User blog:Kirby Phelps (PK)/Jacob and Bella's Epic Kiss

I'm talking the second kiss, not that failed attempt.

Now, the Jacob and Bella kiss is personally my favorite moment in the series. How can anyone deny that the kiss was powerful? They kiss and BOOM, Bella realizes that she's been in love with Jacob all this time. However, a lot of people don't like the kiss, particularly Edward fans. People give Jacob a lot of grief for pretty much blackmailing Bella into the kiss. I assume Jacob was thinking that it was his last chance though it probably wouldn't work. But he was pleasantly surprised that it did. I assume Bella was thinking that if she gave him what he wanted, he would stay. But it turns out it's what she wanted too. That's why the kiss started out pretty tense, Jacob upset that it wasn't working and Bella hesitant about whether she should do this. But during the second half they weren't tense at all, they were just enjoying the moment. So were they both scheming on this kiss or was it all Jacob's fault?

What do you think about the kiss? Was it a sweet moment or all strategy? Should Jacob have done it or no? And please, no blatant Jacob haters. I want some serious answers on how you feel?

It's funny actually. All of Jacob's methods before were just him being honest with Bella and letting his feelings be known, but all those failed. Yet when his method involves lying, it works like a charm. This was basically Jacob's first time at lying and manipulating, while Edward does it all the time to Bella and we all know how they ended up. Happily Ever After. So what's Meyer trying to say, that lying and manipulating is the key to winning one's heart?
