Narcissus spurned echo because he was extremely good looking and did not pay attention to any of the women who tried to get his attention. A lot of women were heartbroken because of him, but it did not matter to him. Many of the women prayed to the Gods and the Gods replied by saying "May he who loves not others love himself." Aphrodite made this true. When Narcissus bent over a clear pool, he saw his reflection and fell in love with himself.
That is why narcissistic means egotistic: characteristic of those having an inflated idea of their own importance.
