Pranks in a relationship can be tricky. They can be playful and silly like hiding your partner’s favorite snack to get a laugh or switching the salt and sugar in the kitchen.
Other times, they’re more pointed like gaslighting or manipulating your partner to get out of a bad situation or prove a point.
On TikTok , women are sharing confessions that run the full spectrum — from teasing a partner about a celebrity crush to convincing an ex to eat a whole jar of pepperoncini.
Basically, all the little things that may or may not have traumatized the men in their lives.
Scroll to see some of the most unhinged examples, and decide for yourself who crossed a line and who should take home the crown for chaotic comedy gold.

Malorie N. Peters , Laura Chouette Report
my ex was so insistent we would eventually get back together after I left finally for cheating, drinking, etc and wanted to protect my kids. he kept backing out of child support - court and military mandated btw, so I made him think I missed him and just needed to learn to trust again. four years of manipulating this man to pay for stuff for the kids and one of our vacations before I finally told him it was never gonna happen. he helped me save for a new car and college and had no idea. it’s been another 13 years and the dude still isn’t over me.

Nataly , Karolina Grabowska Report
I convinced my ex that eating an entire jar of Peperoncinis AND drinking all the juice would… erm… “make him larger.” Not only did he eat all of them and drink all the juice, he bought more jars himself and continued this process for an entire week. Mind you, I told him to do this with just one jar. He ended up severely dehydrated from getting fire diarrhea which landed him in the hospital for IV fluids. Wish I was there to witness him explain the series of events in the ER

I use to gaslight my bf into thinking he had skid marks on his underwear. Before bed he’d ask me for a back massage. He’d lay on the bed in just his underwear and I’d go wow you didn’t wipe good. And I wouldn’t get off him so he could check and it would send him into orbit. He’s so clean that the thought of that happening would give him so much anxiety. Thankful to say he’s never had skid marks
