Am I Alone ?

yeah i was like that. hmmm will be a vamp but no marriage?! haha. but the way her mom always talked about it i guess i can see the point. if to be a vamp i had to marry him i'd so do it. but in everyday life.. i don't know if i'd be so fast to marry again...take my time..haha. but if she married him then..then we wouldn't have breaking dawn..haha

I was reading it earlier & I was like "What is wrong with you Bella, Just jump on him & say yes"

Her reactions to alot of things annoy me, Like her 18th birthday, I know she didn't wanna be older then Edward but geez she was pissy haha. And she won't let Edward buy her anything. Yes a car is alot but dinner at a nice place WHATS WRONG WITH THIS CHICK haha.. I love her though.. Shes just a nut.

if was very frustrated to not want to jump into the book and be like"look kid---you want to be a vampire for the rest of your "life", just so you can be with the one you love for the rest of eternity, and your afraid to to get married" but at least she smartened up........

Its the whole irrational girl thing!!!

I do it all the time! lol!! Makes no sense to anyone else but me at the time then when I think about I think Bah! Stupid girl!!!

I figure thats what Bella is doing!

I just wanted to shake some sense into her !
I kinda understood I suppose but it infuriated me that she didnt just jump on him scraming YES, YES, YES. I would of

So would I! lol

I am just about finished this book (again) and I still love it the most. But This is when I wanted to drop kick Jacob in is man goods, Still love Jake though.

I would jump on him anytime haha!

I couldn't understand her either at first... then as I read on.. realizing it was just another way to point out the distance in the generations between them.. how Edward was "that boy" who would ask for her hand... I thought it was just so sweet and it defined Edward all the more. But my first reaction was "Is this girl crazy?" And I think I actually said it outloud! My husband gave me a many strange looks while I read this book..I kept talking out...lol

Ok I know I am late to this topic but I definitely agree.....she is willing to be immortal and live with him forever but not marry him? Then too I was frustrated with Bella throughout it though. I think she led Jacob on at times and then even confused Edward. She spent all of New Moon crying over Edward being gone but when he came back she wanted to spend time with Jacob and I did feel for Jacob in those parts. It was confusing for him and edward and totally mixed signals. Then when she was hesitant to marry Edward plus she kissed Jacob I just shook my head. I know she wanted Jacob to stay but he didnt anyways and in the end all she did was kiss him and confuse him and Edward even more. I think Jacob acted the way he did at times because he thought she really did want him and Edward had some hold on her so for that I did want to pat Jacob on the back sympathetically because in Eclipse Bella was all over the place!

[i]I know!
I would be like
"Oh yes Edward! We'll get married tomorrow!
Lol

Yea her reasoning for not wanting to marry him didnt make sense when you really think about her situation.

Bella is one of those characters that the more you read the books and really get to analyze them you start to get annoyed by some things she does. Its like you already know what has happened so you can focus on the smaller details and yea some things she does just drives me crazy.

She's a lil too clumsy for me...and shes not that bright..but hey..it is just a story

LMAO Team Vampire....I like you. I totally agree her clumsiness was to the extreme and her decision making skills at times made you say....are you serious right now?

Yes that did bother me, she was basically making her mom's failed marriage to Charlie out to have branded hers which I did find annoying and so did my best friend. The same way Edward didn't have enough faith in himself to believe in his control when she first wanted to have sex, she didn't have enough faith to believe that her destiny was different than Renee's. Which contradicts herself completely. She broke down and had an anxiety attack when Edward left her, is unable to live without him and broke her best friend's heart to give all of hers to him.

She claims in the first book "I dream about being with you forever", is not afraid of giving up her life literally to become a vampire for him,and yet was afraid to marry him? It makes no sense to me at all that she loved him enough to do anything for him including die except what made the most sense.

While it may be true that divorce is more common in today's world than successful marriages, and is a large commitment, Bella has already made and even larger commitment planning to become a vampire.

I understand why she doesn't jump to it...like if we really think about it, if i fell in love with someone that sweet...i wouldnt jump to it. Even if i knew that i would spend the rest of my life with him...but then again, its edward...and he's awesome. haha. so yah ever time i read eclipse i yell at bella about how she doesn't jump to the gun

Plus she already has jumped into it in Twilight. She fell irrevocably in love with him....shouldnt that mean marriage isnt something to freak out about? I think its just that in Twilight she totally defied everything for her love and then in New Moon her heart got broken but she spent the whole time yearning for him then she gets him back and is like.....no marriage....what!

Actually clover, the fact that she fell head over heels for him is not the part that makes little sense vs. that she claimed wanting to be with him forever, and was already willing to make the even larger commitment of dying for him to become a vampire.

It does however make sense that she could be worried about loosing him again after he just took off with little warning once before. She even had a hard time believing she had actually gotten him back and was convinced she was in a dream. I can understand that concern.
