[Grammar Question] Present Perfect Progressive & Simple Past Hey guys, I am struggling with the theoretical background of Perfect Progressive, Present Perfect, and Simple Past. I sent a friend of mine a joke, and I wanted to tell her: "No worries, I fell for this joke before as well" -> Happening in the past, completed in the past OR "No worries, I have been falling for this joke before as well" -> Happening in the past, which recently stopped (the falling for this joke) OR No worries, I have fallen for this joke before as well" -> Happening in the past, affects the now (now I understand the joke). In the German language ("Keine Sorge, auch ich bin schon einmal auf diesen Witz reingefallen"), in both of those three cases, the past is affecting me right now (I understand the joke), the enlightenment came recently (probably 10 minutes ago) and it is also something, that started in the past and finished in the past (not getting the joke, then understanding the joke). How can I choose the correct sentence- and why? Your help is much appreciated. Looking forward to interesting answers.
