You know some couples are actually secure enough with each other not to freak out if their partners hints that they sometimes think about other people
I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say "secure with each other" (inertia?), but I'd think if they were secure and self-assured, they'd say, Time to move on; I can do better than settle for someone who settles for me.
and are actually capable of taking a joke about it.
I find it revealing that your use of "joke" in that sentence works the same way as "slap across the face."
If you can show me an unexpected, insightful twist, I might laugh. If you're just rude, I'll treat you like any other arsehole, and if you expect to smile (and encourage further arseholosity) in reply, I'll treat you like an arse twice. Before trying to avoid you in the future.
I find society's obsession with "seeking a guy who can make you laugh" and such quite tiring; you get a low percentage of people who are actually talented that way, and a large percentage of idiots who read that as a requirement and then are trite or rude and hope people will mistake that for funny. Humour's so overrated it's not even funny.
