Is it normal for a friend to tease you, but you not allowed to do the same?

I have a friend that constantly likes to be silly and tease me, however when I do the same to him he gets mad and says, “f*ck you” then stops talking to me or blocks me on socia media.

      Come on now, that is no word to use against the OP's "friend", it is a guy so you should say "Ditch the bastard".

      But other than that, true true.

    That's usually a sign of someone being insecure. If the teasing is something like things that if used in a non-joking manner would be insulting, it makes them feel better about themselves to insult you, but they find it threatening to their security to receive the same treatment, even as a joke.

    Either that or you may be hitting a touchy subject with your teasing and not realizing it.

    I knew a girl in school who was a friend of my best friend's, and she used to tease me and try to get others to join in on it like crazy. Thinking we were all joking, I started to do it back and she began crying and told our teacher on me, lol. It turned out that she was extremely jealous of me being friends with her friend. She began becoming just plain mean as she got older, and is still weird towards me on the occasion we bump into each other in public to this day. Some people are just like that and there isn't much you can do about it.

    • His style of joking is making fun of my disorders and changing the subject or spamming gifs at me. He says he does it because he’s depressed.

        That's very odd and incredibly insensitive and disrespectful towards you. Being depressed is not an excuse either, especially if he is hurt when the joking is done back to him.

    I won't say it's ok.
    But it is normal.
    It's only complaining, when someone else is doing it.
    I deal with it too.
    People say you complain to much if say anything.
    Then go on and bitch about things, and repeat themselves.
    Some folks are self centered.
    Not much you can do about it.

    There are people like that who can dish it out but not take it.

    The best thing to do is to dish out personal insults in real life

    That's not a true friend! Friendship must be a road that runs both ways. Also please remember that conversation is a volley, not a marathon. When we speak with so called friends it must be a back, and forth like a friendly tennis match.

    You need not put up with this bullshit, dear heart. Please do me a me a favor, and ask yourself whether it's just this one person in your life who has behaved like this, or whether there is a pattern of other people who have treated you likewise in the past?

    I look forward to your response.

    • Including my friend, it’s three people who’ve behaved this way to me. My father and my sister. These three people all have depression as well.

        Sounds like your family of origin has trained you to accept bullshit from people.
