Team Jacob: Top 10 Reasons Why The Twilight Series' Jacob Would Make a Better Boyfriend Than Edward

Posted at 5:00 AM Aug 01, 2008

By Megan Irwin

Stephenie Meyers' much-anticipated (if you're like me and have the literary proclivities of a 14-year-old girl) fourth book in her vampire romance series Twilight comes out at midnight.

If you haven't heard of Stephenie and the Twilight cast of characters, you've probably been pretty spaced out. You certainly haven't been reading Entertainment Weekly or Time Magazine. For the uninitiated, here's a primer on the woman now dubbed "The Next J.K Rowling."

If you HAVE been keeping up with your completely addicting, frustratingly chaste young-adult vampire fiction, you know that this latest installment, Breaking Dawn, will answer some pretty important questions. Like, will Bella give up her immortal soul to be able to kiss her boyfriend?

(And yeah, we know that sounds pretty anti-feminist and lame, but Meyer actually has a pretty good defense -– Bella only looks weak because Edward is perfect –- and honestly, the problem of a weak female protagonist is a topic for another day.)

And if you're a real fan, you probably have pretty strong opinions about the whole Jacob-Bella-Edward love triangle.

So do I.

I'm totally on Team Jacob.

I realize this is an unpopular opinion. Both of my editors responded to this statement with a "whaaaaa?"

But, I stand by my preference. Honestly, Edward bores me, and Jacob is a total babe. Maybe it's good that Bella and her fan girls prefer Edward. Leaves more Jacobs out there for me.

If you're in the small minority of readers who agree with me -– and since one fan once told Meyers she wished Jacob would die, I'm guessing there aren't many of you -– here are some talking points to argue while you're waiting in line tonight:

Top 10 Reasons Why Jacob Would Make a Better Boyfriend Than Edward

10. Edward is perfect. He's smarter than Bella. He's better looking than Bella. He never makes a mistake. Maybe some girls are into perfection but personally, I find it boring. Would you really want to spend the rest of your life in the shadow of someone else's perfection? It would drive me crazy never to win an argument, and even crazier to never feel prettier than my boyfriend.

9. Edward drives a Volvo. A Volvo. I'm sorry, but I don't care what year or model it is, a Volvo is still a reliable family vehicle for soccer moms. Jacob's motorcycle that he built himself is so much hotter. Also, when your car breaks down, Jacob can fix it. Edward would probably just want to buy you a new one -– so unimaginative.

8. Edward is no fun. Seriously, when do he and Bella laugh? Um, that's right never. They're too busy living the Greatest Love Story Ever Told to have any fun. Having been in, and somehow escaped alive from, a few Love Stories in my time, I know for sure that a boyfriend who doesn't make you laugh is pointless. Jacob on the other hand, knows how to have a good time. I bet he knows the importance of a good tickle fight, and I bet he'd be a lot of fun to drink with at the beach.

7. Oh yeah, Jacob never abandoned anyone in the woods for "her own good." How many times have you heard that line? Right. And how many times has it actually done you any good? Right. (And Edward lovers, don't yap about how he came back -– if this were real life, Bella would be so salty about the abandonment that they'd definitely have issues down the road.)

6. Jacob is warm, whereas sleeping next to Edward is sort of like sleeping next to a block of ice. I live in the Northwest –- I know the crappy weather Bella's dealing with in Forks. I know how important a warm body can be.

5. You don't have to give up your immortal soul and abandon your family to date Jacob. (Which means you're the type of self-actualized individual who realizes that love is not the same as infatuation and no man, no mater how dreamy is worth selling your soul for -– I wish I'd had a bossy blogger to tell me that at 17.)

4. Jacob doesn't have a crazed bunch of vampires chasing him around trying to kill you. I know he has that friend who maimed his wife, but Jacob hasn't done that. Yet, I think that Bella's life has been in mortal danger in every single book thanks to that dang Edward.

3. Hey, it turns out I'm NOT alone. My friend Lilia totally agrees, Jacob all the way. She has this to contribute: "He's got a pack of hot beasts for all your friends to date." So true! With Edward you'd be doomed to a life of solitude/trying to compete with his annoying "sisters." Pass!

2. "When he turns into a beast his clothes explode off, and we all want that," she adds. Yes. Yes we do. Which brings me to…

1. With Jacob, you can actually get laid. OK, so Stephenie told me once she would never write a sex scene, and given her demographic, that's probably a good thing. But come on. Edward can't even kiss his girlfriend without wanting to kill her.

I don't know how people read these books...they're written at a 12 year old level and padded with so many adjectives it hurts your brain @_@ It's an insult to J.K. (and I'm not a huge fan of her work, but I respect her writing ability) to compare the two...

Janet said:

Thank god for this post! I have always been Team Jacob for exactly the same reasons you mention. It's so nice to know that someone out there feels the same way I do, especially when all of my Twilight friends think I'm crazy.

kat said:

okay, good points, but remember: love conquers all...

my friend tiffany (who got me addicted to the books by giving me twilight as a christmas present) is totally team jacob...

i, however, am team edward... i told her if jacob won her, we were totally going to rumble.

please note: tiff is so addicted to these books, she named her baby isabella.

Pamela said:

I thought I was 100% Team Edward, then I took the Facebook quiz, which told me I am 100% Team Jacob. Is it possible to be on both teams?

lex said:

wow... i never thought of it that way... now im on the fence. not losing ur soul 2 get laid sounds like a good point. and besides... they're both exceptionally hot!!!! hmmmmmmmmm....... i USED 2 be an Edward fan.
o... and i think that they have deffinatly have the WRONG edward for the movie!!!!!!!

twilightgirl13 said:

U ppl r crazy. yes jacob is semi-human and wat ever. but ur "theories" have problems. first of all bella would not feel ugly. because she could b changed and she would b just as pretty. then not ALL his friends r hot or avalible for that matter. they will imprint on who they want to, and how do u no they r hot anyway. Last, why can't u just be quiet and let ppl like wat they like. Not try to change their opinions. gosh leave ppl alone for goodness sakes. love is wat it is. she loves edward with her whole heart and SOUL. she makes her own choices. seriously. leave ppl to their own thoughts. we all like bella. b like her. she is safe inside her OWN mind.

Mallory said:

I'm totally Team Edward. Have you've even read the 4th book????!!!! Jacob isn't for Bella. He never imprinted on her. She isn't his soul mate. It's a crush. Nothing more. Bella loves him like family. Edward and Bella laugh come on. Give me a break. Jacob is so freaking pushy and arrogant. Don't get me wrong I love Jacob too BUT he isn't meant for Bella. Remember Bella is accident prone. Things would eventually come to harm her even if she was with Jacob. If it weren't for Edward in Twilight with the van almost smashing her she wouldn't even be alive. I disagree with this 10 reasons thing 100%. Read Breaking Dawn and you'll see how it's meant to be. TEAM EDWARD!!!

Fatima said:

ok so why would you write thihs? Im assuming you have read Breaking Dawn and if you haven't I STRONGLY advise you to becaues I hate to break it to you honey but Jacob gets a life eventually and GETS OVER HIS OBESSESION FOR BELLA! Please know all the facts before you make some ignorant list that proves nothing and is completely false. It just makes Edward more irrisistable because BELLA CHOSE HIM! Get over it.

Sincerely,

A Die-Hard True
Team Edard Fan!

Fatima said:

sorry I got kinda carried away there I meant to write
Sincerely,

A Die-Hard True
Team Edward Fan!

I forgot the "w" silly me
:(

Taylor said:

Finally! In my whole group of friends who have read the book, every single one of them is all for Bella to be with Edward. I don't mean that I'm not happy with the outcome of Breaking Dawn, but I've been for Jacob since day one. I guess it's beceause of the fact that when Edward left her for "her own good", he was there to pick up the pieces and put Bella back together, sure he had alterior motives, but Bella wouldn't have to change herself at all to be with him. I mean, I guess it would be akward for Bella, since she thinks of him as just her best friend. My best friend is a guy, and, yeah no, that would never happen, it would just never happen, but I just relly think that it would have worked out for Bella and Jacob if Alice had never come back. I'm not knocking on Alice, or anything, but in Jacob's case, it was really bad timing. I still loved Breaking Dawn, and it's still one of my favorite books, so I'm not gong to spoil it for anyone who's not done with it yet, but I am extremely happy with the entire outcom of the book, but I wish that there was some alternate ending, or something like that.

Taylor said:

Post Script: I totally agree with the statement that Jacob would be fun to drink with in the beach. I'm not of drinking age yet, but the possibility is still there. I just think that he would be a hilarious person to hang out with.

Taylor said:

whoops, I forgot the e in outcome.

Kati said:

There is a little problem with your theory.
Bella loves Edward.
True love should never be broken up because another option is simpler.

Jessica said:

Yes, this is all true, but think about how Jacob will imprint on another girl. How would Bella feel when she chose Jacob and then he goes off and has a Soul-Mate that is not her. Eeek, I can't read most of the comments on here because Breaking Dawn Spoilers.

Cathy said:

YESSSS i am totally on team Jacob..
I read BD , and i am actually happy for Bella
*applauds* Good For her ,,COngrats
I have always thought Bella and Edward deserve each other, I actually always wanted them together and I do like edward , i truly do but i find Jacob much hotter and i agree to all of your points.

blearyeyedmesgirl said:

I'm 'Team Bella-made-her-choice-and-she-chose-Edward.' But I think Jacob makes a great best friend.

And, side note - Rob is perfect as Edward in the movie! Absolutely perfect...

katie said:

i so agree with you you are so right

Chrissy said:

This may all be true, Jacob may have all these "suppose" wonderful qualities but Bella isn't in love with him so I don't see the point in arguing who would be the better boyfriend ,if Edward is the one that Bella loves. He is never going to be her boyfriend, he might be better but he's not who she wants!This as Edward would say is a moot point!:)

Cae said:

Cool. Sigh. I think I'm half and half. Can I be on both teams? :D

AJ~~ said:

You are so lucky, you probably know whats happened by now. I really need to know who wins! unfortunately the book isn't available in my country yet :(. Team Edward or Team Jacob (no thats not an invitation for spoilers). I am team Edward all the way, I mean this is Edward were talking about but i don't hate jacob...how can i hate someone who according to the facebook quiz is me?

Anyway about no. 7, this isn't real life, if it were Edward wouldnt exist, and jacob wouldnt be a werewolf.

Christy said:

I totally agree with you at first i was team edward but then as I kept reading the books he got some what on my nerves and went into Team Jacob.

Michelle said:

Omg, do you feel stupid now that you've read Breaking Dawn? All your ridiculous points are out the window. Ahahahaha. Edward is the warm one now. He's Bella's equal in every way now. She loves HIM - Hello!! And guess what, bb, they do it ALL NIGHT LONG. Jacob, on the other hand, is now a pedo who obsesses now over Bella's BABY, and will want to do said baby in seven years. Oh yeah, AWEEEEESOME boyfriend potential. LOLOLOLOL. You all love a pedo!! Ahahahahahhahahahahahahaa!!!!!

Rida said:

Some of the points are reasonably valid
but then again, everyone has diffrent tastes
Im a team Edward kind of person, but I just thought
it might be adequete to consider imprinting.
Lets look at Sam and Leah, she was so hurt when
he 'had' to leave for Emily. There was a potential
with that for Bella if she chose Jacob.
Just thought I'd add that fact for consideration.
Good article, though. :)

Blondie said:

Yea ok i totally get your point, i am totally obsessed with these books and i love her writing style! if i was Bella and i Had to chose i would probably have to think about it long and hard unlike her who makes dictions off the top of her head... anyway i might pick Edward or Jacob.. i never really thought about it that hard but come on youy know we ALL want two amazingly hot guys who are in love with us.. dont we? well i do.

Rida said:

Adding to the imprinting comment,
If Bella were to chose Jacob over Edward
whom, she absolutely is in love with then
Jacob would have left eventually - for her daughter?
thats kinda sick. Though he doesnt love her in that
sense yet, it's still something to consider.
Bella loves Jacob, and Jacob loves her daughter.
Jacob cant really offer a long term relationship
he was bound to leave.
Edward can offer a lifetime. :\
:)

Lil said:

I'm team Seth Clearwater... Hahah! That kid grows on me... Jacob and Edward both have good and bad points and those points are usually exaggerated by fans. I loved Edward from day one, never really cared for Jacob. In New Moon, Jacob was the cool badass kid and I liked Jacob since then. One I knew is I hate Bella for getting their attentions. Though I'm all for Edward+Bella because I seem to see Jacob as Bella's brother and for some reason it just could never reach an end. Its true somehow you can love two people at once and when you choose, you choose the person who you loved more. For instance, why can't you forget your first love when you already have a husband??? Neh? SM did the "I am split between two guys" thing really well, exploring in depth and outer deepness.

Johna said:

OMG! This is an amazing article! The 10 points are so true! Thank you, thank you so much for writing something that is the honest truth! You rock!

EDWARD CULLEN ROX said:

**SPOILER**

You have all forgotten one very, very, important factor, team jacob fans. JACOB IMPRINTED ON BELLA'S DAUGHTER, RENESMEE!!

Stretch said:

I TOTALLY agree with you. I know our ship was doomed to sink from the beginning, but regardless Jacob was always better for Bella. Number 8 is a point that many Edward fans seem to miss, but is too busy being "dazzled" to enjoy almost anything with Edward. Jacob makes her laugh, and trust me, that's more important in a relationship than you can possibly imagine.

bitterchocolat said:

Totally get where you're coming from. :)

Bella needs someone who's going to make her feel good about herself and love her as a human can love her. Laughter and touching/physical contact is a big part of a relationship. Jacob can give both. (I'm not just talking about sex when I say touching. I'm talking hugging, cuddling, etc.)

