Talk:Bella Swan and Jacob Black/@comment-142.162.211.29-20141101211005/@comment-7600752-20150223003258

I'm not on either team. But, in some ways I do believe Bella might have been better off with Jacob. There are parts in the books where she DOES finally admit to being in love with Jacob... she just loved Edward more. But, Jacob could have lived a 'human' life with Bella - she could have stayed in her parent's lives... her friends' lives. BUT, they just aren't important enough for Bella to remain human. Their were drawbacks to remaining human... the same drawbacks that we all (as humans) endure. We eventually get old and die. Now that Bella's a vampire, she doesn't have to deal with that any more. Like Edward said, after a few decades everyone you knew when you were human will be dead. BUT, I have No doubt that Jacob would have eventually made Bella quite happy. She was already beginning to thaw before Alice came back. Also, Jacob quit being Bella's friend after he first changed... so that did put a dampener on their relationship. But once all the vampires cleared out of town... the wolves would have stopped shifting... Jacob and Bella could then lead a rather ordinary life. Except for the fact that Edward would probably be sneaking around from time to time to check up on Bella. He warned that he would do that.
