What prevents Narcissus from falling in love with a woman?
He prefer to love his image and He doesn't care if a beautiful lady just pass by. He thinks it's just a waste of time...He the most beautiful creature in the world.
Reply:What prevents Narcissus from falling in love with anyone, man or woman, is his inability to feel love, and thus connection, in the first place. He was so 'cursed' because he spurned the advances of many suitors, male and female, and thus the goddess of love and beauty made him feel the helpless pangs of love he so created in others.





Although it is not stated in the myths, so far as I can tell, I think it suffice to say that it is Echo who so laid the curse upon him. I say this because Echo is also 'cursed' by Narcissus' curse, since he now is incapable of loving anyone other than himself. Thus Echo demonstrates her love for Narcissus in the only way she can: by becoming an 'echo' of his own desires. Thus, Narcissus does fall in love with Echo, but can only 'see' her when he sees himself, for Echo 'repeats' the love he gives, like his reflection in the water kissing him back.





The myth of Narcissus is meant to convey that one must first experience love towards or within oneself before one can begin to feel or recognize love with another. The myth of Echo is meant to convey that before one can have another's love in return, they must first be able to give to the lover that which they desire, which thus validates their lover's being (I am what I desire.)
Reply:Isn't it just that he's too in love with himself?
Reply:Narcissus is so taken with himself that he thinks of nothing else. He cares about and loves only himself.
Reply:Well, the first thing was that he was in love with himself. The second thing was that he drowned because he went to kiss his reflection in a pond. I guess he couldn't swim, like royalty never had swimming lessons back then .... either that or he was too dumb to stand up. Like the urban legend states, people can drown in a table spoon of water. :)
Reply:All evil, antisocial, narcissistic, sociopathic psychopaths are incapable of having any love for anyone.
