Well, you have to know Bella's past to really know her. Her parent's divorced when she was very little. She had little contact with her father and was mostly raised by her mother. Her mother was a kindergarten teacher, so Bella was raised mostly on her mother's income. She wasn't poor...but barely made it to middle class. She's awkward...can't dance or move gracefully. She has no friends...the only friend she had before moving to Forks was her mother...she considered her mother her best friend. She never dated...boys were never interested in her. THEN Bella moves to Forks and everyone seems to take notice of her. Bella doesn't like this...she prefers to be forgotten and in the background. Guys openly react to her...but she doesn't know how to react back to them. She finally meets a guy that she feels that she can connect with...and the danged guy happens to be a vampire. Anyway, these are the reasons why Bella acts the way she does. She never had friends or boyfriends...or even went out with anyone before she moved to Forks.
