Default Re: What does "Good Sense Of Humour" mean?

I don't think a sense of humour on its own is worth much.

If person A says that person B has a good sense of humour it usually means that person A likes person B, it doesn't necessarily mean person B is especially witty. Person A probably doesn't like person B because of their sense of humour.

I think I am quite witty and I can make people laugh but I'm sure that most of these people would say that I don't have a sense of humour. I think it's because people don't easily come to like me very much and just being funny doesn't make up for these deficiencies.

If I knew what these deficiences are I could do something about them. For most of my life I've felt that it is related to the way I look. I've also considered that I am not very good at interpreting non-verbal/emotional communication between people - that I'm a bit Autistic in other words. The problem probably results from a combination of the two things.

I disagree in a sense that to express humour at least outwardly you need confidence. If you have no confidence then you will just end up chuckling to yourself.

A Good sense of humour.
"Good" as in the humour I like and find funny, other peoples humour is not funny and I find it boring.
I'm looking for someone just like me or if not I'll judge them.
