- pmarreck 5y agoI would have preferred some lighthearted ribbing. Again, it can be interpreted as a sign of intimacy. I don't know how else to explain it. One of my best friends actually ribs me a lot. And because I am self-confident and candid, I can take it. Heck, my significant other and I rib each other plenty. We know each others' strengths and weaknesses. It is arguable that being fine with some ribbing is proof of comfortableness with oneself and a lack of insecurity. But, yes, people like you exist. I once teased a former boss for his fear of puppies (yes, puppies. Not just "dogs"... Puppies) by playing a prank where some puppies barked from behind his desk. He jumped. It did not fly very well. Actually, in hindsight, perhaps don't tease your boss, even if you think you're on good terms with them...
