(guys) ball busting
so i knew i read a thread on this a LONG LONG time ago, but i searched and i didn't find the thread at all.
anyways, i know that guys bust each others balls all the time, and i am certainly guilty of it too.. we are all "trained' from childhood to take it like a man and become "hardened" in some way..
but i think i had less of that training. today when i was hanging out with my friends i think one of my friends who happens to ball-bust alot on everyone, he busted on me overly much and i just kind of got pissed.
and when i get pissed, i hear its very obvious, because usually i'm cheery, sociable and very talkative, but when i get pissed (i'm a thinker) and i just keep thinking about the statements/comments/insults that made me pissed. i become kind of quiet, and distracted, and i hear it is written all over my face.
anyways, i want to improve socially. i just want to know what everyoen's suggestions are on how to not let it get to you when it just gets piled on you, and how to "mask" your pissed off state..
and a suggestion might be to bust back.. i usually do but when it gets piled on, the sting factor makes me unable to think of comebacks and i just kind of sit their and think about it.
