My older sister used to be into pranks and it took someone getting hurt for her to forever stop.
Several years ago, she once did a fake rejection prank on her then boyfriend (now husband of 2 kids). She accidentally discovered his surprise on the drawer but she decided to prank him. She would say no first and pretend to be serious but then tell him she was just joking and accept it.
The prank went horrible. No one in the family nor her friends found it funny, she almost lost him, it took her a couple weeks to reassure him it was a fake rejection, that she was just joking about the no. He recovered eventually but to know for sure she didn't mean it, she had to ask him on the 2nd time.
I still remembered his expression very clearly. He seemed nearly on the verge of tears, trying to be strong but he was indeed super hurt. That was the first time I've ever saw a man that hurt, as if emotionally destroyed at that moment. I was shocked to be honest. Is a man's ego/feelings indeed as fragile as ours?

but yeah those pranks are horrible to be joked about. I've seen on youtube about some woman doing a ''I want a divorce'' prank on her husband. The dude ended up crying and she had to reassure him it was just a joke.
