Well if you don't write it, I will! LOL Some day... Jacob deserves it.
The closest anyone ever came to this scenario is lilabut, and I can't remember the name of the fic, but Jacob fell in love with a girl named Olivia (who I really liked), when Bella left with Edward. Olivia broke up with Jacob, not vice-versa, when Bella came back, because she sensed from the beginning that Jacob had been hurt badly, and knew that his feelings for Bella were not resolved. It was bittersweet, though. He and Olivia had genuine feelings for each other, and he slept with her.
*grumbles* Wish I could remember the name of the fic!
mera_naam also wrote a fantastic fic where Bella goes away to school, and slowly Jacob is just over her. She comes back to visit, exactly the same old Bella, and he's just not interested anymore. Years later, a grown-up and much different Bella returns, and they get to know each other as adults, with respect, and fall in love again. I would highly rec both fics! Sorry. Didn't mean to ramble on. You're probably sorry you even commented on my comment, now! LOL

See now you got me racking my brain about a fic. There was another one were Bella came back to town and she was in her car watching as Jake played with his kids and laughed with his wife. He had no regrets while she had tons, she kept her composure though and left them to be in the park happy and whatnot. What I loved was that, it didn't leave you wondering if he felt something for her, you knew by the end he was content with his life. But I can't remember if he had imprinted or not.

Oh! Oh! I read that one too! But on JBNP, and it was to the music of Adele - Someone Like You! And no, he didn't imprint (thank god - I HATE imprinting!), just fell in love and had kids.
Haha! Now I'm racking my brain for a fic, too. But that is bad *smacks hand* because I'm in the middle of two new ones right now. So you do it!