Edward... can't.

(yes, I have read Breaking Dawn. So I know what happens, but I still say Jacob.)

Johna said:

Oh and don't pay attention to the 12yr old Edward fans, they obviously missed the point of your article. Rock on, rock on!

juila said:

You are NOT alone...nonono, there is a lot of Team Jacob out there...one of them is me!!! Super glad for the article!! Thanks so much!!

And yeah...(laugh so hard, nearly can't type) Jacob, *is* a total babe!!!

Julia said:

Here's the thing that I can't wrap my head around. Bella says often that Jacob is her home or that she feels homesickness for him...at least that's how Stephanie Meyer writes them out to be..
Bella and Edward..addiction
Bella and Jacob: Sun, Air, Home..
That's just Fail right there...
I know, I know, Love doesn't make any sense...but...seriously?
And please, for all the people that keeps saying that Bella doesn't love Jacob in 'that' way and only as family...READ Eclipse and don't just flip over...

tiggy said:

i love how all the Team Edward people are asking if you've read Breaking Dawn. hello? reading skills are pretty imperative here, people. especially on the internet where that's ALL we can do. notice the date that Megan wrote this. are you with us now? okay. good.

as for the article itself, i started out as Team Edward. but by the time Eclipse rolled around and he was disabling Bella's car and having Alice kidnap her "for her own good", i was pretty fed up. i attempted to stay Switzerland and "not be affected by the territorial disputes of mythical creatures", but after witnessing that and the subsequent persecution of Jacob by fandom i think i pretty firmly align myself with Team Jacob.

i mean, again, it would be nice if people who throw around a word like "rape" knew exactly what it meant. Jacob is hardly a rapist. he was simply fighting for the woman he loved(and who he wanted to save from a what he believed was death) in the only way he knew how, to show her how he felt by kissing her. all you Team Edward fans can keep calling him a rapist or arrogant or aggressive or whatever other adjective you want. doesn't make it true. just makes you seem like you don't have a fair grasp on the english language or reality. just sayin'.

Megan? Team Jacob FTW!!!

bambi.x said:

I see the point but I'm totally Team Edward-I don't know what he really looks like (Robert Pattinson-close) but he is hot! I;m just reading your comments and lots of you are like "Have you read breaking dawn?" eeek no I haven't! I haven't even read Eclipse-I got the first one three days ago, and have borrowed New Moon from the library! I'm so behind! Love the books Me-biggest fan! I'm actually depressed that I haven't got one to read and I think I'm in love with Edward :P

Kayla said:

I have to completly agree with your article - I tried to stay neutral throughout the books because lets face it - whats the point in getting involved with some crazy fangirl obsession for hate - but after Eclipse, I have to say that I went completly to Team Jacob - I mean honestly what kind of guy kidnaps you for your own good - god hero worship is so annoying and not to mention - there has already been the perfect vampire/human love story and it wasn't written by SMeyer.

Lilia said:

Thanks for the mention but I just have to chime in with one more reason that I find pretty important.

Edward does not sleep. Instead, he'll watch you sleep and, therefore, witnesses every snore, every teeth grind and...every. single. sleep fart.

Give me Jacob.

Rida said:

Just thought to add, is it really
kidnapping, for all those saying
that edward 'kidnaps' her? her dad knows where she is,
she's with Alice; her best friend. She knows where she is.
It's not impossible to escape. And really, it is
for her protection. And Edward releases he overreacts;
he knows his flaws. He loosened up a bit, and he let
her go to hang out with Jacob.
Jacob and Edward become good friends in Breaking Dawn
so neither of them are as bad as anyone here says.
Jacob ; Awsome
Edward ; Awsome
Bella just happens to choose Edward, is all.
Jacob happens to choose Renesmee.
All ends well; they both find their happily ever after
soo, meh.

Rida said:

sorry i wrote
releases instead of realizes
:)
anyways, I was always team Edward
still will be;; but im glad
Jacob has found his happy ending

Savannah said:

I am Team Jacob, but if Bella chooses to pick Edward and throw her entire life away for a man, then I'm not gonna stop her. She has broken Jacob's heart too many times and I'm happy that he found Nessie, now he can love someone that loves him back. But if it was me in Bella's place I'd pick Jacob for the same reasons, because I wouldn't have to give my life or my family for him. And really think about this. Would you give up your family to be with a vampire? I don't care how much you love a man, your family has been there longer.

sylvia+maggie said:

u so got number 7 WRONG!!! he so did abandone someone!!! and guess who that person may be bella and his pack!! remember when he got the wedding invitation? what did he do!!!!? run away and "i don't care that he came back"!!!!!!!!!!ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh u got skooled!!

hannah said:

bahahaha i love edward!!

and if youve red breaking dawn yet...

*spoiler below*

bella is pregnant!! hahahaha

sylvia+maggie said:

oh and savannah bella did not throw her life away she will never die!!! and bella can control herself now that she is a vampire she saw her dad sue and she could even be by jacob!! and renesmee!!!!!!!!!!!!and now since she went with edward she had a beautiful child that looks just like bella and edward jacob is all patched up!! oh and edward is not a bad person he let jacob have bella remember that talk in breaking dawn when she was pregnant?hahahahahahha!!!!he is the best person she couldve married!!!!!

team edward&jacob said:

I LOVE jacob and I'm sooo happy how breaking dawn turned out. Before breaking dawn, I was kinda leaning toward team jacob, and i hate to say it, but you can see that bella and edward belong together. But I was thinking about it, and just a theory, but no matter who bella chose, jacob won either way. it made me happy! lol because if jacob chose bella, then bella would've never had renesme, and so jacob would've never imprinted on anyone. so he would've been happy with bella forever! but since bella chose edward and had renesmee, jacob imprinted and is now happy again! sorry... i just felt the need to share that. So i LOVE jacob, but i'm so glad that bella and edward ended up together and that jacob is happy too. Sorry, but another theory: Jacob loved bella so much because bella was pretty much 1/2 of the person that jacob imprinted on. ok, i'll shut up now. bye :]

Sam said:

It doesn't matter about what things Edward buys for Bella, or the things he already has. And Edward will never forgive himself for putting Bella in danger...but I think Edward's perfection is very appealing (I would give my soul for Edward!)It's obvious that Edward and Bella belong together. I love Jacob too, but if Bella choose him, once he inprints (yes I have read breaking dawn)he would do the same thing to Bella that Sam did to Leah. I think Edward and Bella's true love conquers all. And Edward and Bella do laugh together...you seem to be critizing Stephenie Meyer more than Edward. Team Edward!!! Go Stephenie!

Amy said:

I think you just recited the Gospel according to Team Jacob, word for word! Watch out for the hordes of brainless Edward fan-girls...they're a vicious lot!

GO TEAM JACOB!

Reason #11: Because his offspring would actually be HUMAN and in all likelihood not kill their mother during birth.

Meghan said:

I haven't read BD yet (because it came out 2 days later than america and on a frigging bank holiday over here!) so my opinion is based solely on the first 3 books. I really, really want to be team Jacob, he's sweet in his own way, not a control freak like Ed and, I agree, I'd prefer to date a hot body than a cold one. But he didn't imprint on Bella. Eventually he will imprint on someone else and then Bella will be left without anyone, so for Bella's sake I am extreamly grudgingly team Edward.

And hay, what's wrong with being immortal? Anne Rice's interveiw with a vampire theorises that the only problem they have, after their family's have all died, edwards problem about soals and the thirst is if they are turned when they're still kids, which Bella's not. I'd say she'll be grand.
And why let that unexplained talent go to waste? :p

And for all those who complain about J.K. being compared to Meyer. We know J.K. is probably a better writer than Meyer. Personally I hate both. But infairness it's the story we're all after. Basically Twilight is teenage chick-lit with vampires and warewolves. Harry Potter was originally written for older children, there was never going to be the amount of lovey dovey stuff the teenage girl fanbase craved. Enter Twilight.

Anywho, hope BD solves all our problems :p

What!? How is Jacob better? If you ahd read Breaking Dawn, then none of these reasons are going to be true. GO TEAM EDWARD FOREVER!!!!!!!!

Cláudia said:

And don't be afraid of some Edward crazy teenagers fans who are all about " Eddie is so perfect"- and manipulative and obsessive. I just prefer a real man ( and a good one), not a perfect statue. And an eternity with Edward? Kill me with boring.
And for people who said that they couldn't be together because Jacob would imprint and left bella all alone, for that logic if bella wouldn't stayed with Edward, Jacob wouldn't imprint on the mutant baby and everyone would be happy.

um... said:

okay, i don't mean to stereotype or anything, but these team edward fans are like 10 years old.

I adore Jacob, and i think they should have used Steven Strait in the movie....

he's so much hotter than Taylor.

kate said:

I VERY STRONGLY Disagree.

Even if Jacob hadn't scared her YET, he would have probably eventualy. Also, Edward is SOOOOO much more romantic than Jacob. He loves her enough to stay with her and RESISTS killing her because he loves her so much.

Btw...

Have you read the 4th book yet?

They are made for each other and they are made to be together. He goes through pain to be with her thats how mich he loves her.

Do I also have to remind you that JACOB BROKE HER HEART when he got all mad and hostile towards her. he carved his own hole and hurt her too. Edward only left trying to SAVE HER SOUL.

They are perfect together and together is where they both belong.

Besides once shes a vampire, all problems solved. Trust me, i'v read the book.

kate said:

EDWARD IS PERFECT AND I WOULD LOVE TO BE WITH HIM FOREVER!!!!

BTW...


Edward fans are not 10 years old! Are you insane! some Moms i know are 40 and Edwad fans. I am 14 and I am a TOTAL EDWARD FAN!!!


I LOVE YOU EDWARD!!!


by the way,

i now compare boys to Edward's personality before I date or even think about falling in love. Edward will always have part of my heart.

puddingBANI said:

OMFG FINALLY!!! when at the breaking dawn party me and 3 other ppl screamed when they said team JACOB!!! i luv this list, and its so tru. never even thought about the rest of the pack fer meh friends... LOL. i luv it!!!

kristi said:

THANK YOU!!!
I've been waiting for something like this.
Edward makes me want to stab myself in the eye.

tiggy said:

poor, sweet Meghan. i'm pretty sure BD has only made more problems for people on BOTH sides of the fence. it truly is the worst book of the series.

i weep for the youth who now hold Edward as a standard for what a perfect boyfriend should be. controlling? check. stalker? check. perfect? ...

also? to those calling Jacob a pedophile. you DO realize that Edward is 100 years Bella's senior, right?

Victoria said:

YOU can HAVE your opinions!!!!!!!!!! I love Edward and guess what JACOB SUXXX tell him to bback off and he basicallly BEGS!! Like what guy does that LAME!

TEAM EDWARD ROCKS!

I do NOT want to live with a smelly dog who if gets mad at me might bite my head off he about freaked out at there wedding so yeah i love edward and i think your just jealous that your stuck with a jacob hmph

mary contraire said:

I agree with you 100%. Team Jacob all the way. I got over Edward halfway through Twilight. Laughter is important. As is your mortal soul....

And a giant, muscular Quiluete guy who built his own motorcycle and wanders around half-naked? Seriously? How can you pass that up?

Forever Twilight said:

