UHM,JACOB/LEAH. I KIND OF LIKE THAT.

i kind of LOVE that, i already said it. i'm thinking he might even imprint on her, they might imprint on each other. because he said, you have to really look at someone, to see someone to imprint on them, and he's not seeing her because he only sees bella and she's not seeing him because she only sees sam. but with time, they might become friends, really close friends, and then even more and well. it might happen. i can see it happening.

My heart breaks for Edward, you know why? He told her that he was waiting all of these years for her, and of that there is no doubt about that, I mean why else would he still be with Bella after all of the Jacob-fest. He has never had eyes for someone else and yet he has to be Bella's blanket while she cries over another man she loves(...). I mean, why does Bella keep going and going about Jacob's pain when Edward is clearly suffering too? Isn't he the love of her existence?

BUT JACOB'S IN PAIN. SERIOUS PAAAAIN. PAAAAAAAAAAIN. that scene killed me :(. i felt so bad for edward. in a way i'm like him. i wouldn't have said a thing. but that's because i'm weak. he did it because he loved her. and it killed me to know that he's actually STUCK with her. like, his feelings CANNOT change. someone so selfless. with someone so selfish. such a bad combination. and he's stuck with it.

Just because Jacob uses his pain as a way of getting to her, which I think is just wrong. Edward doesn't. One of the reasons that I love the Conversation in the tent is because we got to know a lot from Edward's mind. I just don't understand why people think Edward is perfect, he is far from it,really. He won't use his pain as a way of getting advantage of her, he knows that it makes her suffer too so he won't do it.

i think he hid it from her for her own good. like if she saw how hurt he was she wouldn't even want to choose she would just want to make it right. i also think edward is far from perfect. i thought that even in new moon when he left her. he did the wrong thing but for good reasons. and then with all the controlling in the beginning of eclipse. even though in the end, it seemed like he was in an abusive relationship, not her, as obviously intended.

Then we have her wishing she had another set of arms around her when Edward was comforting her, WTF?! Like he isn't doing enough.

i wanted to kill her there. thats the exact moment i lost all of the respect i had for her. YOU'VE MADE YOUR CHOICE. and now you're regretting it and stuff. just shows us how immature she really is.

You know what this book missed? an explanation from Bella to Edward telling him why she chose him over Jacob, not just a 'easy, you are the one I can't live without' crappy line. IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE FOR HER TO BE ALL OVER THE PLACE BECAUSE OF JACOB THE WHOLE DAMN BOOK AND JUST THROW ONE LINE AT EDWARD SAYING WHY CHOSE HIM. k, i'm done with Caps ='D

like i said i still have my hopes for BD. i was just thinking today how awesome it would be if jacob found himself a girlfriend and then he was like hitting her and stuff and she thought "wow good thing i chose edward". and i'm like the biggest fighter against domestic violence and abusive relationships! that's where it had gotten me. actually approving of that (well of course, fictionally, but still). but i changed my mind right after i thought about it.

Ugh, that reminds me how Jacob would look into Bella's eyes for a long time hoping that he would imprint her,wtf. I can see Jacob/Leah happening too, they are both not thinking clearly right now, I think that the main reason for the whole Jacob/Leah both being hurt storyline it's for them to actually see that they are both worthy.

I probably would have done it too, I'm weak like that.I remember how shocked and angry I was when I read that(shocked because of Bella's reckless behavior and angry at Edward).Bella needs a big reality check. BD wont be goot at all if there's no recognition on how Bella was seriously FTL in Eclipse. People think that because at the end she decided to go through with the wedding and all that she cleared herself, that's not true. The way she expressed herself about it made me think she still felt forced but that she went through with it because she wanted to forget Jacob.

You are right, he did give her a chance.Just imagine all of the times that he left Bella with Jacob, I can bet on anything that Jacob was flashing his thoughts for Edward. Which just shows so much self-control from his part.

ME TOO! When she said that I remember that those were my exact thoughts, I was so angry that I had to stop reading for a while. Sh led Jacob on, with the whole hand holding and stuff. I can't forgive her for kissing Jacob while engaged with Edward, not now, not ever.

You know what I noticed? how come Jacob can use all his strength on her while kissing her but Edward can't. DOUBLE STANDARDS! Seriously, that second kiss felt like such an assault, Edward always knows what Bella wants while kissing her, if she wants to push him away, he'll let go of her but with Jacob we have him kissing her not caring of what she wants and we have a super dense!Bella who thinks he actually confused her moves by desire. BIGGEST WTF EVER.

lololololol,That reminds me of a Fic of Edward beating Bella, I WAS SOO PISSED OFF. WTF!
