Best Answer

Tantalizing is a term that derived from the torture of Tantalus son of Zeus and Pluto [Πλουτώ]. His torture was to be standing in the middle of a water pool. Above his head there were branches of a tree full of fruits. When he reached above to collect the fruits the branches were moving far from his reach. When he was bending to drink water the water went far from his reach.