UGH!! this is ridiculous. i've been reading all the comments up to here and i must say that i completely disagree with the article and what some team jacob people have stated. first off i'd like to clarify that i've read all four books( which means I've read breaking dawn as well). also, I'm not some 12 year old teenaged girl - I'm 16 but thats not the point. of all comments i've read, i MUST disagree on one comment where it was stated that those who support Edward are "hordes of brainless Edward fan-girls" because its just stupid and i don't really care if it was just stated sarcastically, but I have an average of 93 and I'm going to be a junior of High school so technically, I'm not that brainless. Not to mention the fact that people need a brain to read. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the way Breaking Dawn came out to be and maybe this so called list have some point of its own, but there is no point of assurance that even if Bella chose jacob that their kids won't be "werewolves" as well. if she did chose jacob, she better hope that she wins the lottery or something cuz at the rate jacob treat clothes, its going to be necessary for her to buy thousands of clothes. In regards to what happened in Eclipse, no matter how bad it seems that Edward left Bella, he did it because he thought that was the best for her, he would have never guessed that Bella would react the way she did and some part of me believes that if he did, he won't do what he did; Moreover, if Edward didn't leave, Jacob wouldn't even stand a chance. As to point 10, its just how others viewed them both and if im not mistaken, love isn't about how other people see them, its how they see each other. Besides, Edward always saw bella as a very beautiful person, its just that she can't see that herself. The point with the car is just so stereotyped - if a person is really a fan of the twilight series, then they would have search the internet and find that not all volvo cars are for soccer moms. Jacob's motorcycle doesn't prove anything really and so what if he can fix a car what does that prove? Edward may not seem fun but that can't be for sure either, the book can't cover every single second that bella and edward had shared, maybe he is funny? (of course im saying this all hypothetically) Have it ever crossed a mind that maybe he doesn't seem all that funny because there is usually something bad going on at their present time or in the future that it just doesn't seem appropriate to be making jokes. And again on the abandonment, he did it for her and even when he left it was always him that she thought of. and i repeat, he never thought that his departure would cause so much pain for her. Jacob may be warm but I don't really "sense" that he would be able to give her the type of warmth Edward can provide her. About giving up her soul to be immortal, Edward never asked that of her. That was her decision. Edward would love her no matter how old she got if she didn't chose to be immortal. edward would be happy if she is and when i think of the way jacob acted in eclipse, i would view him as someone who needs to "own" that person they fall for. Edward, on the other hand, did not have to "own" her even though it cause him pain to be separated from her. Its the type of "self-sacrificing" love that isn't so easy to do. I'm not saying that i hate jacob( i used to before i read Breaking dawn but its more of an understanding of how he feels after reading that story in his perspective that it is love as i feel for Edward), its just that Edward always seemed like the perfect match for Bella, even when he left. Having vampires chase around them may sound bad but those dangerous experiences actually made their relationship stronger. Which couple in this universe doesn't encounter problems? and Edward's annoying sisters? Wasn't it obvious from the very first book that Bella liked Alice as well as Esme even though she isn't edward's sister? Her relationship with Rosalie may not have been smooth but they did get along in the end, and i really doubt that even though rosalie was rude to her, bella never really hated her so the chance of competing with his sister, seems hardly possible. about jacob's clothes being exploded off - well i can't say much on that since i've imagined him to be all hairy but its a matter of opinion in this case. The point about "getting laid" is kind of inapplicable at this point, since i've read the book, since they did have a baby the normal way and im sure most of us as readers knows how that happens.
Wow that was long.
If i've offended anyone though, im sorry but i was writing this at bursting moment. i may be a bit biased in some cases though. I'm just expressing my opinion. But to be honest, i did think of jacob as someone who was using bella's depressing feelings as an advantage during New moon(though i only thought of that after he kissed her in Eclipse). Despite it all though, i've come to "understand",as much as a reader can for a fictional character, Jacob's view on things. I'm not trying to change anyone's views despite what it may seem. I just find a need to be more fair for Edward.
People shouldn't compare Stephenie Meyer with J.K. Rowling cuz they're writing similar topics but different genres of fiction. The twilight series is more of a romance fiction than Harry Potter. Harry Potter is more of a book suitable for all genders and age group but I feel that Twilight would mostly appeal to the female gender of the young adult age period. Their ways of writing are naturally different since they learn things differently especially when one is in Britain and one is in the U.S., so it should be expected that J.K. Rowling writes better. Personally, I kind of prefer Stephenie Meyer's style of writing but maybe thats because i've been taught in the U.S. myself.
OKAY i should stop.
*Also, it was the fact that Edward and Bella that I come to LOVE this series so much. And it was Edward that made me wish that I was a vampire myself. XP silly, i know.*

As an avid J.K. Rowling fan I am deeply offended that her masterpiece is being compared to this sorry excuse of a "saga".

Also, bravo, Jacob is a million times better than Edward, no matter what Breaking Dawn says.

Jennifer said:

I started out reading Twlight and of course, fell in love with the Edward and Bella story. Then, I read New Moon. At first, once Edward left I was thoroughly digusted and didn't want to even finish reading since Edward wouldn't be around for the next few hundred pages but I did anyway. And I discovered Jake. I guess I fell for Jake because he is more realistic. He's a real guy. He has real emotions. He can get angry at Bella and not care if he hurts her feelings. He can love Bella just as strongly. Things between Bella and Jake aren't perfect but that's what I love. Perfect gets boring, fast. Jake makes mistakes. Jake doesn't always do what he should but I love him anyway.

I loved your list and totally agree, Jacob would make a way better boyfriend than Edward (even if you were a vampire and just as pretty as he is).

felicia said:

the last point is sorta like stupid, does sex really have to be the issue when it comes to edward vs. jacob? even though bella does want to do it with edward, it's because she's in love with him. saying edward was perfect and then later naming his flaws, you totally contradicted yourself. like, "oh he's perfect... blah blah" then saying things like he's too cold, he drives a volvo and the thing were he wants to kill bella when he kisses her? wow, yah totally contradicted yourself. and edward is perfect in BELLA'S perspective. everyone has to realize it's in her perspective. edward is perfect to bella. also about the whole thing where edward doesn't make bella laugh, they have their own special relationship. only reason her and jacob have that kind of relationship where they laugh and have fun is because they are BEST FRIENDSm and thats just how they are with each other. yeup, TEAM EDWARD! but jacob is pretty awesome too, but not as great as edward.
ps.- jacob is pretty selfish, thats why edward is so much better.

Goldie said:

I am so glad that someone wrote an article supporting Team Jacob! It's about time we were represented somehow, even if our cause is somewhat hopeless. I understand the appeal of Edward, but you're right, he's no fun. He is overprotective and seems to always put Bella in danger, not that she cares at all. It's just that she's so in love with him that she can't think for herself anymore, and I want that freedom. Jacob can give that. To each her own.

Courtney said:

I completely agree with you! I love Jacob! ^^ I wouldn't want to, um, die to "live" with Edward. It's completely unnatural... and weird... kinda scary too. :\

Anyway, some of these comments about "letting people have their own opinions" are ridiculous. That goes both ways, darlings!

cristina said:

Hey girls, I'm from Spain, and I support Edward... ok, Jacob is fun, is hot... but arrogant.


Edward isn't so fun, but he's very, very romantic. And mature.


something that Jacob is not.


He protects Bella all the time because he loves her. Love is a feeling that comes, point. You can not choose whom to love ..

TEAM EDWARD FOREVER!!

Liz said:

OMG!! thank you! its about time that someone did something like this for Jacob! I'm gonna bookmark this page and shove it in all of my friends' faces because they are all edward fans! me and my best friend are the only two that truly love jacob, well, she hasnt decided yet, but im a total jacob fan!

Terrbear said:

Okay, so this seems kind of pointless to me now. Haven't you read the Terrible Book? Breaking Dawn! All those reasons you gave (which are valid even though I was Team Edward) are cancelled out by that book. Actually, don't read it. It was on fanfiction. Sorry. Go Team Seth!

Bee said:

I love you for this. I love Jacob. I normally hate Bella but when she's with Jacob he brings out the best in her. You listed all the reasons i would always choose him over edward.
Thanks for writing this!

sarah said:

umm... no. i respect your choice but really, what kind of a story would it be if there's no conflict? if she's with Jacob, its just another relationship. but when she's with Edward, theres conflict, and people actually care to read on in these books. everyone knows Bella belongs with Edward. She can't live without him. So, you're saying that you like Jacob because he's warm, good looking, and doesn't have annoying "sisters"-- nice reasoning.
And its not like i HATE Jacob, either. I like him, but if he and Bella were together i'd be mad- like most of the Twilight fans.

Inn said:

First, I'm sure you read Breaking Dawn. And if you haven't, DON'T READ THIS. SPOILER ALERT -----------------------------
With that being said, you know what happens to Jacob. That's why Bella can't stay with Jacob. Because he imprints on someone who is not Bella. What would Bella have done if she had chosen him, and he'd left her for someone else?

Toni said:

YES! I've always been on Team Jacob for these reasons. I agree!

Amy said:

Grow up, Edheads.

This article was written about why Jacob would make a better boyfriend than Edward. She never states that Bella and Jake get together, nor does she deny anything that happened in Breaking Dawn.

The author is just stating her opinion. You can agree or disagree, but if you're trying to change anyone's minds, flooding the message box with "ZOMG DIDNT U REED BREAKING DAWN?! IT IZ LIEK TOTALLY BELLA/EDWARD AND JAKE/RENESMEE 4EVR!!!11" just isn't going to do it.

Katherine said:

Personally, I think that your list is completely foolish. A lot of your facts are completely false.
First of all, Bella LOVES Edward. Ever heard of the word love? She doesn't care if he's too perfect, more attractive than her, or is too cold when she's close to him. When you're in love, you put all of the complications aside, no matter what. Obviously, Bella doesn't care about all of that because she can't take the feeling when they are apart.
You mentioned how Edward drives a Volvo and how a motorcycle is "so much hotter". Maybe that's just your type. And who cares what kind of car someone drives? Not me. And not Bella, evidently. Also, you mention that Bella never wins a fight with Edward. Ah, yes she does. It's a big one. She wants to become a vampire, and Edward strongly disapproves, but the date ends up being set nonetheless.
I can name numerous times when Bella laughs in Edward's presence. On their honeymoon in Breaking Dawn, they have an amazing, blissful time. You say they're too busy "living the Greatest Love Story Ever Told" to have fun, and that's completely false. Once again, may I add that they're in love? That beats all the odds. Sure, Jacob might know how to have a good time and be a lot of fun to drink with on the beach, but excuse me for saying this, he's more best friend material than "soulmate" material. And all he had was a crush on Bella, it's not like he imprinted on her or anything.
Next, Edward did NOT leave Bella abandoned in the woods. He left her right in eyeshot of the house, where she could get back easily. She made the mistake of wandering after him and losing her way. Consider the facts, please. And Edward left her for her protection. He didn't want her to be killed. After that incident on her birthday, he got to thinking about how dangerous it really could be. That's why he left her. And it WAS for her own good. And for his, as well, because if he killed her he'd also want to die too. Which brings up another point. Edward loves Bella enough that he'd want to die if she died. I don't believe that Jacob would do that. Also, Jacob was so set on getting Bella that he would do anything to win her from Edward. He'd even kill Edward (which would hurt Bella terribly). That doesn't seem right to me. Edward says that he'd ACCEPT if Bella choose Jacob, which is more mature and more of a kind thing to do. It shows he cares about her. That's right, he genuinely CARES.
Bella is also WILLING to give up her human life to be a vampire because she loves Edward more. She loves him so much she doesn't care what the cost is. And yes, Bella has been in mortal danger in many of the books, but she comes out alive, IF you recall. And she continues to stay with Edward, so that has to tell you that she doesn't, um, care if she's in mortal danger or not. And Bella does NOT have to compete with Edward's sisters. She loves the other Cullens as if they are her actual family. Which, they do become her family in Breaking Dawn.
Sure, Jacob's clothes might rip off when he phases into a werewolf, but who the heck cares? It's not about lust here. It's not about sex. It's about love. You and your friend "Lilia" really should realize that love is not all about that.
Which brings me to my last point. Sure, you can get laid with Jacob, but why should that matter? It seems like sex is all that guys want, and Edward is not like that. He wants to keep his virtue. Which seems like the sensible thing to do, in their case. In my opinion (and in Stephenie's, as I've heard), it's the sensible thing to do in every situation. Wait until you're married. Which is what Bella and Edward do. And, he doesn't WANT to kill Bella while he's kissing her. He never wants to; he's a vampire and he just loves blood. It's just his nature. And he doesn't want to feel that way about her, he wants what's best for Bella. And that's what makes their relationship so strong.
Which is why Edward is undoubtedly a better choice. And Bella loves him. She can't deal without him. Jacob is better as a best friend. I mean, what if she choose Jacob and he imprinted on someone? That wouldn't be so great. Edward promises forever, and so forever it is. :)



Ashley N. said:

I'm a big Jacob fan, and honestly, I like Bella better with him. But, at the same time, I'm not an Edward hater. I think that he's also interesting and good for her in his own way. Now, I'm not going to say too much because I don't want to spoil anything for people who haven't finished "Breaking Dawn," but I REALLY love how Stephenie Meyer concludes that little love triangle, how she ties up all the loose ends, and who Bella ultimately ends up with.

BIG Jacob fan, though. :o)

Katherine said:

^^and sorry for posting twice. :)

jenessa.rosali said:

First, I'd like to say that I am an Edward fan. However, I agree that Jake was there for her when she needed someone. And coming from my personal experience, that's more important than anything else. Edward never should have left, yes it proved he truly loved her because it was so difficult, but it was still wrong. Jake and Bella never would have worked out. He drives her nuts, didn't imprint on her, and they were best friends, platonic family in her mind. I'd also like to stress that she kisses Edward freely, but Jake has to trick her into kissing him. Lastly, Bella is free to make her choices (or Stephenie is, but still) and she shouldn't be criticized for being an individual. I would have picked Jake, only because Edward tried to give up on the relationship, but that is just me. Bella is perfect with Edward.

Christine said:

I totally agree with you! Edward is so selfish, unlike Jacob who actually CARES for her!

TEAM JACOB!

"5. You don't have to give up your immortal soul and abandon your family to date Jacob. (Which means you're the type of self-actualized individual who realizes that love is not the same as infatuation and no man, no mater how dreamy is worth selling your soul for -– I wish I'd had a bossy blogger to tell me that at 17.)"

Bella doesn't have to give up her soul and abandon her family. She WANTS to. She's not selling her soul, or giving up anything. She wants to be a vampire.

This is great and makes perfect sense, Team Jacob all the way! He is a total babe :) All you sparkly lovers can keep boring, old virginal Edward :P

I mix between Edward and Jacob would be the blast!

Still...we've got to be happy with the fictional characters

TwiBel said:

i´m no agree. Bella loves Edward so much, and ok, she loves Jacob too, but the types of love are different-
We Know that if Bella stays with Jacob, he will imprint and he will have to leave her (just like what happened with LEAH, SAM and EMILY). We ALL know Edward is perfect for Bella. And thanks to Edward, Bella is alive. She could have died violated or crushed by Tyler´s car.. so you have no point.

Julia said:

Oh, I love Edward! But your reasons are really good.
But, i want to say... Edward isn't perfect. You said in Item 1: Edward can't even kiss his girlfriend without wanting to kill her.
And another defects more.
I love him, but, well, all opinions are valids.

Oh, yes, I remember the first comment: Te Twilight's books aren´t written at a 12 year old level. That comment hurts, sorry. Steph is an awesome righter, and JK too. It's no reasons to compare. They're different people, with differents book. Isn't the fault of them to be two genies.

