i have a classmate..we always fight when we are together..it's like a fight but it's not serious..that's why our friends often tease us with each other. Awhile ago, we had this one subject wherein he boasted that he was really intelligent in math to me, so when the teacher asked if someone knows the answer, I pointed him and told the teacher that he (my classmate) knows. But then he doesn't know, he just smiled and i heard him saying some expletives but still smiling. the teacher then asked me why I thought he knew, then I said because he was boasting to me. Then the teacher also teased us that it was a good start so my classmates teased us. For me, if i were in his shoes, I would really get mad but he was cool about it. He still talks to me and it seems it's nothing for him. so i'm really really guilty because i know what i did was bad...what do you suggest i would do?

As you said if i were him,i would really be very angry at what you did,too.He is quite a calm and mature boy.According to your introduction,i think your friend and you are very optimistic,and maybe he really didn't take it to heart.So you should not torture yourself any more.I think you are brave enough to regive yourself.

You are always 'fight' when you get together,right?So he took it as a joke this time,too.Certainly,there is no harm to say sorry,and express your apology.

I don't know how old you are, but it sounds to me like he's flirting with you. It sounds like a crush.
Hell, I'm in college and a long-term relationship and a lot of affection is still teasing. My parents have been married for over 25 years and my dad teases my Mom and vice versa every chance they get.

haha.. Maybe he's having a crush on u, and he had fallen for u.. hehe ^_^ Though most guys tend to be more generous or big hearted, but it's only to the ones they like.. Thus, in this case, he's willingly to bear the responsibility, and not allowing yourself to be scolded by the teacher, he's actually protecting u.. hehe ^_^
SO, it's really a good start after all ^_^ haha

I think he is just tying to be call about it or he just really don't care. If he is not angry with it then you don't have to worry about it. You're friends that's why he understand what you did. Surely, you have not intention in humiliating him and its all in the atmosphere. Maybe, you are joking when you pointed at him because the teacher did tease you too. The mood tone of our voice dictates our feelings but if yo still feel guilty about it, there's no harm in apologizing.

I have to agree with zshornick. It sound like there might be a little crushing going on. Do you like him? You don't have to answer that just think about it. If you really feel bad and you know that when you did it you were trying to be mean, than just let him know that if you offended him you are sorry.
