Jacob didn't "settle" for Renesmee because he couldn't have Bella and he most certainly isn't "waiting for her to grow up." You can't settle for anything when you didn't have a choice in the first place. He didn't choose imprinting - at all. If we're gonna stay in character here, I doubt he would have chosen to imprint on the daughter of Bella and Edward, out of all people, anyway. What he did wasn't at all pedophilic... it wasn't even to be a villain or anything like that. Stephenie Meyer wrote it that way, and if she had meant for it to be creepy, she would have said so. Take it as you may, but Jacob's imprinting was 100% involuntary.
