  1. tantalizingly

    Tantalizingly is an adverb that describes something done in a manner that arouses or stimulates interest or desire, often by being slightly out of reach or by withholding something desired from someone. It originates from the Greek myth of Tantalus, who was forever tempted with food and drink just out of his reach. So, if something is tantalizingly close, it's very close and incredibly tempting, but still impossible to get or achieve.
