give us at least some context here

Call the person a fat bitch

I'm just really sensitive to insults, even if they're just jokes.

Experience. You need to get your ass kicked a lot and kick some ass. Nobody can tell you any golden trick. But if you want to take some free advice, never get too emotionally invested in any arguments and never over-extend yourself too much. Good luck.

Banter makes me depressed. Cant sleep. Send help.

Be yourself. People will stop talking to you and then you won't have any banter to handle.

Come up with your own banter and dish it right back out.

What if I piss them off too much and they rape me?

Is being witty something you can practice?

I was hoping there would be some other magic way but I guess you're right.

have you tried not being such a massive faggot????????????

>>38733947

Maybe it is idk look it up

At the very least you can try to start the banter so you're not the focus

>Be yourself.
Unironically this. If you're an autist then it should make people leave you alone, don't even pretend to want to speak with them.

Practice makes perfect. It's really fun to get bantz'd and to bantz back

> banter has me literally shaking
> can barely force out a muttering of words much less think straight
> choke back tears and disassociate
> recall event months later
> lie in awake in bed all night in anxiety

Vanter back, makes it a lot more vearable when ypu give as good as you get

>conscious, consistent practice
>frame it as a funny game, rather than an attack on you as a person; taking things seriously is the path to tears.
>learn to laugh at yourself and your shortcomings

The problem is that I don't want to take it too far. Like you know how women can't seem to take a joke or know their limits; I'm afraid that would be me.
