’t go that far like the bullying.

Teasing is a once in a while, lighthearted, poking fun at someone in a friendly manner. Bullying is more serious. Bullying is an everyday or almost everyday very mean action that is not friendly.
