* Pele - the Hawaiian Goddess of Lava is known for her [[Incredibly Lame Pun|fiery temper]]. She fell in love often and most of those young men were not fortunate to escape with their lives. The incredible details of some of the stories is what really makes her special. In one story Pele throws Lava at her Lover, her own favorite little sister, the sister's House (forest, actually), and sister's Best Friend for good measure. Because she THOUGHT the Lover and Sister may like each other, when in reality they were both totally loyal to Pele. (Of course they bonded because of this trauma and proved Pele right. Irony Burnnn) [[wikipedia:Hiiaka|The Other Wiki tells the tale]]
** Also another unfortunate young man that Pele fell in love with was already in a totally happy relationship, and had no intention of cheating on his girl, even with a Goddess. Pele was not impressed by his moral fibre. [http://hulainaloha.blogspot.com/2009/04/pele-and-ohia-tree.html Story of Ohia and Lehua]
* Dido in ''[[
* There is a Japanese folktale concerning a woman named Kiyohime who, when rejected by the object of her affections, turns into a dragon and kills him. [[wikipedia:Kiyohime|More information]] can be found on [[The Other Wiki]].
* The huldra of Scandinavian folklore are a [[The Fair Folk|type of fairy]] who appear as beautiful women with cow or horse tails. Although they are often eager to marry, they are also very strict and demanding, and if you even think of turning one down, [[If I Can't Have You|she will kill you]].
* Ishtar (Inanna) of [[Mesopotamian Mythology]]. All of her lovers ended up dead, which is why [[The Epic of Gilgamesh|Gilgamesh]] turns her down when she asks him to marry her. Cue Ishtar [[Daddy's Girl|running to her daddy]], pitching a fit, and threatening to cause a [[Zombie Apocalypse]] if he doesn't give her the [[MacGuffin|Bull of Heaven]] instead (even though doing so will cause a drought.) She later has her husband Tammuz/Dumuzi [[Dragged Off to Hell]] for cheating on her while [[
* The story of the four winds in [[Native American Mythology|Lakota mythology]]. They were all in love with the goddess Wohpe. She chose the South Wind, due to the fact that he wasn't so vocal about it. The North Wind tries to steal her away from his younger brother every winter. It should be noted that the North Wind is represented by the color [[White-Haired Pretty Boy|white]], and the South Wind is represented by the color [[Law of Chromatic Superiority|red]].
* In [[Classical Mythology]], Persephone turns a girl into a mint plant, and then stamps on her, for daring to flirt with her husband Hades. The weird thing is that Persephone ended up as Hades' wife when Hades ''captured her and forced her into marriage'', so it must take some extreme [[Stockholm Syndrome]] for her to not only grow to love him, but to become ''jealously protective of him.''
