You have to understand Jacob's side to things. Jacob was deeply in love with Bella at that time. Jacob also knew that Bella was in love with him, but she also loved Edward. So...to be with Edward, Bella was going to have to be turned into a vampire. Jacob was trying to demonstrate the 'human' relationship that Bella could possibly have with him. Remember, Edward and Bella NEVER kissed too heavily. Light smacks on the lips...anything further and Bella could have had her tongue and lips shredded by Edward's razor sharp teeth. Not to even mention the venom in Edward's mouth. So, Bella had never been truly kissed before Jacob finally kissed her. And Jacob kissed Bella how a man kisses a woman...with much passion. Jacob also didn't have to end the kiss because it was going too far...because Jacob's kiss wouldn't have injured human Bella like Edward would have. Bella enjoyed the human kiss she received from Jacob...it was her first true kiss. And Jacob was hoping he could win Bella's affections by doing this. You really can't blame the guy. The girl he was in love with was going to become a walking corpse in just a few weeks.
