Teasing is often done with friends. Teasing is good natured and often positive interaction with people. Teasing on a specific thing is usually an isolated incident. Teasing is playful and often followed by mutual laughter with the teaser and the teased. Bullying is meant to hurt people. Bullying is repeated regardless of the feelings of the bullied. Bullies attempt to assert dominance over the bullied.

Bullying is when someone feels hurt by what you say. Teasing is meaningless jokes with someone that they know isn’t true

Part of the difference is one’s intended response. Bullying is meant to be provocative, while teasing is often playful. In addition, it depends on your view. Sometimes someone thinks they’re just teasing, but they’ve seriously hurt someone’s feelings. It’s good to try and make sure that if someone said something mean, that they know that they went too far. If they don’t care, they’re bullying you. If they care and want to make sure they aren’t going too far, they’re most likely just teasing you.

The difference between them is huge. Bullying is when the person is intentionally hurting you, that doesn't want u happy and doesn't want u to be good at anything. While teasing is a way of showing that they care about you to the point where they accually notice those little things about you, that they will never hurt you intentionally, and that they will want u to become better than your current status.

When it comes to these kinds of questions, theres always a blurred line. However, I think people would agree with me that if someone is treating you in a way which you don't want them to, and does not stop when you sincerely ask them too, then they are at least being unkind and that is not fair. The same applies for how we would treat others, of course.
Hope this helps!

Teasing is like joking it shouldn't be really mean and should be taken a little lightly. Bullying is being more aggressive and rude purposely.

Teasing is something that happens occasionally, just because people are mean. Bullying is a repetitive thing where it is because someone is just trying to be mean.

Teasing can be saying something about someone but they also find it funny, bullying is where people continually make fun of a person and make them feel unsafe, hurt, sad, scared ect.

Teasing is something friends do to each other. Bullying is when the teasing is repetitive, and causes the person to be mentally or physically hurt.
