How to deal with him

[kookiestealer]

I have a male friend(?) that is super social and we often joke about that he has many friends. I have told him that i suffer from social anxiety, but he has recently started to joke that I only have one friend or no friends. I had crumbling anxiety a few years ago, and only had my family. Now things are going well and I have at least 10 people that I consider friends, and a lot of acquaintances. We also have a mutual friend group, but I'm specially close with one girl,besides him. But he jokes that I will become friendless if I loose her. It hurts and when I came home I started to cry. I like to certain sports, and often ask people if they want too join in, but get turned down because they cant etc. and he will often make a comment like: Poor *name*!

sounds toxic i can relate smh... try to distance yourself i guess

Have u ever talk about it with him? Just say clearly what bothers u. Maybe he is teasing u with no ill intentions. 
if he doesn’t understand or stays the same after, bye bye, u dont need to be reminded constantly about ur past problems

well be as serious as you can and if he doesn't get it then drop him!

It's better just to tell him that this teasing is bothering you. Maybe he doesn't know it bothers you. If he knows that this bothers you then and he's still doing it then I'd drop him as a friend/ignore him till he doesn't realize that he's not funny with his "joke". You don't need friends that make you cry.

This isn't average friendly banter, this is actually really toxic. If I was you I'd start distancing myself from someone like that.

That being said, feel free to confront them if you'd like. If they apologise and stop their nonsense then things should be fine. If they react by being snarky or calling you "too sensitive" drop them.

He sounds like an absolute asshole, you should cut ties with him
