I don't understand how there is even a discussion about this. The answer is obvious. Alex is mean and he had his chance. Julian doesn't judge Lena for her past and present actions, like Alex does. I know Alex came first and he was Lena's first love blah, blah, blah, but what about Coral? That was just cruel of Alex to do that to Lena. Also, Lena thought Alex was dead, so who is he to judge her when he magically reappears and finds that Lena has tried to move on with Julian. If he really loved her, he would step back and let her decide.

From Pandemonium to the end of Requiem I was rooting for Julian. Totally. I mean "I don't love you. I never loved you. It was all a lie." REALLY, ALEX? And Julian was so naïve and sweet and trusting and he was so good to Lena, even when she was confused. And then I read the short story "Alex"...and I completely forgave him for blowing up that one time. And also for the whole Coral thing because, really, what he was doing with Coral was the same as what Lena was doing with Julian. They were just trying to be happy without each other.

Because you have to read ALL of Requiem before saying that
Then come back to comment

Even though you were rooting for Julian, I forgive you since you now love Alex
And you ALWAYS need my permission to survive
Or else...

I was kinda bummed out at the ending

I'm excited for you to read all of it

Right, but when he came back he was so bad at Lena because she moved on, when that's what he himself had told her to do it.

yah, but boys are like that
He didn't know how to express his feelings, and he had nobody else to talk to that's close to him (other than Lena, but that's out for choices)
Have you finished Requiem?

I know, and I do like Alex, but Julian will always be my fave.
Yes, I have, why?
Julian. I have read all three books and the short story about Alex. I get why people like Alex because he did love Lena and give up everything for her. But at the same time no matter how noble his sacrifices were they still changed him and the new Alex is not the one Lena fell in love with. I think in the long run Lena would be better off with Julian. Just my opinion though...

Just wondering

kind of
But ruthless means having no pity or compassion for others, so he is not ruthlessBut he is amazing :)
Why does there ALWAYS have to be a love triangle?? I think she'll pick Julian though. Don't ask why! It's only an instinct, plus I don't know which guy I prefer most as they both have strong characters.

Love triangles are lame
Alex is super hot and awesome, but Julian is hot and so inocent like a puppy you know? im torn i dont know wich one.
Citlalli wrote: "Alex is super hot and awesome, but Julian is hot and so inocent like a puppy you know? im torn i dont know wich one." go on you know, if you look in to your heart, it would beat out Alex, Alex, Alex
I was so annoyed and yet so happy by the fact that I could not pick one of them! Both of them were so different yet I loved them both so much. I wish I were in Lena's shoes, that's for sure, but I don't envy her decision!
Citlalli wrote: "Alex is super hot and awesome, but Julian is hot and so inocent like a puppy you know? im torn i dont know wich one."Puppies are amazing
But its not like you're gonna marry one
Lena has to get a real guy
Not a puppy
So Alex

Julian all the way babe. I mean the way Alex treated her at the end of Pandemonium and the beginning of Requiem, made me want to strangle him.

But I guess he was pretty shocked at the end of pandemonium watching the love of his life with another man...
Julian all the way babe. Alex's reaction killed me at the end. But, it must be hard seeing the love of you're life with another man.

What were you expecting? Everyone thought he was dead I mean if you haven't read requiem he wouldn't know how he escaped.. So what was she suppose to do? She's suppose to move on

Lena is the first gir..."I get what you're saying but Alex was born in the wilds. He lived in the wilds. And well Julian is just getting the hang of it. He was literally born in the middle of it. Seriously, his dad was one of the people who thought Love as we know it was dangerous. I agree Julian doesn't know what he's doing, but he killed someone for her, and for him... that was a big deal. Thats just my opinion (: Can't wait to read requiem.!
Megan wrote: "Julian, definitely. First love doesnt mean best love, and once you have moved on from the past and have accepted the loss of someone you loved (I feel like although Lena still missed Alex, she had ..."I agree with every single word. Thats exactly how I feel. First love doesn't always mean best. Julian all the way. He's knew to Love. I mean he can't just wake up one day taking a bullet like alex did for lena. Alex was born into the wilds. Julian seems nice and gentleman like. I can't believe we're getting hyped up over fictional characters. But fudge it.
i love julian but also at the end when alex was there i couldn't help but feel sorry for him and think it was a bit unfair since he sacrificed himself for lena. but Julian and lena have a really sweet relationship and i do love him but i have to say alex he was first and also i think deep down that's who i am rooting for to be with lena. but if it was who's your favorite character alex or julian i am stuck i love them both i just hope they both have a fair ending.