And sorry for my english, I'm argentinian.
TEAM EDWARD!
Love

Chels said:

umm, i would like to point out, if bella had gone with Jake, and she hadn't been changed, she still would have been in danger from the volturi.

Gabriel Laind said:

My english isn't good, but I dissapointed with this...

10. Edward isn't perfect, he makes mistakes, did you really read the book?... I think someone is idolizing Jacob, making him perfect with this top 10 reasons... And you supose to be against perfection...?

9. Well, you likes motos, everybody likes motos, but car are allways more convenient if you don't like the cold, you know? If you don't like Edward's cold body, you can't like motos... =S...

8. Yeah, Jacob can make laugh Bella, but I never though Jabob was really funny at all...

7. With this point you really are inconsisten with your tenth point =S, 'cause Edwards DO makes mistakes! And Jacob abandoned Bella a lot of times (In this point I think again: Did you read the book?)

6. I like cold more than warm, what's the problem? =S Summer are really hot DX, like Jacob's body =S...

5. No, you don't have to abandon your family, but make your future sons werewolf... OMG!

4. Mmmm, no, he isn't but they have a really serious problem with vampires =S, werewolf can't trust vampires... vegetarians or not... I don't like it.

3. "He's got a pack of hot beasts for all your friends to date."

2. His clothes explode of... and he become a furry beast... Isn't like I against bestiality... of course not *sarcasm*

1. Actually is Bella who can't even kiss her boyfriend without wanting to kill him *cough*

Its hard not to i mean he gives u laughs and isnt 100 to bad he loves bellas daughter but now she can love him and be family without loosing edward.

midnight sun said:

who said edward cant fix a car
he cant fix an italian sports car but in the 2 book new moon he was willing to fix mike newtons car so ha i love jacob but he cant play the piano they both have skills but edward has mad skills and the only reason he kidnaps is she told him he could and she needed protection... jacob rescues her anyways so everything is gud

Marie said:

So i adore and love Jacob and i want him to have the happiest ending, which i think he did because he gets to be in reneesme's life which is what he wanted now that he has imprinted. At one point i really wanted her and jacob to be together because i didn't think it was fair that Bella had to give up so much and i thought she should live her life normally BUT stephenie found a way to give both her and edward everything they wanted. and im grateful bcuz jacob would have imprinted on someone and broken bella's heart eventually and i feel like Edward deserved his happiness as well. all in all, her becoming a vampire is what truly made her happy and seems to erase all of the reasons she shouldn't be with Edward. she couldn't give Jacob the love he needed bcuz Edward existed...(im still not sure im okay with the fact that they even had a kid tho :) lol i would have like a little edward jacob but then i guess jacob wouldnt have got his happy ending.) (but then again...did anyone else feel like him and leah had a chance??)

Morgan said:

Jacob is sooo much better than edward. I am so happy that someone agrees with me. When I went to get Breaking Dawn 12 in the morning there were activities first. One of them was a discusion on who was better JACOB or Edward about 93 percent said Edward. :(
Thanks for even more great reasons to love Jacob.
Oh and for Inn and EDWARD CULLEN ROX Jacob never would havend imprinted on Bella's baby if she was never with edward in the first place because she never would have had the babby. And do remember that Bella did almost die because of the half human half vampire child she gave birth to.
Victoria you are sooooooooooooooooooo wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

violet said:

TEAM Edward all the way. the love between bella and Edward is so strong that she is willing to do the impossible to be with him, isn't that what love supposed to be about, to love one person so much that you would literally die for him. Jacob never inspired lovey feelings to bella he was just a friend who happened to be there when her true love had decided to give her a chance at a normal life. in the end isn't it better to be with someone who loves you so much that is willing to leave for your benifit. i really don't care what you all think but bella and edward are twilight that's it jacob is just a bistandar.

So, I'm totally switzerland. I mean I love both Edward and Jacob. They both have so qualities that I don't like though. I mean Edward is perfect, and he does always win a fight, so that might get a little annoying. But jacob is immature and he comes on TOO strongly. I could get used to them though. But when it comes down to it, Edward might leave to protect you, and Jacob will imprint on somebody else. So i'm total switzerland.

I absolutely agree with you, i was Team Jacob from the start. Edward is cool in his own way [to Bella of course] but to me hes just not very appealing. Jacob may be immature as people say but hes 16, it's the age it's ok to act like a kid sometimes, being boring & too mature is not always good. I personaly like to have fun & Jacob is full of fun to me :]
I'm not dissing anyone who likes Edward, we just all have our opninions.
And my opninion is ........ Jacob Rocks!!!!! x3

AJ Santos said:

OK so, We will never please everyone. That's a fact. Not everyone will like Edward the way others do, we'll you're more into Jacob. But being with Edward or Jacob is not the question, I guess. Do you realize, why do some women choose to be with a rotten, stupid man that we think and she is happy with him.

AJ Santos said:

EVER HEARD OF THE WORD LOVE?
WHY DO SOME WOMEN CHOOSE or DESTINED TO BE WITH SOMEONE WHO OTHERS MAY THINK AS STUPID, ROTTEN, WORSE CASE AND YET SHE IS ABSOLUTELY HAPPY WITH HIM.
MAGICAL ISN'T IT?
IT IS THE REALITY THAT THE FICTIONAL SERIES TOUCH UPON.
LIFE, EVEN YOUR OWN LIFE IS NOT ENOUGH.

It's bella's choice to be with Edward. We know she loves jacob but not as much as how she loves Edward....

besides., edward explained himself to jacob why he left bella., and that fainting in the woods stuff was just an effect for the readers to feel the lonesome bella went through when edward left!

though jacob do deserve a round of applause for being faithful to bella even though he is not she is not his soulmate.

ok, here's the thing...
i totally luv edward and all of that jazz. its not that i dont like jacob, which i do, but i just think edward and bella r a better couple/soulmates. im sooo glad that stephanie meyer made jacobe imprint on renesmee cuz then i dont feel so sorry for him. im soooo excited for twilight the movie to come out and the other books about twilight in december.

Hell I was all Team Ed when I read twilight, then New Moon came about.
Snap.
Jake's my life now.
I really think Bella would be happier with Jake, for many reasons. I mean, Ed's always 'this is all my fault, I shouldn't exist' yada. And is this overprotective, control freak of a bastard.
Jake is more adventurous, actually has a sense of humour (which hasn't died out in the past god-knows-how-long, is not a cold wall, is hot (literally), and makes a good pet. THERE!

LMFAO I LOVE YOU. #2 made me shoot water out my nose.

Jennifer said:

Omg, how frackin' true. Every single point I agreed with. Plz, Eddie Sparkles just makes me want to roll my eyes. It made me laugh when Bella compared cuddling Eddie Sparkles with cuddling Michelangelo's David - Wft Meyer? How is that appealing? Maybe because I'm not 13, I can't see the attraction of stone over warm human flesh.

twilight__lover said:

i can't understand why there's even a jacob team.. i mean i know he's a great guy and all that but the books are completely "edward and bella" and Edward is just SO perfect!
how can you prefer jake?
regards from spain!

twilight__lover said:

and yes, he is perfect FOR US..so what? and i don't think we want to be close to a very hot body during a hot summer, (as well as we may not want to be near the cold body of edward in winter) but that's not the point.
whatever you say, bella really loves edward, more than jake, and that's a fact.
--EDWARD TEAM--

I was ALL for Edward. Like, I didn't like Jacob at all. But in the last book I kind of changed my opinion. I think I'm still for Edward, but those points you made were very convincing, things I never thought about. But your last points about the sex scene would change if you read Breaking Dawn...anyway, nice points. Glad you weren't mean about it so you don't have angry Edward fanatics after you! :P

Renee said:

I am all for Team Jacob.....Vampires just creep me out!!!!

Virgo said:

In the first book I liked much Edward's character for the aura of mystery that surrounded him and his love with Bella hooked me, but as I have been reading other books, Bella seems to me unbearable and manipulative, in addition to egoistic, capricious, and very dependent. Edward more and more apathetic and boring, as cold emotionally as he is supposed to be physically, on the other hand Jacob's character is exciting, entertaining, passionate, warm and incomprehensibly in love with Bella. It has been difficult to me to finish the last book, for the lack of interest that was growing in me for the relation between Edward and Bella. Mentally I was more next to Jacob.
Undoubtedly I would remain with warm Jacob

Lexxi said:

The way Bella never wins an argument is probably 75% of the reason I don't like Edward. He's so controlling. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Edward. I think it would be awesome if the whole series was written from his perspective. (I'm about ready to kill who ever caused Stephenie Meyer to stop writing Midnight Sun. She didn't even get to the meadow scene!! *pout*) But I'm not on team Jacob either. I don't think Bella's good enough for Jacob. After what she's put him through, she doesn't deserve him. Though I think it's adorable that he imprinted on Renesmee.

Shay said:

I SO agree with you! I've been on team Jacob ever since the second book. He was the light that took her out of the darkness that is Eduard! I mean, come on! I would SO go with the werewolf. He reminds me of a guy who would party and drink and stuff, while Eduard sits there drinking tea and eating crumpets.

Jackie said:

So I'm a little late, but when I saw this I just had to comment.
I agree with you 100%! To me, Bella seems so pathetically needy when she's around Edward, and like you mentioned, she always feels stupid. It annoys me how much she needs Edward.
I just loved the BellaxJacob storyline because for me, it was so much more entertaining. It wasn't all about how Bella can't breathe and she's so mesmerized by Edward's hotness (sounds more like lust than love to me ..), it was about how Jacob could make her laugh and actually enjoy life, despite how depressed she was. I'd take a guy like that any day ..
& yes, I have read the books and I know how it turns out. I guess I'm just irritated that the best friend never seems to win in these situations in books, even though he's clearly more deserving. >_>

Jourdan said:

All you people who are saying that if it weren't for edward bella wouldn't be alive cause he saved her from the van are forgetting one thing. He told her that her number was up when she first met him cause he wanted kill her and drink all her blood. And because she managed to live through something where she should've died, the universe needed to put things back in order so seh kept being put in situations where she was supposed to die. none of this ever would've have happened if she hadn't met edward.

raven said:

aww, its posted august. ah God! I hate how your break it down but this list is totally off now since breaking dawn proves that Bella is for Edward and nothing more. I would have loved to break my own top 10 reason why Edward is much better than Jacob. Im a totally team Edward, not merely because his perfect but because he love Bella more than anything else.

:team Edward and Bella:

Sam said:

I would definitely choose Jacob over Edward. Bella and Edward are almost sickeningly infatuated with each other, I think they're just right for each other. And I never liked Bella's character much. I think Jacob deserves better than her.

Mati said:

shut up i am so a team edward fan and dont say im a 10 year old idiot i am 16 and have the best average in my class(97). dont say they dont laugh, its just that edward is mature enough to not just randomly burst out in laughing fits. dont say they dont do it because they do it EVRY NIGHT WHENEVER THEY WANT!!!!! any ways your just saying that you like a jerk like jacob better because you know that someone as incredible as edward would never like a pathetic kid like you. (he like real women like me;P)

andree said:

I AGREE 1000000000 PERCENT! finally! someone who understands

Lisa said:

Though I dislike Bella in almost every way possible I have to admit that being with Jacob really makes her a lot more tolerable. I have little against Edward, apart from the fact he's a really bland character who possesses very little personality. Not to mention he is too 'perfect' for me to be able to relate to. Seriously, who 'sparkles' in the sunlight...Give me Dracula any day.

Jacob's not perfect, FAR from it too...The difference is he's just more 'real'. I was really disappointed with how Stephenie decided to end the book. Yeah, I knew Edward and Bella would end up together by the time I had read 50 pages of Twilight but making Jacob imprint on her daughter... I think she really ran out of alternatives, even Leah Clearwater would have been better.

Hannah said:

So . . . is anyone else laughing about the difference in grammer skills between the posts of Jacob and Edward fans? I'm just saying, it doesn't bode well for one of the teams.

Awesome article, I laughed out loud. My husband is wolf-tastic

KitKat said:

Meh, well i've read all the comments so far...very interesting . At first, I hated Jacob but when I read Eclipse I started to fall for him. I know, it sounds corny but its true :P At first, i absolutely LOVED edward, but I just HAVE to say that he's maybe...too perfect...? I dunno, just my opinion. Its just that i wouldn't really give up my life for a boy. Again, just my opinion. No flamers please :) And perfect gets boring after awhile. I mean, Edward is also VERY protective of Bella, which I find maybe annoying, one a bit though. And like i said, he's PERFECT. I mean, Jacob makes mistakes, thats human, right? I guess i like humans more than mythical creatures. But I still love the Edward and Bella pairing and if Bella DID choose Jacob I don't even know what would happen then. Edward is great in many ways, too. He LOVES Bella, very much. Protective, etc. I think they're both great. But sorry Edward fans, I guess I choose Team Jacob.

Im not ranting or anything like that, just opinions, and i can express my feelings if i want to :) And yes I have read BD, don't flame ^_^

Team Jacob FTW!

