So I have this... 'friend'

When I'm straight shooting with the way I speak to her she's okay but if I start joking around she runs away 🏃🏻‍♀️
So I've been trying not to joke around when speaking with her, but I feel like I'm holding back a part of myself - should I continue to hold that part of myself back to tend to her needs or shall I just be 100% me and if she doesn't like it she can go? Or do you suggest something else entirely?

I would only cut back on the jokes as much as what makes you feel comfortable. I think you have to decide that. I don’t think you can be someone you’re not.

@Spoiledbrat I don't like to hold back AT ALL 😂
It's still me, just not all of me 🙂

I didn’t tell you to hold back. 😂 I said I think you should do what makes you feel comfortable. 😂By the way, you asked. 😂 @TheGoodGuy

@Spoiledbrat Well it's true you didn't say those exact words, but "cut back on the jokes" means I'll be holding back 😁

I said IF YOU WANT TO. @TheGoodGuy

If you don’t don’t. We dab have a war.

@Spoiledbrat we're not having a war 🙂

Good because I never told you should or should not do anything. @TheGoodGuy

@Spoiledbrat I know, you just said about cutting back on the jokes to what makes me feel comfortable. Thank you 🙂
