How do you joke around with a girl without offending them?

[Anonymous]

Ithink a sence of humor is important but I notice girls get offended easier then guys. So what's a good way to joke around with a girl without offending them?

As I have matured I have come to realize life shouldn't be taken so seriously. I know allot of women who just can't take a joke. I hate people in general that can dish it out all day but can't take it. I hate to say it but if you have a laid back sense of humor there are some women you won't be able to enjoy. It isn't about joking around with a girl and trying not to offend her, it is about finding a girl who likes to joke around the same way you do. You don't want to change your sense of humor for her but just find a compatible one. People are just too uptight.

That's good information Sarah, the trouble is that I'm crazy, like certifiably. Not too many girls get my jokes. Take the soon to be rich and prosperous Mr. Butch. WHY did he have to crash that Honda? Who's motorcycle is that? it's not a motorcycle baby it a chopper. Who's chopper is that? Zeds' baby. Who's Zed? Zeds dead.

You are crazy but that is why I like you :)

try to joke about silly things that they do, rather than things like physical apperance or intelligence. but still be careful, and if you think something you say might hurt a girl's feelings don't say it.

just keep it lighthearted and fun, you'll be fine. :P

Don't joke about their family members, you'll end up running away with your tail between your legs. The only way to find out where the lines are drawn is by trial and error. If she gives you the silent treatment, you know you're in deep sh*t lol.

There's no guideline or rules that apply directly as to what to say or what not to say.

You'll just have to feel the situation and the surrounding company and make judgement calls.

In other words, practice.
