Reread "Eclipse" when Bella realizes that she's in love with Jacob. But the love she feels for Edward is much stronger. In a "natural" world, where there's no vampires, no Edward, Bella would have fallen happily in love with Jacob because he is her soul-mate in a natural world. This is why she has such intense feelings for Jacob. However, Bella lives in a supernatural world, where Edward is her supernatural soul-mate. Once Bella meets her supernatural soul-mate (Edward) she finds it impossible to survive without him. But you can see why Bella was so drawn to Jacob when Edward left in New Moon. Jacob is her soul-mate to a lesser degree than Edward. In Eclipse, Bella visualizes two realities, one with Jacob and one with Edward. Although she saw that with Jacob, she'd have a normal human life with children, she was bound to Edward and chose him.
