User blog comment:Kirby Phelps (PK)/Could Breaking Dawn Ruin Jacob's Image?/@comment-2072316-20110501194851

Unfortunately what Pudding said is true; there are fans who can erase the imprinting from their mind completely, just like some others can forget about Bella and or replace her with their wanted character or themselves. About Jacob not being the same after imprinting: no character can come out of a story or event unchanged, even in the slightest. I try not to get emotionally attached to their respective qualities, beliefs, reasoning (though I do love parts of Jacob's reasoning), attitudes, etc. It's much less disappointing at the end of the story/event. Of course I didn't know that before Twilight, so I can completely identify with your perspective on Jacob. Finally, fans that simply like "Jacob" because he takes his shirt off a couple of times and has a bad ass attitude are, couldn't have called them better, "pseudo-fans". And who wouldn't know you? We've all been gone from around here from time to time;)
