The imprint protects the baby machine not it's true love, it makes it so the wolf so that one person is top priority over everything, even their child which makes sense because it's there only for breeding purposes. If the child dies, but the mother doesn't you can alway make more babies. It basic animal instinct, not love. It's forcing wolves to have feelings for people the wouldn't have if imprint wasn't in place. That's why it's not love, their personality is now shifted to fit the imprintee, they have to change in order for them to be compatible. Does that in anyway sound better than a teenage girl changing everything about herself so her crush will like her? No.

Also I've read the entire series about ten times and probably then some (more than one should have), and I can tell you that Jacob is either out of character because the author screwed up or the imprint. My guess is the author screwed up, but she'll probably say it's the imprint to cover her tracks. It's not Jacob in that last half of Breaking Dawn, it's basically the Stepford version of him who forsakes pretty much anyone that has nothing to do with Renesemee.

Also never said I didn't believe in love at first sight, just said it wasn't imprinting nor what Bella and Edward had, actually in both cases it's obsession that doesn't grow or evolve to anything more. They're not love. But anyway I'm done arguing with a 14-16 year-old girl, I got important sh*t to do and it does not involve continuing this juvenile conversation about a fictional concept based of a real concept that applies to ducks and how they feel about their young which is pretty much the only way imprinting is ever cute.
