@theholisticpsychologist: When someone tells us they don’t find a joke funny, we need to understand where they’re coming from. And respect their feelinfs. In this tiktok, the partner is invalidating her partners feelings by calling her “too sensitive.” She continues to invalidate her by saying that she has to walk on eggshells because she asserts herself. She also tries to triangulate by saying “even my sister thinks you’re too touchy” The partner stays objective, holds her ground, speaks for herself and continues to stay her boundary #selfhealers #boundaries #healingtok #fyp

You're conflating two different things here. Something can be unfunny without being stopped and vice versa.

“Too sensitive” has always been such a trigger for me. Like I can’t have my own emotions? It’s exhausting

My mom always tells me I’m too sensitive and the rude things she say are just jokes. Taught me that I can’t have my own boundaries

my mom told me "I always have to watch what I say for fear of hurting your feelings" then maybe question why what you say might hurt my feelings.

“stop being so sensitive” sounds like: “your emotional awareness makes me uncomfortable because I’m not fully aware of my own emotions”

My ex-husband always made jokes like this at my expense. It's interesting to see the whole interaction. Feels validating.

I had this experience with one of my sisters. She'd be mean to me and then insist I can't take a joke.
