He always has to be the one teasing his family members, or acting indifferent to them. I can't see him crying in front of anyone else. Except, as you said, when he's...|||I don't really hurt him that I'm aware of. I'm very careful of that. I too don't let go easily at all. The validation and appreciation, the random hugs and cuddles are my strong point. :D  I agree....|||Well.. I generally find the bullying, which can hardly be called such, absolutely hilarious.
