It’s often said that women play with men’s emotion and ego, despite being repeatedly referred to as the fairer sex. So without further ado, let us dive into what things girls may do to guys that the world interprets as cruel, starting with the tenth most cruel thing,based on a list put together by foxnews
15. Leading guys on
A lot of girls do this, sometimes without realizing it. Dropping cute hints, holding hands casually, talking to them day in and day out, flirty (seemingly harmless) text messages and what not. Well, girls, you are leading the man on. If you realize it, stop doing it right then. It is sucky to keep a man thinking ‘oh, she really likes me’ when actually ‘he’s just a friend’. Ladies, be nice and maintain the distance. Of course he is your best pal and you spend the best time in the world with him but keep it to that. Let him treat you like a girl who would never hit on him – unless you really have feelings for him. Otherwise, leave him in the real friends’ zone where friends remain friends and where there are no expectations. Breaking his heart when his heart wasn’t even there in the first place is not just cruel; it’s torture.

14. Messing with their computer settings
Oh no no, this is a biggie. A wise idea would be to have your own computer, preferably separate from your guy’s. We have the habit of customizing whatever we have. Well, obviously, we like comfortable and relatable stuff. Same goes for the guys. However, we wouldn’t mind so much if someone changes our computer’s settings; but meddling with your guy’s precious computer settings – oh boy, that’s dangerous. It will break his heart, make him cringe and also make him angry. You might think it’s a regular high school locker that you are messing with but this is way beyond that. Your man’s computer settings are not to be touched. Period.

13. Getting them to talk
Not stereotyping but generally, men find it hard to emote. If we go into the reasons of why men don’t cry, we will reach nothing. Honestly speaking, it is a personal choice. However, men, on a general basis can hardly be seen going all out with their emotions. They don’t like getting soft. According to various media texts, it’s only when they are inebriated that they can open up their minds. Even among friends, they keep themselves closed. Therefore, it is very difficult to get them to speak something about a thing they feel deeply about. Pestering them or asking them to speak will make things worse. They will hide their feeling in deeper and become harsh on the outside, killing (mentally) their own selves in the process. Give your man time to heal. You will know when he wants to come back to you.

12. Trying to clean their room
Women have a habit of cleaning things on the way and their guy’s room somehow always comes first. The room is a mess, that’s true. But any attempts at cleaning it can result in misplacing their things. It is a general habit of a lot of people. We scatter things around and find them easily, the minute they get organized, we are at a loss. All of us can be accused of screaming at our poor mothers who deal with our messy rooms. It’s the same with guys. They don’t like their stuff to be touched. Use it and keep it back where you found it. Arranging and organizing will make them lose things and making someone scout for something that they would’ve found easily otherwise is being quite harsh.

11. Keep them hanging for that answer
It’s simple – you either like that guy, or you don’t. Chances are if you didn’t even have the slightest hint that he liked you, you don’t like him. But if you did think of him as crush, go for it. Either way, if you keep dilly dallying, acting like a flower lady who cannot make up her mind for god knows what reasons, you will not only be cruel to the poor lovelorn chap, you will probably lose respect in his eyes. Keeping someone waiting for an answer is heartbreaking for anyone. You know how sad you get when you can’t get that reply confirming your girls’ night out? Keeping a guy hanging is ten times worse.10. They don’t pick up the phone: While men feel good
as they manage to take the girls’ phone number, the girls often give them a fake number or don’t pick up the call.
9. Use men for free drinks: Some women go out never planning to spend any of their own money on drinks at the bar or club. Instead, they count on their feminine wiles to convince guys to shell out for their libations. While some of them might begin to get to know him, the cruel and heartless ones will take that drink, flirt a little and move on.
8. Use men as placeholders: If she is a decent person, she’ll just get it over with and dump the boy, but if she’s cruel, she’ll hold on to him for a while until somebody new comes along. These girls don’t like to be alone and without a relationship, so instead of putting you out of your misery and ending it, she’ll string you along until she meets someone to replace you.
7. Emotionally manipulate men: Men don’t like to see women cry and some cruel women take advantage of the fact and use it to get what they want. A few tears would make men do anything to get it to stop.
6. Use physical violence: While men hitting girls are often termed nasty, some cruel women feel it’s perfectly acceptable to hit their boyfriends, as he would never hit her back. This type of woman feels like she can inflict any kind physical pain on him without fear of repercussion.
5. Criticize their men in public: Cruel women criticize and humiliate their men in public places. They often poke fun at her man or even soundly debase him.
4. They don’t disclose their relationship status: It’s certainly not the worst thing a woman could do to a man, but it is annoying when she’s already in a relationship and lets you assume that she’s available so that she can enjoy the man’s flirtation and flattery
3. They withhold sex: This is a time-tested, and frequently used, cruel thing for women to do to men. For most men, sex is as important as breathing, so withholding it in order to get something she wants or simply to punish her man for his transgressions is a pretty awful thing to do, even if it is effective.
2. They test their men: You’re all ready to go for a night out with your friends, when your girlfriend calls and asks you to change your plans to be with her instead. She doesn’t have any particular reason; she just wants to see you. She knows that you had plans to meet up with the guys, but if you really loved her, you’d come over to her place instead. If her request comes with an “if you really loved me,” then it’s a test. If you choose anything other than immediately rushing to her side, you’re going to fail. This kind of testing in a relationship is indeed cruel and petty.
1. They flirt to inspire jealousy: Maybe she’s feeling underappreciated, maybe you’ve just had a big fight or maybe she just enjoys the tortured look on your face. For whatever reason, girls who flirt obviously with other guys in front of their boyfriends are immature and manipulative.
Guys do you agree, and ladies are you guilty of doing all if not some of the ten things in the list above?