You Don't Want To Know xD said:

I've read most of the comments so far, I find the Edward fans very funny xD You guys just made my day :P

Anyways my opinion,
Well at first I thought the Edward and Bella couple was adorable but as i read on and on about them, it got boring. I mean "Mr. Sparkles" is all perfect and such. Which very much annoys me. He's controlling, like one of the commenters here said. Bella is very dependant on Edward. More like addicted actually. She was helpless as EVER, I thought that she was too dependant on Edward. She thought he was a freakin' drug for heaven's sake. She looked stupid kinda that she needed Edward so much. As for Jacob, he's my favorite. I mean, when Edward left Bella in the woods for her own good, Bella was depressed as hell. I didn't really want to read on and on about how she was depressed without Mr. Sparkles yada yada. But I was encouraged when Jacob came into the book. He seems like a fun guy to hang out with, he DOES actually know how to have fun, unlike Edward who just loves Bella so much that they don't even have any fun at all. I thought Jacob was wonderful, and totally in love with Bella, which I found interesting. But she broke him once Edward came back. I found that ANNOYING. I hated her for that actually. I don't think she even deserves to be with Jacob anymore after what she did to him. I'm glad though that he gets to be with someone that can actually be with him, her DAUGHTER. I find that kinda sick though, but adorable at the same time. I know weird :P

Its not that im ranting, well I think I kinda am actually xD But that's just my opinion on how the Edward and Bella pairing is, don't flame >_

Anyways, in short, I think that they all got their happy endings, but its kinda sad that the "best friend" never gets to be with the girl in these kinds of books, like one of the commenters on this article said.

Morgan said:

Team JACOB
Now I am not saying that Edward is not a nice... being he is just like u said boring has no character and is sopposed to be dead. JACOB for like the reasons u said is the right person for Bella they r soulmates they r meant to be. If you dissagree and u r team eddward cuz u don't like wolfs remember this, it is half of Edwards fault that JACOB is a wolf. No vamps = No Wolfs soo no Edward = JACOB and Bella living the happily ever after, wich is how it is sopposed to be.

You should really stop all this fighting on whose better..

gina said:

edward is for bella. it's just how it is. they're meant to be together in the book. sure, everyone has their own opinions about who THEY would like, but bella's supposed to be with edward. i'm not on either team, i think both guys in the book seem great, it's really about someone's personal taste.

Cait said:

Bella doesn't deserve Jacob. He is too good for her, and she's just a whiny little brat. She and Edward deserve each other because they're both just so effing annoying. Jacob deserves someone much better. If he was gay he could totally get with Jasper.

I am ABSOLUTELY for Edward and Bella getting together..

that means one less girl to compete with jacob for :]

Elise said:

Thank god for this post!!! All of my friends and I have read these books and i am the only one who LOVES Jacob.Sure Edward is hot and all, but if he really loved Bella like he said, he never would have left her; sure he came back, but he still left, and Jacob was the one that helped her put her life back together.Bella should have thanked Jacob more, not kept hurting him...I honestly thought i was the the only one who liked Jacob.

Elise said:

I was totaly Team Edward until the like the middle of the thrid book, then he just started to really bug me...all of my friends who have read the books think i am a total idiot for loving Jacob so much, but i just can't help it. Sure Edward is hot, but he left Bella, yes he DID come back, but he still left, and who helped her put her life back together?Jacob did, im just sayin'...BTW, BD almost ruined the entire series for me, i was kinda pissed off throught pretty much the entire thing(except of course Jacob's part)i will admit tho, i am happy for Bella and Edward,but i will always LOVE Jacob.

Kerli said:

i liked Edward better in the 1st two books.
but when i was reading Eclipse, i felt like something was missing and i realized that it was Edward's personality! i just found him BORING.
Jacob was a better developed character.
but i think it was kind of obvious that Bella would end up with Edward. cuz if she didn't, that would be kind of stupid.

Quote from Eclipse--- "He's like a drug for you Bella." Jacob said. "I see that you can't live w/o him now. But i would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun."
A lot of people seem mad that Bella went with Edward, but i knew that she would.
that's ok, i'll take Jacob.

Natalie said:

EXACTLY!!!! team jacob all the way!!!!!

Kelly DeAnn said:

I TOTALLY AGREE!
Jacob never left Bella. He's not all mushy-gushy, and is her best friend(You gotta be a friend before you can be a lover). He's a human space heater. He can make her laugh. She could maintain a normal life with him and not give up her friends and family.

In addition, I also feel for Jacob's situation.

He loves Bella so much. And Bella is so wrapped up in Edward and a little bit of Jacob. He knows that her life would be easier than it is in, well, heck any of the books really, with him. And in New Moon, as soon as Edward is back in the picture, She kinda pushes Jacob aside, like he's chopped liver. And everyone says he's "immature" and "reckless", But, really, he's just heartbroken.

And everyone is also freaking out about Jacob & Renesmee. "HE IMPRINTED ON HER DAUGHTER!" "THAT'S SICK/HORRIBLE!" "I WOULD KILL HIM!"

Yeah, that sounds great. Kill someone because they found their true happiness and someone they love. What if Bella was killed because she loved Edward? OH, WAIT. SHE ALMOST WAS.

I am happy that he finally imprinted. I'm happy that he's happy despite the somewhat awkward circumstances with the whole mother-then-daughter thing.

Well, Edward and Bella had sex, but that led to a little thing called BREAKING DAWN.

Mimi said:

Team Jacob... Edward is perfect and all that (and kinda gayish sorry)... Somehow, Edward makes me weary of love... Life with Jake is fun and exciting. I want Jake.........

and um. edwards great. and jacob is great.
end of story.

I DON'T AGREE

we know edward sucks for some ways but jacob sucks more than some of us know.

Kayla Jo said:

JACOB, JACOB, JACOB, JACOB, JACOB, JACOB, JACOB!!

I've read all of the books, and I've been Team Jacob since his first appearance in Twilight. As in, I thought, man I really like that kid, and then by New Moon...it was ON. Seriously, I understand that Eddie boy is the romantic, painfully beautiful lover...but Jacob is the passionate, playful, muscular piece of gorgeous. Jacob is warm and strong, whereas Edward is a cold rock. Cuddly.

Don't get me wrong, when I read Twilight, I was in love with Edward like everyone else. And I still like him alright. But after reading New Moon...where Edward left Bella...and Jacob had to put the pieces together and try to turn her into a living being again, and how Jacob would KNOW that leaving Bella would NEVER be the best thing for her.

And I still don't get how people can say they'd rather chill with the vamps than hang out with the pack. The pack are rowdy and fun...the kind that have bonfires and wrestle around. The vampires are too foo-foo for me...too glammed up, with their expensive cars and chill demeanor. I prefer the playful boisterousness of the wolves anyday.

So even though Bella's fates been sealed, I still remain wholeheartedly TEAM JACOB.

I agree, let Bella & her teenieboppers have the Edwards. =]

Kayla Jo said:

This is a more to-the-point response than my last, as I'm making a direct statement based on a past comment.

Several people mentioned that if Bella had chosen Jacob, he would have left her after imprinting. Some comments included that he would have left Bella for her own daughter.

These comments don't make much sense, considering Jake imprinted on Bella & EDWARD's child, had Bella chosen Jacob, it would have been quite impossible for Jake to imprint on Renesmee, because Bella wouldn't have had a child with Edward.

So...I stand by my ways of being the worst Twilight fan ever: Team Jacob, I actually loved New Moon, I wanted Bella to stay human, I like Leah, I like the wolves better than the vampires, I find Alice a bit much sometimes, I really liked the human characters, and...I could continue...

sierra said:

i am so team Jacob to. he's amazing, hot(have you seen his abs), strong, sweet, funny, warm,and when he's in his werewolf form he's all cuddly like a giant teddy bear.

sierra said:

p.s. i love him!!!!!!!!! how could anyone not

KATRIENA said:

Hey i am so Team Jacob all the way..i may be a vampire finatic but Jacob is hot and no matter how much you think you love a guy it would be dumb to give up your soul and then haveing to live 4 eternity with the perfectionist is a whole nother matter...how boring!!!!!!
GO TEAM JACOB!!!

jacob_girl said:

i agree with everything of those reasons. i felt cold everyday at my area. ijust want a warm body to hold me. and i had a dream i dated jacob and all the things they said happened. Team jacob! team jacob! personally i'd rather have a wolf then a puppy! and Megan Irwin we picked Team Jacob becuase some like it Hot! u know what i mean jacob is better then edward.
all must pick team jacob *twitches eye*

Lydia said:

OMG I HATE JACOB!! ur soooo wrong about all those things!!! i mean, honestly i didnt read them all cuz i was so mad, but bella and edward DO laugh!!! AND seriously edward has lots of self control and he certaintly CAN kiss bella and do other things, have u read breaking dawn?!!? and edward wants the best for bella. he would do anything 4 wats best 4 her. jacob just wants her. and if bella wanted some1 else, edward would accept her decision, while jacob just keeps trying. EDWARD IS SO MUCH BETTER, I MEAN SERIOUSLY PEOPLE!!!!!

Devon said:

I'm Team Jacob cause my girlfriend is a huge Team Edward fan and it amuses me to see her annoyed over some silly book. Hopefully i can use a few of your points to get to her a little more and act like I actually have read the books. Thanks.

I am team Jacob all the way after reading New Moon I wanted to kill Edward for leaving her and then she has to go rescue him um isnt it supposed to be the other way aroud Edward rescue Bella

Francesca said:

I love Jacob. I think that Meyer ended the series so totally harsh like Jacob fallin for Nessie. EWW!! But oh well I totally agree with you and the reasons why Jacob is better than Edward.

stella said:

im glad i came across this page...im totally in team jacob... but personally, im glad he's found his imprintee...renesmee. Bella and Edward are made for each other

Kris said:

Only two out of ten of reasons were actually good reasons. One the family car is a VOLVO chic..He has an austin martin chic...
And edward thinks she is perfect and not worthy of him...and Bella doesn't have enough confidence to think too highly of herself period so therefor she thinks he is perfect.
Uh they laughed in the meadow and chuckled about dumb Mikey boy..And other occasions they have really enjoyed themselves as well. She can't help she's totally in love...She thinks Jacob is a kid and barely loves him. It's more of a ohh I love you because your kind and you are there for me..SHe is sooo using him....He would get hurt. Jacob doesn't keep her on her toes or guessing and girls like challenges he is soooo easy....

YOu are clueless read the books and stop skimming through them because Jacob was totally rude to her in New MOON..when he first became a shapeshifting werewolf and then apologized about it just like edward. They both are mean to her one day and then nice the next or apologizing...Really come one Jacob hasn't been the perfect man here either.

True jacob is warm and she doesn't have to give her soul up for him that I totally agree with and those are great points but your only points you should have stuck with those and your argument wouldn't have had any holes in it...

Bella is a magnetic for Disaster in Forks if Edward never saved her from the dang VAN it would be no team JACOB...LOL he saved her life or atleast from being paralyzed. Also another point if it wasn't for Edward keeping her from being raped there would be NO NO NO team JACOB....smartie..she would have been dead, psycho or back at home with her mom.....So really Edward has saved her more than hurt her...

Those vampires could have easily taken down Jacob in Twilight because he hadn't changed at all...And he would never have been able to save Bella from destruction.

Really are you counting him having friends who are werewolves as a point so lame...Who cares that's not even a point..She doesn't have any real friends besides Angela...come on...She is so antisocial...

And that about his clothes ripping off him...So not hot...cuz he turns into a Big DOG...ewwww fur hairy...ewwww....why don't you make out with your dog and tell me how you liked that...I rather kiss a stoney cold vampire than angry werewolf boy..eeekkk what if he gets really excited when they are having sex and turns into a werewolf that would be awkward...Silly girl team edward all the way there is no way Jacob could be apart of her life that way just think..Obviously you have a fetish for dogs, hairy men and anger issued possessive men...Give me the selfless man any day...Edward left her to save her not ruin her....He wanted her to keep her soul....He's selfless...

Emily said:

I don't even know why you would WANT to have sex with Edward! It would be like shoving a popslice up your...Um...Nevermind!

I give all credit for that "joke" to my best friend Erin! Thanks Erin! Ily

Jazzy Jaz said:

I like choice number one XD I mean if you wanna get laid, at least get laid by a guy whose warm cause if he's cold...I think you see what I'm getting at, I'm horrible I know! But that's something my friend and I discussed I'm sure i'm not the only person to think about it! Anyways, Jacob is way better then Edward, I think Bella is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to OCD over Edward, err, I would like to keep my soul please! Plus Jacob is WAY more romantic! I don't remeber Edward saying anything romantic unlike Jacob whose just WOO! I mean in new moon he was just so...stupid lamb, she got someone smexxii who wanted to date her and she picked the dead guy. Uhm, necrophiliac much? TEAM JACOB FTW! Also Team Blackwater! Just 'cause Leah looks good with Jacob and she's not some mutant spawn freaky thingy made by some crazii girl and some guy who wants to eat his girlfriend! Hehe I rest my case XD

Jazzy Jaz said:

Oh! I forgot to add one thing! Well a few.

Team Edward's best argument is REAL men SPARKLE, WTF!?

Uh, no, I think I'll pass on teh sparkly boyfriend...

Plus Jacob runs around NAKED all the time! So if you catch him changing back into a human and he ain't clothed yet, you got a nice view! Even if it is only for a moment! Plus he's sort of beautiful + smokin' HOT! 108.9 degrees of smexxiness? Why pass that up? What's not to love and if you got drunk with on the beach with him! HELL YEAH! Its a party between two! Am I right? Just act like fools and then in the morning you can laugh it off with extreme hang overs! Plus I'm sure he'd make a good cuddle buddy on those cold winter nights or those rainy days! Can't do that with a man whose cold, hard as rock and DEAD! ._. Okay my point is finally made out I don't think I forget anything this time! I think there are way more reasons why Jacob is better then Edward but the list could go on FOREVER! I'm a die hard Jacob fan! I just feel sorry for him because he imprinted on a monster. I hope Nessie decides to love Nahuel (sp?)and then Jacob can have Leah! >:3 (Let a Blackwater fan dream)

iLiKEDECEMBERS said:

I'm a little offended by some comments xD
Come on!Why should i be acting like a 10-year-old to prefer Edward? In my mind he's totally associated with Pattinson (so cute in the movie-only in the movie).
OK, he's perfect and we all know nobody's perfect but who hasn't wished of being with a person like that, after having been hurt by all those Jacob-type assholes out there? Edward is a dream and every teenage girl (not fool necessearily) likes to dream. I know that such dreams simply don't come true but i totally believe i'm not fool for dreaming.

