The way Edward broke up with Bella

Hi there! I'm new to this group, but wanted to add something. Don't get me wrong when you read my post, I'm not Edward bashing at all!

In fact I probably love him as much as anyone can, but I just got New Moon yesterday and when I read how he broke up with Bella (and yes, I do understand his reasons for doing so), I couldn't believe how cruel he was. It made me cry. I felt a sense of loss in my heart almost as if he did it to me.

How could he tell her it would be as if he never existed. What a horrible thing to do. To just act like he doesn't want her anymore. He was so sweet with her and did so many endearing things in the first book. His behaviour really shocked me after he was so angelic.

Just something to discuss......I'd love to hear other opinions about it!

I finished the book today and I found it amusing he figured it would be hard to convince her. I mean he must not realize that for a normal girl, most guys that are so gorgeous like that.....well I hate to admit it but it does sometimes make you feel like you aren't good enough. I tend to avoid perfect guys like that, they usually aren't very nice.

But yea Vampbunny, I would have slapped him to Just for horribly leading me on like that.; ▶ Reply to This

Whats meant to be will always find a way!!!; ▶ Reply to This
