Rosie Benson (rosiebenson) Well The Twilight series are my favourite books of all time but I was thinking about the time period of Edward and Bella's relationship:


Edward and Bella started dating around end of March,
Broke up September. Next year- End of March get back together again, Bella is not very committed to him as she kisses Jacob several times and quite honestly prefers spending more time with Jacob. However Bella and Edward marry in August. It just seems like Edward and Bella were only together for a few months and that's not even discluding the time whilst Bella was "cheating" on Edward. It would seem a slightly pathetic relationship to someone who hadn't read the books.

It's all just getting into the perspective of Twilight-haters and I don't believe for a second that. In my opinion the relationships within the books are...desirable?. Although, I would like to know your views on the matter.

I think you have your timelines mixed up. You make it sound as if she was with Edward one minute, and as soon as he left, she shacked up with Jacob, and then went back to Edward. When in fact this happened over a long period. Do you recall the blank pages in New Moon? Bella was catatonic for months after Edward left. She only met up with Jacob almost 5 or 6 months later. And if you do remember correctly, she never actually kissed Jake in New Moon. Remember? They were close in the kitchen, and Bella was still comparing Jacob to Paris, when the phone rang. Stopping them before anything could happen.

The never actually kissed until Eclipse, which was almost a full year even after that. To which point, she never voluntarily did so. Even the second kiss, was for his life, and she went into that with great trepidation. I agree she fell for Jacob and it meant more to her than it should a girl with a boyfriend, but I would never call Bella a cheater.

Vivi | 2543 comments how could bella cheat on edward, if edward was the one that broke up with her.
Jacob kissed bella twice(i believe)not over and over again. Edward and Bella got married after knowing each other for about a year and a half, which isn't long enough to get to know each other in my opinion but it's not short either.

Rosie Benson (rosiebenson) I think I have to futhur explain, it's not my view on it at all. It was basically what several of my friends thought about Twilights series because I agree with Melz completely. Also I think when they said about Bella cheating on Edward was the few months after they got back together.

Rosie Benson (rosiebenson) "because I agree with Melz completely."

Cool. But now, as you can see, those views are on the foundation of a timeline that is incorrect. However, if they have other reasons, I think I could understand. They just have to be able to back them up. ;)

Rosie Benson (rosiebenson) Well they're my friends, I wasn't exactly going to tell them that their opinions were complete crap, although,I did want to. :) Sometimes I wish the dang phone had never rang.


message 12: by [deleted user] (new)

It's cool, friends don't need to hear that all the time. Sometimes I wish that, too. :)

Lauren (wolfgirl637) | 152 comments I see Edward and Bella's relationship as the never ending story. Kind of like a fairytale except a lot less perfect.

Mellady77 Stibich | 1149 comments Real-life timelines are sometimes messed up too so they are not all that unbelievable! I met my ex in June, I moved in with him in September, He asked me to marry him in October, I met his family in November, and we were married in March.

Now, I didn't say it was the right way to do things, but sometimes, relationships just move fast.


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

First love. You fall hard. And you fall fast.

You have to have a strong heart. So make sure to visit your cardiologist before jumping into any relationship.

Fuuny!!!!!! but seriously you have to!!!!


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

*Nods Professionally* Yes, I know what I am talking about. People come in with broken hearts all the time.

Ammie (footballwrestlingrock) | 92 comments Big time. Even though my sis is like really mature and stuff, she's had her fare share of broken heart times. But i think every one has to go through that to be mature and grow up of that kid phase.


message 26: by M (new)

M (readergirl67) Really it's Jake's fault Bella kissed Jacob at all! So that doesn't count as cheating cause Edward wasn't mad at Bells.


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

It was Jake's fault that Bella kissed him the first time, but Jacob wasn't fully responsible the second kiss. And cheating is still technically cheating, whether the person cheated on gets upset or not...Not that I think Bella cheated, I'm just responding to your reasoning.