Sarah said:

I've been Team Jacob forever, and I'm personally sick and tired of girls on Team Edward *gag* just because he's hot. Whatever happened to looks don't matter? What if Edward was ugly? Would all the shallow girls on his team be on Team Edward?? But I do respect the people out there that actually have god reason for Team Edward.

**Team Jacob**

Leah said:

Oh yeah and I totally agree with the umm, sleeping with Jacob or Edward thing. A little TMI here, but sleeping with Edward would be cold, uncomfortable and very painful. Where as Jacob would be soft and warm and gentle because he's not trying to feast on your blood! I'm kinda glad S. Meyer didn't describe E and B's scene at the honey moon... that would be weird.

And yeah, drinking with Jacob at the beach would be so fun! I agree that Jacob would be so much more fun to hang around with because he's so chilled out and laid back, not over-protective and boring like Edward. Honestly I could think of like an endless list of reasons why Jacob's better than Edward. Anyhow... great post!

Leah said:

Oh and BTW

LEAH SHOULD BE WITH JACOB IN BREAKING DAWN!!!

Okay thanks... bye!

Team Edward people,

SHUT THE HELL UP. This is simply a persuasive blog on why Team Jacob fans are what they are. We're not FORCING everyone to be Team Jacob. We didn't put a gun to your head and say your a dumb ass for being Team Edward, choose Jake. Okay thanks.

Okay Team Jake people,
I love you all. I have Jake all over my myspace and people are like "EWWW ARE YOU STUPID???" Um no, I just don't prefer cold people. I could use a space heater. And I hate perfecetion. They say Edward is perfect in the sense that he is perfectly imperfect, yea I don't see it. I prefer someone with flaws. Someone who isn't afraid to make a mistake and WORK to fix it, not get it handed back to him because he's good looking and someone is obsessed with him. And all these obsessive Edward fan girls sicken me. I see one of them and I want to go throw up in the toilet. There's so many it's like AHHHHH GET AWAY, YOU FREAKY GIRLS. They're so in your face about Edward it turned me away even more. I love Edward, but Jake is just, hot. And he's HUMAN. I prefer that thanks. Edward isn't real, vampires aren't real. And neither are wolves. Well werewolves, but they're closer to being real then vamps. And they're much sexier. I mean dogs are adorable as heck. :) My favorite animal. So I mean, hello? Perfect for me.

I'll probably comment again as soon as I find something else to say. : D

Team Edward people,

SHUT THE HELL UP. This is simply a persuasive blog on why Team Jacob fans are what they are. We're not FORCING everyone to be Team Jacob. We didn't put a gun to your head and say your a dumb ass for being Team Edward, choose Jake. Okay thanks.

Okay Team Jake people,
I love you all. I have Jake all over my myspace and people are like "EWWW ARE YOU STUPID???" Um no, I just don't prefer cold people. I could use a space heater. And I hate perfecetion.

Team Edward people,

SHUT THE FUCK UP. Kay thanks. If you were so angry about reading this, why'd you do it in the first place? Second, this blog is not to force our opinion on you. We didn't put a gun to your head and tell you you're a dumb ass for being Team Ed, be on Jake's side. Yes I'm pretty sure all of us have read Breaking Dawn thank you very much. And being on Team Jake is not saying we think he should be with Bella smart ones. It means we prefer Jake. Cause I know I prefer Bella with Edward myself but I'm a Team Jacob fan. If I were S. Meyers, I would have Jake with Leah in a heart beat. :D But I know for myself too I prefer Jake. These teams are more then just who we think Bella should end up with!

And second, Sam didn't 'have' to leave Leah. He could have fought the urge. But the point is this, Sam is not a fighter. Read the books, I mean I know you have. Sam is not a fighter. When the going gets tough, he relies on his pack mate. Life is a breeze for him, I have NEVER heard a time when he actually fought for something. That's what Jake did, he FOUGHT for Bella. I mean it's the thought that counts. Even if Bella is with Edward, Jake still shows that he loves her. That's dedication and I'd be touched that he would do that. Whether she loves him or not, it's his dedication.

Edward just reminds me of my mother, sorry folks. And Bella reminds me of that horrible aunt of mine. Edward is so clingy and obsessed with Bella. And over protective, leaving for her own good. Kind of sounds like a divorce to me. And Bella is clumsy, stupid, obsessive, dependent on Edward, extremely awkward, and to top it all off; I think Kristen did a horrible job in the movie. I mean, she SUCKS. I love Kristen as a person, but she sucks at giving interviews, she can barely speak without stuttering and when she does she looks at the ground or the sky. I just think Kristin didn't help my opinion on Bella at all.

"Sylvia+Maggie":
You're wrong. You need to get some proper grammar first of all. I could barely read what you wrote. Second, he didn't abandon Bella. You're contradicting yourself, if Bella doesn't love Jake in 'that way' then it's not abandoning. Ed KNEW that Bella was obsessed with him, and still he chose to leave. By the time Jake left, Bella had Edward. And she had made her decision so what did it matter anymore? As for the pack, hell yea he abandoned them! But they don't love him. He's not married to them. Even if, I would've left them. They're annoying as hell and horrible. Bossy, controlling, impulsive.

So please, this blog is not to start shit as it already obviously have. This is a place for team Jacob fans to come together and share their opinions.

Aaron wright said:

You missed the most important point! Bella and Jacob build a relationship based off of friendship, and then it grows into more. I would argue that Bella starts with a crush on Edward, and a true friendship between Bella and Edward is SECONDARY to their little romance. A healthy relationship starts with friendship, not a crush! She NEVER has a crush on Jacob. She goes straight from being best friends to realizing that she LOVES him! That is how a healthy relationship forms, it grows. Most of the older folks here, who know a thing or two about relationships, see that Jacob would have been the better choice. There is nothing better than dating your best friend. THAT, my friends, is when people SHOULD marry. It appears to me that Bella married Edward more due to her endless lust for him than actual life companionship.

The argument here is NOT about which team won. By now, we all know that Team Edward wins. Team Edward wins; but that's a "Moot Point!"

Was it the best choice? That's what the debate is about.

I say "no." Jacob would have provided a happier and more fulfilling life. Sure, it would have been a mortal life, but maybe one day you'll realize that how you live your life is more important than how long it lasts.

Btw, I'm a 23 year old guy and I relate to Jacob much more than any other character. He's my favorite character. I too have been on the loosing side of winning a girl over. Girls seem to go for the "sexy" more often then the man of better "character". He's interesting, cool, and a werewolf. If I had to choice between being a Werewolf or a Vampire; Werewolf all the way!

You girls do realize that the Werewolves are the GOOD guys (protectors of the humans) and that the Vampires are mostly evil right (crave humans to eat)? lol.

Best Wishes,
Aaron

Team Edward said:

Jacob is a moron. He hurts Bella too. Most of the time he cant even say Edward he has to use leech and bloodsucker like rude enough? Edward would do anything for Bella he wants her to be happy. Jacob just can't. Edward is always a gentleman. He's so sweet and kind. Don't forget handsome. Also I actually don't think Jacob is actually that hot. I think he looks really ugly with long hair. Edward to good to be true
he's like the perfect guy. He also cares about Bella's safety more than Jacob does. Like Jacob actually let's her go on a motorcycle? What an idiot. Edward would never do anything that is unsafe for Bella if he knew it was unsafe. He also saves her more than Jacob. The conflict with James and Victoria was not his fault. How was he supposed to know? He still saved her in the end. Edward made Bella the happiest ever and she'll stay that way. She could never live without Edward. And the 2 times Jacob kissed Bella was the most idiotic thing ever first he kisses her with his permission and then he pretty much guilts her into kissing him. Like how desperate could he be? how could you even do that threaten to kill himself so that Bella would kiss him?
How mean is that? Im sorry but Edward is the sweetest most perfect guy ever and Jacob is the most annoying selfish guy ever.

Marjolein said:

Totally team edward
why? everything about him!
and by te way. jacob hasn't imprinted on somebody yet, so also not on Bella. When they stick together, there will be a time when jacob imprints on somebody, just like sam imprinted on emily, while he had lea as his love for life.
he'll break her heart, if he wants it or not. So She must stick to edward, thats going to make her happy.
(sorry for my bad kind of english, I'm dutch, you know)

hey all of you what up hey i totally agree with anybody thats say that edward is so much better then jacob becuase jacobe imprinted on bellas daughter so ther is realy no need to pick sides what maters is that every ones happy

hey99 said:

hey what is ur favorite of the 4 books . i personaly like breaking dawn the most

jacob fan said:

OK. first of all jacob is NOT a pedifile. he DOESNT think of renesmee that way. yea sure maybe later on, but NOT right now. I'm definitely team Jacob, because Edward is just so fucking BORING. he never changes, and i personally really don't like the fourth book, because he dooms Bella to never changing too. didn't any of you notice how she's not the same bella once shes changed? shes much more mature and she never makes mistakes anymore. thats not the bella that i like and have been reading about for THREE books. I can't believe stephenie would just change her like that. So bella can go on and have her happy little fairytale with edward, but the series was completely ruined. and jacob and the baby? thats just kind of retarded. i mean, why would she make him imprint on the BABY?? why not Leah? they were becoming friends and they woulda been perfect together.

Kate said:

Team Jacob of course.

4ever JACOB and there's no way u can change it!!!!!!

Cynthia said:

OMG ! People you need to calm down !
This fandom is crazy...

When I first read Twilight I was on Team Edward BUT after reading New Moon and Eclipse I fell in love with Jacob/Bella. Edward became too possesive and had too much control, for me this love story was changing for the worse.

Jacob is way BETTER for her. I know what happens in BD but I'm not going to acknowledge it, for me Bella and Jacob had their happy ending at the end of Eclipse, she stayed in bed with him and left Edward. :)

jakcie said:

OK U MITWE BE HALF RITE BUT HELLZ NO IM ON EDWARD TEAM CUZ HES HOT AND HE LOVESSS BELLA

arazcal said:

Megan, I love your ten reasons...
I proudly admit it I love my boy Jake.

For all you Edward lovers out there don't get me wrong--- Edward has his good points too. After reading Stephanie Meyer's 12 chapters of Midnight Sun I have a new found understanding and appreciation for Edward. One thing I take away from the Twilight series is that Bella is truly a lucky girl to have 2 guys who are such polar opposites vying for her love.
I think that's why I have connected to the series in the way that I have. I remember being Bella's age and falling for 2 totally different guys. Like Bella, I never consciously choose to fall for 2 guys at the same time and after a while (just like Bella) I had to make a choice. It was truly painful.No hearts were spared and I have regrets to this day....

To be honest, the best thing about this article (although it is totally awesome in its own right) is laughing at the inanity of the 'OMGZZZZZ EDWARD AND BELLA R PERFECTTT 4 EACHOVA TRU LOFF 4EVAAAAA!!!1111!!' comments from the Edward fanatics. It just sums up about 90% of the Twilight fandom perfectly, no?

Austin Marii Drummonds said:

edward duh because I have read all the books and Bella loves Edward. Edward is so nice to her and doesnot mean to hurt bella in anyway. But jacob does and he knows that he hurts her and he does not care at all so I am for edward and i will always be on edward's side. I am a cullen until the day I die which is never because i am a vampire.

why do ask said:

This is a nice article..I'm a big fan of Twilight too!

I agreed with austin, edward really loves bella in many ways.

anyone who actually writes ''gosip'' on a website to pepole they dont even know is lame in my opinon.

Dead-eyed-Author said:

Stephanie Meyer's prose style has a power. I believe Edward and Bella are meant to be together

In the book, they establish that Bella doesn't barter her soul
Sex isn't everything.
Edward feels warm to Bella in Breaking Dawn
Edward and bella do laugh a lot of times.

Katie said:

ok Edward left Bella for a good reason! He left because he wanted her to have a normal life. He knew it was a mistake!
ok. I am totally team Edward!!!!

Tianna said:

I've read this post, and I've read some of the posts of the readers responses.

Most are just a bit off topic. This is for TEAM JACOB fans, not TEAM -insert whatever else here-.

Second, the title is 'TOP TEN REASONS WHY JACOB WOULD MAKE A BETTER BOYFRIEND THAN EDWARD'. Do you see a 'FOR BELLA' in there, anywhere? No? I thought so.

And the fact that everyone thinks the person who published this already read Breaking Dawn, when she clearly (I think) stated that it would be coming out at midnight the following (I think, once more, I know, it's shocking) day.

For most people, perfection and all the insecurities that OTHER girls would feel would be REALLY BAD and just plain BORING for other girls. I don't recall the author ever staing that this article was related to or even for Bella in any way, shape or form.

That said, I do agree with everything up there.

The fact that I don't recall the line 'I laughed at something EDWARD said', or anything similar from the book, just 'I laughed at what Jacob said to make me feel better'. Edward would be all 'What's wrong, love?', whereas Jacob would try and crack a joke to draw her attention away from it, whatever 'it' is.

