He is over 100 years old.... while Jake is "fun" he too is just a teenager and would not/ could not offer the devotion that edward is capable of. I would love to seem them together.... but i think she will end up with not marrying anyone. I wish i had someone adore me like Edward. She fell in love with edward... her first real love. Jake just happen to be there.... it could have been anyone. They were friends... and he was there... if anything he is a rebound relationship... and was able to secure her trust "physically" because he knew her.

I just don't see Edward's appeal. She and Jacob had fun together, he made her laugh, they were evenly matched. Edward was just dreary. I don't care how much he sparkles in the sunlight. The way she kept harping on how she would simply DIE if she weren't with Edward plus that whole agreeing to marry him just so she could have sex with him thing were totally irresponsible of Meyer. They're both extremely dangerous lessons to be teaching young women. But, yeah, I'll read the next one too. I had the exact same reaction.
