How do I deal with a friend problem?

So I have 4 friends, ( 1 I dont want to be friends with, the one I have a problem with.and they know me as the funny person, the one that has all the humor. So, I tell jokes and that kind of stuff. I don't mean it of course, but I tell jokes about them and they laugh at how funny it is. Except for 1. This "friend" has been friends with me for a while, but he seems to annoy me ALOT, so I don't want to be friends with him. But I just want to make my friends happy and just pretend. Here is the problem. He takes the jokes I say seriously. And what I say isn't even true about him. He will be like, why would you say that I am like that!? That is so mean. This is Ben going on for a month. He started to get me annoyed, so I slowly started telling jokes about him more then others. Now that 2 months have passed, I am ashamed of myself.I now only tell. Jokes about him. I want to stop but my friends are now like, you are the funniest person I can be friends with! I don't know why but I keep going. Now on the friend that is getting the jokes told on, I feel so horrible now. He is all depressed and is saying I am a bully. I feel horrible because I think I really am one. But here is the worst part. He is threatening me to report me to a teacher about me being a bully. Here is the worst part, my parents always call me the best ( don't worry, I'm the only) son they could ever have and I'm never inappropriate. They are overprotective about me, and if they found out I am a bully they wouldn't talk to me for months. I am a bully. I can't stop. I don't want to get reported. I don't want to lose my friends. Now I am getting depressed about it myself. I feel horrible. I don't know what to do. Tryied to ignore him, it didn't work. I tried to be nice, and he accused me that I was faking to make my friends laugh. What should I do! And fast, he could report to me at any time!

    Well your not a bully you just like joking around. I do too but some people dont have the same sense of humor as you. Tell him that your joking and your sorry. Refrain from talking to him, not in a bitchy and mean way, but seeing as your not actually his friend I dont see why you hang out with him

    Hope I helped x

    Tell Him It Was A Joke. I Mean Seriously How ******* Annoying Can One Kid Be.?!-.- Tell Him He Annoys You And That HES A Bully If Hes Gonna Tell On His Friend. Un-Friend Him, Simple. Tell The Teachers You Didn't Say That And Have Your Other Friends Deny It Too. He Sounds Annoying And If Hes Threatining You For Something As Little As Making A Joke Then He Can Die Lol. Wish Ya Luck.