I agree with Tiggy in her points on Jacob being a 'rapist'. He never tried to rape her. You have to remember he didn't know anything about the Cullen's, or vampires in general (I consider him biased, in that area), he is a WOLF, so he would be at least a little aggressive, and he thought Bella would most likely change into something other than his best friend and the girl he loves.

Personally, I don't like Bella one bit (or Kristen, for that matter; she just SUCKS at doing a 'Bella' act). I agree with the 23 year old named Aaron, up there. Im werewolf all the way. And don't even go and point out that he's a 'shape-shifter, not a werewolf'! He refers to them as that, he belives he is that, and for just about everyone else, it sticks better than actually calling him a shape-shifter. Gosh.

I recall him getting a hair cut as well, so I don't think he would be what some are pointing out as hairy. Edward is 'smooth' because he's DEAD so everything pretty much fell OFF because he's supposed to be perfect. Jacob, flawed as he may be, would be a pretty basic guy, because just a lot don't shave anything but their face.

I could probably go on and on about points for Edward, points for Jacob, negative numbers for Bella... but I won't. I think some of you out there will get the point.

**Oh, and for those that think that this article is FORCING someone else's opinion on you, than why the hell did you read it in the first place? I didn't see any line stating 'YOU ARE IDIOTS BECAUSE YOU LIKE EDWARD!'. Nope, dont' remmeber that at all...


***By the way, I'm Team Jacob, so I would vehemently discuss this with anyone if you would e-mail me at w0lfie@live.com or doggielovi1@hotmail.com (crappy addresses, I know, I was like, 10).

nice post...i love Twilight especially breaking dawn.

Maria said:

Okay! I really agree with EVERYTHING you guys posted.
Edwards just to-to...Perfect.I mean really- Come on id feel like crawling under a rock everyminute of the day!

"her own good" Yeah i really dont like edward period.Wich is sad because only one of my other freinds is Team Jacob.....others swtserland or Edward...

He's got a pack of hot beasts for all your friends to date." My freinds-even if on Team edward would so jump on it!
Okay u guys that keep saying 'Jacob did leave' yes he did but i mean he LEFT HER beacuse HE didint want to RUIN THEIR RELASHONSHIP! Yes i know in eclipse he did kiss her-wich the the by was so random.
2!; If he didint leave Bella would still be in eternal conflict

Oh and dont go calling Jacob a mutt i can make a billions of names for edward.
Im happy that he does imprint okay! Bella and Edward CAN be toghter-Leahs not a total bitch(Leahs awsome sam should go die) everyone wins.

twilighttfann#1 said:

first, i would like to say that i am totaly 100% team Edward. i was really trying to understand why some people are team jacob, i mean i still dont, it just doesnt make sense. your points are very true but also very unuseful. jacob like renesme, period. there is nothing bella can do about it. i would never choose jacob over edward! edward is bella's romeo, do you think she would choose anything else but him. some people say that they are team jacob because they understand where he is coming from , when out of nowhere after he liked bella (which he only did because she flirted to get information about EDWARD)came this other guy, the perfect guy,and stole what he had planned, umm ok?
but like how can he, as a best friend to bella, hate someone she loved the most? that just being a bad friend. i uderstand that like he liked her, but if you think about it was she ever his true love? no she wasent, insted he goes and imprintes on her child, i know he can't stop it, but that gross. i would be furious with him if i were bella, he can't just tell her to choose between him and edward and then dissapear. i am sorry but even after reading this i am still and i always will be team edward

I am 100% Edward too.. Edward is a great man and he make his best to saved his girl. And especially I like the way he act. LOL

Anonymous said:

TEAM JACOB!!!I absolutely HATE all those Edward fans. They are so annoying. I just want to cover my ears and start humming every time they talk about Edward's perfection. I completely agree with every single one of these reasons and I can't understand why some people fail to comprehend that Jacob would be way better for Bella. Edward is creepy. He stalks Bella and first he says she shouldn't be near him and then he's following her everywhere asking her to marry him! Edward is a moron who only fell in love with her because of how her scent and how he couldn't read her mind distinguish her from other humans. With Edward, it was hate and fear at first sight. With Jacob, there was love and like at first sight. Jacob and Bella started their relationship as friends like normal people. In Twilight, Bella and Edward only knew each other for a few days and they were already dating! I find it completely unfair that all that Bella did to Jacob after Edward came back was hurt him! Edward tore her apart and it was Jacob who put her back together. I completely agree with every comment in here that was made by a member of Team Jacob. I really hope that Team Edward sees my point. I'm on Team Jacob. If you have a problem with that, deal with it. And, in case you were wondering, I'm 12 years old. Down with boring, overprotective Edward. TEAM JACOB FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!

Anonymous said:

I really don't understand why Team Edward is making comments here. If they want to brag about Edward, than they should do it to someone who cares. I really appreciate it to whoever wrote this site and I hope Team Edward is succesful in catching her point. In case you were wondering, I'm the same person who wrote the previous comment.

Anonymous said:

Some people are really stupid! These people are saying that if Bella chose Jacob, he would have imprinted on someone else and break her heart. Everyone who thinks that should read this comment. If Jacob would have imprinted on Renesmee, than why would he imprint on someone else?! If Renesmee was truly meant for him, than why would he imprint on someone other girl?! It makes no sense! Every time I read a comment saying this, I groan. And another thing is that some people say, ''Haven't you read Breaking Dawn?'' Well, in case you were wondering, Team Jacob doesn't care what happened in the stupid book! Whatever happened in that book, happened. And we don't care because we're Team Jacob and we're proud of it! Consider this comment as an addition to the previous ones, which were also made by me. I have so many other things to say about how much I hate Edward and how boring and overprotective he is and how Jacob would have been better for Bella, but I don't have the time. Down with Edward Cullen. TEAM JACOB FOR LIFE!!!

Erlin said:

Hey! If I had two choices for a partner - an Edward kinda guy / Jacob kinda guy - I'm ALL for Jacob kinda guy :D He makes you laugh. He gives you your space. He accepts you for who you are. You can be silly/talk silly/act silly around him. You need not put up such a front with him. You can watch B-grade movies and still enjoy the stupidity of the storyline with him. He's really fun to hang out with! Jacob kinda guy just clicks with me :) I'm all for TEAM JACOB :D. *I think I've just described my husband - so I already have my Jacob in life* ;>

Rowan said:

Thank goodness - I totally agree with all the points you brought up. I think the reason Jacob seems like he'd be a blast to drink with on the beach is that he reminds me of so many guys a know - maybe a little obnoxious, but deep down very sweet-hearted. Not to mention loyal, forgiving, caring, and freaking hilarious. He's got more personality than boring, angsty old Edward any day. Honestly, at 108 years old, Edward should not be this absurd.

As much as I want to see Jacob happy though, I think Bella doesn't deserve him. What she puts him through, by her own selfish desire to keep him around like a puppy dog, is absolutely shameful. I've seen girls do this to sweet guys in real life, and it always scars them. For all you guys who complain about Jake being arrogant/obnoxious/a jerk, this is what happens when people get hurt like he did.

i'm totally team jacob! i mean ok ed really loves bella but don't you think he's a bit tooo exagerating i mean he is so predictable jacob is her best friend he listents to her like edward but still gives her his own opinion won't you guys rather be with someone that treats you like something real not like some glass doll that is about to break it's really annoyng!!!!!!!!
totally agree with the site ;)

Maria said:

this is a perfect article. and i am team jacob, edward is like alot of other people said boring!! i mean hes cool and all but jacob just seems a better choice. and if you actaully read all the books like me and re read them youll catch that jacob mentions to bella that SOMETIMES THEY DONT IMPRINT. and he probably never would of since bella woulda picked jacob and he cant imprint on his daughter. geesh chill out people. and plus personally i woulda enjoyed seeing JACOB LEAVE BELLA if he did imprint. haha.

FINALLY!! MY KINDRED SPIRITS!! I completely agree that Edward is boring. Jacob made me laugh through the books and he just sounds absolutely adorable. And I don't want my boyfriend or husband to be prettier than me. Jacob is just so down-to-earth, open and he's truthful! I saw the movie before I finally read the book and Jacob had my attention when he first showed up but had my heart when he showed up at the prom. Some people says he's rude but COME ON!! How nice are you to that person who STINKS?! Exactly.


GO TEAM JACOB!!

I totally agree with everything you said...Jacob is so much better than Edward!
:D

Lauren said:

So many comments already, but I feel like I have to exert my opinion. I agree, agree, agree. For the record, Edward is too good to be true. And, he isn't true. But come on, guys, who in their right mind would date a self-loathing vampire who's hot but cold,immortal, and you would have to endanger life as you know it to have him? No. No one. With Jacob, it's a simple yes. Stephenie Meyer thinks that she came up with a perfect balance to Breaking Dawn, but I disagree. Bella is a slut. She pretty much prostitutes herself with Edward, throwing herself on to him at any chance she gets. Excuse the long comment, but I have strong opinions about Twilight. And by the looks of it, so does everyone else. :)

Pam said:

Let's not forget that Jacob is actually in Bella's own age group and cultural/historical time frame, rather than about 100 years older/in the past. So culturally and maturity-wise, Bella and Jacob should of course be a better match.

Thank heaven there are some other people out there that agree with me on this... Team Jacob, all the way! (Let's just throw the 4th book out the window, shall we?)

I am so on TEAM EDWARD but i see your point but jacob could looose his temper for no reason would u rather have a werewolf that could get shot or a stone body where if someone tried to punch them they would get a bruise

I think that edward is overly rated everyone sees him as perfect cause jocob on the other hand was not as visual in the twilight movie but in new moon he is most present and dont you start with eclispe jocob&bella were both the bell of the ball so edward lovers stop hating on jocob he will make bella happier that she could ever be in a life time with edward.

KASSY said:

I THINK SHE IS RIGHT JACOB IS A BETTER MAN FOR BELLA BUT IF SHE DONT WANT TO TAKE HEM THEN THATS ON HER SHE IS THE ONE MISSING OUT JACOB IS A SWEET HART BUT DONT GET ME WRONG SO IS EDWARD BUT HE IS ALWAYS TRYING TO BE ONE TOP OF THING AND KEEPING BELLA ALIVE THAT HE REALLY DOSE NOT HAVE MUCH FUN LIKE JACOB I AM 100% ON JACOBS TEAM FOE LIFE!!!!!

Damn right Jake would make a greater boyfriend than Edward. Like, a million times better.
And I agree with all ten. Especially number one! LOL.

Because when Edward did that to Bella, he almost killed her afterwards.

Emily said:

Now, now now.
I agree with most. But she doesn't have to kill herself and become vampire.
Other than that I agree and the second time you read this series it goes from the greatest thing you've ever read to the most awful peice of litterature you have ever fallen in love with.
It sounds like one of my blogs, it's bad.
And out of curiostiy, what do you Edward lovers see in him at all? His beauty? Ew.

*jess* said:

OMG! I LOVE jacob hes sooo hot and cute. I mean why would you rather have an icy cold bloodsucker insead of a warm, sweet, caring, etc. kind of guy. i'd rather kiss a dog than a boyfriend that just wants to drink your blood. And by the way all you edward fans REAL men don't sparkle!!! TEAM JACOB!!!

alayna said:

i love him i think about jacob all the time he is so nice if i was bella i would pick him not edward but every one on edward side is crazy he left her jacob saved her when she dived off that cliff the movie twilight new moon made me cry 3 times so ya so like jacob left her to but ya i would 4give him he is so SEXY!!! TEAM JACOB 4 LIFE!!!

Sage said:

Okay, I have great respect for Bella's choice. The author of this blog was just expressing her feelings. She was not trying to convince anyone of anything. And Yes, Im SURE she has read Breaking Dawn. Just cause Bella chose edward does not change her loyalty to Jacob. And to you people who are like "Eww! Jacob and Renesme!!" I do not think that that is gross. For all you hypocrites who have supposedly read the books should know that Jacob would be Renessme's best friend for ever and of course she would date other guys, (Jacob actually says this in Breaking Dawn) when Renessme went through heartbreak, Jacob would be her shoulder to cry on. Then she would realize he was the one for her, It is like that Taylor Swift song, "You belong with me". I don't appriceate that the Team Edward fans say that "People only are on team Jacob because Taylor Launter is hot." That is not true. Some people actually are hard core Team Jacob fans.

No on has to agree with me.
Im just Sayin'

Memory Exercises book said:

these are indeed the top 10 reasons.But i can also think of a few more.but they will not be in the top 10 list.

Joy said:

Personally, Edward made me laugh with his humor more times than Jacob did with his in the saga. Saying Edward and Bella never laugh or have fun together is nonsense. One example: the honeymoon. (Yes, I know this article was written before BD came out, but recent comments are still agreeing with these points, which are rather absurd to begin with.)

For example, judging on who the better boyfriend is based on what kind of car they drive, and that Jacob can fix your car for you. Because every girl is clueless when it comes to cars, right? (Btw, it's been mentioned that Edward spends time with Rosalie out in the garage, helping her fix or tune the cars. Just because it's not his hobbie doesn't mean he's completely useless.)

If that's not shallow enough, you also say that "he's got a pack of hot beasts for all your friends to date", and that "his clothes explode off". Um...congrats? I wouldn't want a boyfriend who goes around flaunting his muscular bod to the world. And if I was his pack I wouldn't want his girlfriend's friends all up on me either. Oh, and Jacob is better because you can get laid and he's a better drinking buddy? I know where your priorities stand...

