Bella, You Should Choose...

This is the tale of Edward versus Jacob. While they both have very different pros and cons, the arguments for both sides are very strong. Some people have taken extreme sides on this issue, hence the terms "Team Edward" and "Team Jacob", and they are sworn enemies.

So let's talk a little bit about Edward. Some good characteristics of Edward are:

  • He's protective
  • He's immortal
  • He's stunningly beautiful
  • He sparkles 
  • He's super strong and super fast
Being protective can be a comforting feeling; however it can spill over into being controlling, and nobody likes a controlling boyfriend. He's immortal, meaning Bella and Edward can be together forever. Him being stunningly beautiful doesn't hurt either. Ha ha, I put this one down just for laughs; he sparkles. Super strength and speed are important reflexes to have just in case Bella puts herself in immediate danger (which she often does).

Now let's compare Jacob. Some characteristics are:
  • He's loyal. (no pun intended)
  • He's equally gorgeous.
  • He is extra warm
When Edward leaves Bella, Jacob is like her rebound man; he was there for her in her time of need. Also I don't think anyone can argue about Jacobs muscle definition. Lastly, he can keep Bella warm on camping trips in the freezing cold.

So of course for Bella, this should be a very tough decision. On the contrary to what Stephenie has defined in the books, I believe Bella should have chosen Jacob because he has never betrayed her in the way that Edward has.
