Conceded Paris

"Do not deny to him that you love me." (Act IV, Scene I, Line 24)

Paris, in Romeo and Juliet, is extremely self-confident and conceded. Not only does he believe he is God's gift to women, but he believes that no women would every say no to something he said because of his amazing looks. Paris is the kind of guy in the play that loves himself and believes everyone else loves him too. He is so clueless in the play that he does not notice the way Juliet makes fun of him in Act 4, scene 1. His conceded nature is pretty much his whole charatcer. Whenever he is seen in the play, he acts all cocky. So, I think that the trait conceded is the best way to describe Paris.
