Is it normal if i'm used to people teasing me?

I guess I have gotten accustomed to get made fun of or more like teased. Its not so bad like to the point of bullying, its more like just poking fun at me. So whenever someone is actually accepting of me and doesn't tease me I feel off, I feel like eventually they're going to find something to make fun of. But until then I feel uncomfortable like not myself. Like for instance, right now the guy dating LOVES teasing me. Like I can't catch a break with him. He likes mocking me or kind of lacks taking me seriously at times but only when he's joking like when he teases me. That's one of the things that made me want to stay with him because I felt like at home and familiar with it. I think if he was 100% accepting of me I wouldn't stay with him just cause I'll feel uncomfortable as if he doesn't really know me. Is this normal?

    Sounds like a very screwed up relationship. You need to stop taking shit from anyone. You are probably a nice, intelligent and trustworthy woman, why would you settle for a demeaning relationship like this?
    Friends do not demean each other and I think you should find a completely new set of friends who respect you and value you as a person and as a friend.

      Sometimes. But most of the time I'm like "no thats not true!" or "stop." It's almost like if people don't tease me, I'll ask them are you sure there's nothing you want to tease me about? And if they say no, I'll feel weird like incomplete. Or when my dude for once talks to me in a normal way without teasing me, I feel like he's trying to take me seriously for once but its coming from an insincere place so I don't believe him when he's being normal with me.

        Well teasing is normal
        but you being so insecure when your not being teased is not normal
        there should be teasing moments combined with nonteasing moments

    It's normal, but that doesn't mean you should just take it. Build yourself some sort of knife strap-on, so you can fuck up their asses if they try to tease you.

    THIS IS NORMAL for someone in your socialized state. If you feel comfortable in an environment where your are routinely teased then of course it should bleed into the types of guys you develop romantic relationships with. But the problem is that romantic relationships grow on mutual respect and if the "teasing" persists you begin to subconsciously feel disrespected.

    This may sound rather sad, but on the other hand, perhaps you just crave attention? So... I dunno.
