I don’t really care that much. If they are doing it to be insulting that’s just the type of person they are. If they do it because they are uninformed I can forgive and happily educate them on the fact that brains just work differently on a person to person basis.
In that situation specifically, seeing as your friend meant no harm, id probably just tell them “hey man, that’s not cool just so you know for future reference.” And just because feelings are hurt doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad thing. It just means that a line was unintentionally crossed because they didn’t know the line was there. Everyone has these lines and half of life is just figuring out where your lines are and where the lines of the people you care about are. If your friend had no bad intentions I’d say don’t take it personally. I know it can be hard sometimes, but just remember that they are your friend.
