Hey everyone, I'm looking for any stories throughout ancient mythology involving a character running away from his problems rather than facing them and paying the price for it. Any ideas?

Re: Mythology research help
I can't think of any characters like that off the top of my head, but Bulfynch's Mythology is one of THE references on mythology, from the Greeks and Romans to the Norse, the Medieval myths and more. A must have for the personal home library.
And: ditto on Aquarius men.
