Talk:Bella Swan and Jacob Black/@comment-66.138.59.115-20130417045514

People have trouble picturing Jacob and Bella together as a couple. I think it's easier to imagine them together in the book versions. Bella does indeed fall in love with Jacob, unfortunaely for Jaoob, this love pales in comparison to her love for Edward. Anyone who's read the books know that there is a strong bond between Jake and Bella. I believe the reason so many fans can't picture a romance between Jake & Bella is partly because of the movies. While Edward and Bella had a strong presence onscreen, there just wasn't enough electricity onscreen between Jake and Bella. I think that this was due to Kristen seeing Taylor as only a friend, their real-life relationship bled onto the screen. There was just no sparks. Kristen and Rob did have the chemistry natrually and sparks were flying offscreen whenever they were together. But, if going by the books, if Edward had never returned, Bella would have ended up with her second love, Jaccob. Bella would always have a part of her heart that was broken beyound repair. But Jacob would have made the pain manageable enough for her to have a life with him.
