Dear {Name},
Sometimes I take a joke too far and I don't even realize it. Sometimes I get carried away trying to make myself look clever or funny or smart. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings and I'm really sorry that my behavior became so hurtful. Teasing is only funny if both people like the joke, and I realize now that my joking was mean rather than funny.
I hope you can forgive me. I will try to be more respectful and understanding in my future interactions with you.
Sincerely,
{Your Name}
