Of course Jacob is hot, the only thing that I don't like about him is that he forced himself on Bella. If he really loved her, he would respect her decisions. He would just like her to be happy.
When Edward left Bella, I was so upset with him. I couldn't understand why he would think that she would be better off without him. I mean the other vampires knew they were connected, and to leave her alone vulerable was just a bad decision.
I mean I know he loved her so much that he didn't want to hurt her, but to leave her behind with wolves, who could potentially be dangerous to her because of their connection.
So I was wavering through New Moon, whether or not I wanted her to be with Jacob or not, but once Edward came back and told her his reasoning, and after Jacob forced himself on her, I chose my side.
Team Edward Baby! :}
