User blog comment:Nora cullen/WHY DOES EVERYBODY DISS EDWARD!?!?!?!?/@comment-4054533-20120702220412/@comment-4054533-20120702220651

1. Yes, Edward does lie to "protect" -- in his eyes it's protection, but in real life it is being controlling, which isn't a good thing at all. In a way, it is abuse.

2. I'm sure he'll protect, but he doesn't really exist.

3. That's an opinion. And loving someone because they're "beautiful" isn't a good reason to love them at all.

4. The last time I checked, real men don't sparkle.

5. That's a matter of opinion. Like I said, Edward isn't real so you can't marry him, and some people like Alice while others don't. Some people find her annoying.
