Verified answer

Personally, I'd choose Jacob because Edward's big mistake is overreaction. It's in his nature to be too extreme. He's a very all-or-nothing kind of person, and it makes him unreasonable. In the beginning of Eclipse, he's too overprotective. When he sees the error of his ways, he goes too far in the other direction. He could have chosen a middle ground—maybe admitted to his jealousy and asked Bella to choose him, rather than watching her get in deeper with Jacob. Of course, he has other issues that make forcing this issue problematic. What if Jacob is better for her? What if Bella could have a more complete life with him? Should Edward really insist that Bella give everything up for vampire life? Or would it be better to let her make a fully informed choice? Can you see his dilemma? Part of Edward wants Bella to choose Jacob.

Jacob doesn't have a tragic flaw. He has one goal and one hope. His goal is to save Bella's life. His hope is that he'll win her heart in the process. He fails at both. But that doesn't mean he regrets trying. If he could do it over again, he'd do the same thing. Jacob couldn't live with himself if he didn't give saving Bella his best effort—he knows it's going to hurt when he loses, but he knows it would hurt worse if he didn't try. Does he do everything right? Heck, no! But he's sixteen and he's making it up as he goes along. Those who are upset by some of his tactics should consider his youth and the fact that he is, after all, right. Bella is in love with him. (In the end, it's truly healthier for her to be aware of this as she goes forward with unalterable decisions.) Also, I like Jacob because he doesn't baby Bella like Edward does. Jacob knows that Bella is capable of handling dangerous situations. I wouldn't want my boyfriend treating me like a helpless kid would you?

Oh I almost forgot. There is a downside to choosing Jacob. If Bella chose Jacob instead of Edward, she would always have to worry about Jacob imprinting later on. What if he did imprint on someone else? Even though Jacob said that if he did imprint he wouldn't leave Bella, if he did end up imprinting, he would have no choice but to do just that: leave Bella. It happened to Sam. What makes you think that Jacob's situation would be different? Despite this, I still think that Jacob is the best choice for Bella.

Edward

Edward

Edward.

I can't choose between the two. I agree, though, Jacob did treat Bella horribly when he turned into a werewolf. But what I like is that he tried super hard to keep her safe and to keep his promise. I think he's a good big brother. But I love Edward, too. He's so awesome. :)

I think Bella should love Edward. Jacob is weird, but Edward is like a hero in my mind.

uhmm.. definetly edward!!!! and i would definetly rather have edward turn me into a vampire!!! jacob is nice in twilight and part of new moon but he does get annoying when he first turns a werewolf. he gets nicer in breaking dawn at the end of the middle and the end!! i love edward waaay more tho!!