I just can't forget - as it always makes me laugh when people say this - that Jacob is 'warm'. Sorry to burst your bubble, but he's not 'warm'. He's burning hot! If there wasn't a blizzard outside 24/7 you'd die of heat exhaustion cuddling up to him. Yes, Edward's body is ice cold, but it has it's good points, just like Jacob's burning hot body has it's bad points. People who don't see this, and I'm sorry if you are one of those people and are offended, are ignorant.

You say Edward is perfect. No. He isn't. Only Bella sees him as perfect. Bella sees him as perfect despite his flaw, just like Edward sees Bella as perfect despite HER flaws. There's a famous quote that goes, "Nobody is perfect until you love them." Edward is stubborn, an overreacting idiot, and, yes, he can be quite controlling (like in Eclipse). He only wants Bella safe, even though he goes about it the wrong way. But at least he begins to realize that he's wrong, and he works to compromise with Bella instead. He actually learns from his mistakes and cares for Bella's happiness no matter what pain it causes him in return. Jacob's not that noble. And being noble is a trait I admire more than many others (my opinion, of course). Do you think Jacob's perfect? Jacob manipulates Bella to get what he wants, uses all her best qualities against her just to win. He thought of Bella being hurt just to hurt Edward (that really bugs me). He was arrogant and selfish and manipulative next to being the best friend. So Jacob ain't that perfect either. Both Jacob and Edward have their share of good and bad qualities, like everyone else.

About the "abandonment" issue. Edward did not leave her in the middle of the forest. She was right by her house, it was in eye-sight, and she went off in the forest by her own choice and got lost. Not Edward's fault. You don't like that Edward left to protect her from himself, from all the monsters of his world? You rather he'd stayed and risked her life all the time? I'm glad selfishness is your idea of love. The definition of love is that you would sacrifice your own happiness for someone else. Edward was miserable while he was gone. He had it worse than Bella, but he stayed away, hoping Bella would find someone like Jacob and move on and be happy. He had no idea she'd go through such a depression. Even in Eclipse, he was willing to let Bella go if she chose Jacob. And he would never hurt Jacob because he knows that would make Bella unhappy, while Jacob would have killed Edward the first chance he got. I admire Edward, and a lot of people have a problem with his 'self-loathing', but I understand it. He's been through the most dark times than anyone in the series and he still keeps moving, trying to do what's right. That's impressive.

Okay, so Edward's a vampire and for Bella to be with him she'd have to leave her family behind and get rid of her soul. Well, I don't believe that vampires lose their soul as long as they're able to think and do things willingly. They crave human blood, that's the circle of life. But since they can think for themselves and can resist if they so choose and they all have different personalities, then there is no way they don't have souls. So Bella is not sacrificing her soul for Edward. Besides, Edward was dead set against her becoming a vampire, too. It was one of the things him and Jake had in common. But it was Bella's choice, and she can do what she wants. Isn't that one of your whole other arguments, that Edward shouldn't control her and always win? Well there you go, he didn't. And if she had to leave her family behind (her parents, really), it's a sacrifice that she would have to choose to make. I would've made it, and I have more than just parents to think about (but that's another story).

If Bella had gone with Jacob who's to say they would have been happy forever? There was always that unknown of whether Jacob would imprint. And when he did, it would be just like Sam leaving Leah for Emily, and Bella would be heartbroken. Yes, we know that without Renesmee Jacob wouldn't have imprinted, but they didn't know that, and so that was still something to think about. Not to mention there's no guarantee their children wouldn't have been werewolves - not something most parents would want for their children.

In any case, Bella becomes a vampire, Edward is now soft and warm (not burning hot, but the perfect temperature), and they get to sex it up all night long, forever! Sounds better than needing to buy the exploding dog-boy new clothes every time he gets angry...

Now, I'm not saying you have to like Edward. But, as the comments go, you don't have to be rude to those who do like Edward. I like Jacob. Don't love him, but I like him. My sister and best friend are both Team Jacob, my oldest sister and I are Team Edward, and we don't slam each other with stereotypical insults. It's all a matter of personal preference. Every person is different and likes different things. Some will go for Jacob, the jokester, hot, bad boy. Some, like myself, will go for Edward, the dry humored (my favorite kind of humor), noble, sexy gentleman. And it doesn't make anybody wrong or stupid. But if you're going to bash something/someone then at least get the facts straight, and make sure you're not being as shallow as the "10 year old, brainless Edward fan-girls" you stereotype others as. (And it also goes the other way, too, for the Edward-fans that read this and are guilty of the same things to Jacob-fans.)

ShadowFox1119 said:

I'm very Team Jacob and I agree with MOST of the things in this article (some of the reasons are kind of silly, but who am I to judge?). Yes, before anybody tries to point this out, I do know what happens at the end of "Breaking Dawn" and, to that, I just have one thing to say... I. Don't. Really. Care. I still think Bella and Jacob could have belonged together perfectly if certain events did not take place. The only reason they do is because the author writes it that way (and I respect that), but that doesn't stop me from having my own opinion.

And it's not like I completely hate Edward. I actually feel kind of sorry for him and there are some parts of him in the books that are cute, but to me he's just... Meh. And I'm also not blind to the fact that there is a large part of Bella that really does not deserve Jacob, but that doesn't mean that she could not be redeemed. Jacob, since he loved her so much, probably would have given her another chance. He always seemed to before.

Team twilight!!! said:

Okay.......I ADOR!!!! Both Edward and Jacob but I think this blog was written when just the 1st book was out cause seriously???? Where the heckvdo u think the baby came from is Edward and bella can't have sex? Yeah and FYI Jacobs blood isn't "warm" is boiling hot! It is almost a worse as having freezing cold skin. So there is alot more I could go on about like Bella never being as " pretty" as Edward (which is obviously not true in breaking dawn) ahem.. Or " competting with Edwards sisters um Alice is second best friend (nxt to Jacob) and her and rose are well becaming friends. Plus since bella is a vampire she is technicaly more like sisters with Alice and rose. So any ways I think the problem with this is cause it is out dated to no hard feelings lol :-)

much-anticipated (if you're like me and have the literary proclivities of a 14-year-old girl) fourth book in her vampire romance series Twilight comes out at midnight.

If you haven't heard of Stephenie and the Twilight cast of characters, you've probably been pretty spaced ok so why would you write thihs? Im assuming you have read Breaking Dawn and if you haven't I STRONGLY advise you to becaues I hate to break it to you honey but Jacob gets a life eventually and GETS OVER HIS OBESSESION FOR BELLA! Please know all the facts before you make some ignorant list that proves nothing and is completely false. It just makes Edward more irrisistable because BELLA CHOSE HIM! Get over it.

Finally! In my whole group of friends who have read the book, every single one of them is all for Bella to be with Edward. I don't mean that I'm not happy with the outcome of Breaking Dawn, but I've been for Jacob since day one. I guess it's beceause of the fact that when Edward left her for "her own good", he was there to pick up the pieces and put Bella back together, sure he had alterior motives, but Bella wouldn't have to change herself at all to be with him. I mean, I guess it would be akward for Bella, since she thinks of him as just her best friend. My best friend is a guy, and, yeah no, that would never happen, it would just never happen, but I just relly think that it would have worked out for Bella and Jacob if Alice had never come
out. You certainly haven't been reading Entertainment Weekly or Time Magazine. For the uninitiated, here's a primer on the woman now dubbed "The Next J.K Rowling."

If you HAVE been keeping up with your completely addicting, frustratingly chaste young-adult vampire fiction, you know that this latest installment, Breaking Dawn, will answer some pretty important questions. Like, will Bella give up her immortal soul to be able to kiss her boyfriend?

(And yeah, we know that sounds pretty anti-feminist and lame, but Meyer actually has a pretty good defense -– Bella only looks weak because Edward is perfect –- and honestly, the problem of a weak female protagonist is a topic for another day.)

And if you're a real fan, you probably have pretty strong opinions about the whole Jacob-Bella-Edward love triangle.

So do I.

I'm totally on Team Jacob.

I realize this is an unpopular opinion. Both of my editors responded to this statement with a "whaaaaa?"

But, I stand by my preference. Honestly, Edward bores me, and Jacob is a total babe. Maybe it's good that Bella and her fan girls prefer Edward. Leaves more Jacobs out there for me.

If you're in the small minority of readers who agree with me -– and since one fan once told Meyers she wished Jacob would die, I'm guessing there aren't many of you -Click on people's faces in the photo to tag them.

Herecomesthesun said:

*There are some spoilers for people who haven't read the books

It's cool to see more Jacob fans around. My sister and niece along with myself are all Team Jacob (You're not alone). Team Edward people want to know why, here are my reasons.

1) He's approachable
2) He's not rich (which makes him seem more within reach)
3) He's funny
4) He takes care of his Dad (which is admirable)
5) He can brighten up a dreary situation (ex. New Moon)
6) He's not perfect (even though when you really look at Edward he's not either but all the descriptions of him being perfect made me feel different about him. I don't hate him though)
7) He's creative (made the wooden charm instead of buying it in the store. Of course Edward is creative as well but it really told me something about Jacob to have him make something for her).

And those are just some of the things I like about him without even mentioning his ripped abs(which are nice but if he had a physique more like Edward's I'd still like him). For me being Team Jacob doesn't mean that I'm still hoping for the impossible, it just means that his character was my favorite and I was in his corner all the way(since I was first introduced to this series via Twilight movie). I hoped that they would be together, but in a story like this where Edward and Bella were already established in the first book it wasn't going to happen.

There was this guy on Amazon.com who said that he felt he was always being told by the book that Edward was this or that but he felt like he was shown who Jacob was by his actions. Jacob promised he'd be there till her heart stopped beating and he was. His dedication to his love for her that was slowly sinking really moved me. He tried so hard to save her life and their connection. There are not enough "He's a mutt! He's a dog! He smells! Rapist! Pedophile! posts in the world to erase what I know about Jacob Black to be true. And I doubt that that kind of talk is going to dissuade anyone of us who appreciate him (Or any talk of how much Twilight/Stephanie Meyer sucked for HP fans is going to change the Twilight enthusiasts).

EDWARD is supposed to be dead, ewe Dx i wouldn't want to date someone whos supposed to be 106! thats justt gross Dx atleast if you were with jacob you wouldn't have to live forever! at least jacob gets older! erg , seriously. bella is pretty stupid for choosing edward. what makes me hate bella is that she WANTS to become a vampire... seriously, being a vamp must SUCK . woohoo, you get to live forever... NOTT!! . this is stupid , jacob deserves someone better than bella. & yes i know he imprints on bella's daughter, but whatever.. he deserves someone who is actually smart. unlike bella. nuff'said this timee xx ; team jacob f&a

Every one want to make their friendship according to their choice. No one can pressured to him to do friendship according to their choice. Some one have a way to make friendship with everyone, some one have nature to that they will make friend you today and and next day to other one. Mostly this type nature find in girls.

I just want to say that IMPRINTING is total bullshit! And to have the very lovable, dedicated Jacob Black imprint on the daughter of a girl that broke is heart is just plain demeaning. I mean seriously, imagine explaining to your daughter that the guy she is *air quotes* supposedly in love with was pinning for her own mother!

Come on SM! You have got to be kidding? Why would you write about the fact that Bella has this holy choice about being with the man she loves, that her choice will shape the rest of her life, yet she loves them both?

Bella is a spoilt brat, who thrives on the fact that while she's in love with Edward, she likes to have the dark skinned puppy run after her! Yeah, I totally just went there! Funny how the best friend, who is lovable, honest, loves her the way she is, is treated as a second class citizen.

Is he because Edward is loaded and Jacob is poor? Funny how it wasn't the vampires who were running around in rags but the poor native kids!

Funny how SM glorifed being a vampire with there shiny sparkly skin, bags of money, cars, sweet houses ect, Yet when it came to Jacob the guy's dad can barely feed him and he has to fix cars around the rez for money, and he's only 17 for crying out load!

I mean come on, a guy that is willing to look after his dad whose in a wheel chair, his mum died, his sister's abandoned him... you really think a hybrid little girl, who will have everything her leechy little heart desires can stand by an Alpha... no I'm sorry THE ALPHA... the chief?

And coming to a mate for Jacob, why in the world would SM make Leah Clearwater a shifter? Why introduce her as the heartbroken, angry girl, have her break away from Sam to follow Jacob and I say to him I quote 'Your worth following'? Why would she then have them bond and the BAM! Baby LOVE!

It is so unbelievably horrible, the worst ending I could ever imagine! I am team CHOICE!

Love is given by ones free will... I can't be taken or forced... Magic cannot be the tie that binds and binds!

Love is strong than magic! Sam douche bag Uley was just too blind to see.

Bella should stay with Edward because she needs that kind of guy! Plus if I was a vampire... there is no way in hell I would stay a virgin for 108 years... calloused hand much? They totally belong together....

Nessie should have ended up with Nahuel and Jacob and Leah should have healed each other the proper way, the right way!

There is no pleasure without pain. and no gain without loss!

Blackwater love forever!!!

SM is do adore all your characters truly, but the imprint of Jacob on Renesmee is just wrong! Even poor Renesmee will never feel love properly. I mean its like being promised to someone as a child... its down right creepy and borders on child abuse...

I loved the books up until BD!

I will continue with morbid obsession with FanFiction until you come out with a Jacob/Ren/Leah novel, on how Jacob breaks the imprint and Ness falls in love with Nahuel and Leah and Jacob fight until there blue in the face and admit they love each other!!!!

Until then... I hate you!

I don't care who you side with I'm with Team Bella. If you read Eclipse and Breaking Dawn she acts and is soo torn between the two. I mean how many times has she kissed Jacob a few. How many times has she insisted on spending time with Jacob. A LOT. I don't think she should have gottenb married period.
