Talk:Bella Swan and Jacob Black/@comment-24927180-20140913155216/@comment-24927180-20140914045011

I didn't mean that Edward wanted her to change. I meant her wanting to change herself. There was no need for to change herself with Jacob. She was perfect the way she was to him, and it was the same with Edward, but with Edward, even if he didn't want to admit it, Bella was always going to be changed.

It didn't matter if it was eighteen or thirty, Bella would have become a vampire at some point, or she would have been killed, and Edward wasn't going to let her die if he could prevent it. Alice says this a lot in the story. So, I think it's great that Edward wanted to her to stay human, but at the end of the day she would have become a vampire at some point, even if Edward had swore not to turn her, Alice would have, or Carlisle, so Bella's mortal life was done when she first met Edward.

I don't know, I just always felt there was something great between her and Jacob that didn't exist between her and Edward until she became a vampire, and changed everything she was for him.

On a different note, I wish the movie had kept the scenes of Bella thinking about a future with Jacob. That was my favorite part of the book, and I was sad to not see it included.
