Malvolio

Detailed explanation-1: -Malvolio’s arrogant scorn delights Feste, and he easily parries Malvolio’s weak wit and, thereby, impresses Olivia . She tells Malvolio that he is “sick of self-love” and “distempered.” Jesters, she says, do not slander; it is their craft, a harmless craft, and that Feste is only reproving Malvolio.
Detailed explanation-2: -In twelfth night, Malvolio’s self-love is that of a reckless and unsettling kind. With a name that translates to “ill will” in Italian, it appears the audience are not supposed to warm to this unrelenting and strict Puritan.
Detailed explanation-3: -Malvolio’s self-love is commented on by Olivia, and he is soundly punished for his self-regard and for his readiness to believe that my lady loves me (II. 5.137). Sir Toby reports that Maria adores him (II. 3.151).
Detailed explanation-4: -Malvolio is the perfect example of self-love. Some Might even say that Malvolio is conceited. He considers himself to be a nice looking and decent man. Malvolio believes that women would love to be with him.
Detailed explanation-5: -Shakespeare pokes gentle fun around them and their attitude to love. Viola falls in love with Orsino at first sight, as well as Olivia with Cesario, Sebastian with Olivia.
