Is Narcissus the best depiction for modern dating in the male side ? It's always something the man lacks that doesn't integrate him in relationships nowadays, And he cannot find what he lacks
>>
>in the male side
No, much more applicable to the female side although men are becoming more feminized so I can see where your coming from.
>>
>>25039585
Maybe. A self-preservation starts to happen where feelings of inadequacy begin to look like narcissism after enough attacks.

A must read

It's this thing where the female's standards have critically been raised to the roof and it leaves the male questioning what exactly he lacks
>>
>>25039622
That depends on if the male in question even perceives he lacks anything. In my case, women shouldn't even have a choice in who they fuck. Without the existence of the state to monopolize violence, anything goes.

>You should take note of this first, easy lesson: if no one ever seems right for you, and then the one person who does seem right doesn't want you, then the problem isn't the person, the problem is you

Ever asked if the right person who doesn't want you, has problems also ? Why this linear emphasis that this "right" person is ideal, No one is ideal and no one is the right person.

It's this what i talked about, It's this search to see what you lack.

>women shouldn't even have a choice in who they fuck.
Thanks god someone finally get it, Male archetype was designed specifically to give females power, With a little sprinkle of religious fanaticism and depiction of the jewish traditional values, Women have power over what they choose.
Race of capitalism makes both genders strive to impress each other and it gets worse as females become more confused and more idealistic as to what exactly they chose.

What was so wrong with her? It wasn't just that she may have been shorter or heavier than he had imagined. What was wrong was in that instant he experienced her, she stopped being anything else

This is true in most cases
>>
>>25039634
Nowhere does it say they're ideal, only "they seem right for you", and only a little further you see him question what kind of a woman would like that kind of man etc. The point was that you're the problem but you shouldn't make yourself the focus

>>25039672
Indeed, It's scary how it's so modern but then the world is built around the Greek
>>
>>25039621
This is too fucking Millennial to read. You actually need a healthy amount of ""narcissism"". And no one in this world knows how the terms ego and narcissism are used in everyday life. There is no book in the world that deals with this buzzword.

Narcissism is the natural state of high energetic and self-love. Children are all highly narcissist but feel affections freely, are more loving than adults, which is why Christ said to become as a child
>>
Narcissus was a beautiful boy who resented other people who couldn't understand his loss of a partner that was like him, whom he thought he found in the rivers again, reminiscent of Hercules and Hylas (among others).

Nothing to do with whatever stories you will make up in your heads regarding the name of Narcissus.
>>
Narcissus was adored Echo by giving her nothing at all. The less he cared the more she desired him.
Had he turned to to Echo what sound would become like the image was, and the image will fade like the sound would had. And reflection would become our word for unrequited love.
For she was no less his echo, as she/or the other was his perfect reflection. Woman is man mirrored. It was his own conscience his own soul that faded in the hills. And as he fell and drowned his image faded too.
