Talk:Rosalie Hale/@comment-31574504-20170628041743

This article is really judgemental and nasty to this poor girl at times. Yeah I realize she isn't a real person, she's a fictional character, but I don't care. The actress's assessment of Rosalie seems more fitting: that she just wanted an average family life. Sure she might have enjoyed her beauty a bit, but for Edward to (according to this article) dismiss her as "shallow and self-absorbed" after the trauma she'd just been through? I don't think she's the one being "shallow and self-absorbed" there. And the mirror obsession is probably an attempt on Rose's part to become comfortable with her vampiric form while longing for her human one back.

I know Rosalie isn't a real person. But she's a classic example of how chararcters who really ARE sympathetic as hell in this series are treated like bad guys, for not bowing down and kissing Edward and Bella's sparkly toes.
