exactly. Ugh, I hate it when people assume Jacob was some kinda freaky pedophile or something. IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!!! (I'm talking to YOU, Lioness Rampant!)

No No... Maybe I didn't word it correctly... What I mean is that while he loved Bella, maybe the reason he couldn't leave was because there was a part of her that even he didn't understand his need for. I think that if the draw (need?) wasn't there, that there would have been a chance for him to not continue returning to her. I think that eventually he would have found the strength to let her go. Not LITERALLY that he was after what would become Nessie.

hey hey hey, geez. if you don't like other people's opinions, deal with it. you don't have to yell at her. besides, no one said anything about jake being a pedo anyways. and it is LIKE that, in some ways to me. Nessie is part of it, she has been from the begining.

You know, it's funny how so many people saw this whole imprinting issue as some sort of perverted/pedophile thing. I never could understand how people could see it that way, especially if they really read Eclipse and Jacob explains what imprinting is and how it works. I don't know - whatever.

I certainly understood it and found nothing wrong with the whole sha-bam. When Jacob explained about Quil imprinting on Claire and Quil only wants her to be safe and happy and when she grows up the whole dynamic would change in their relationship. Bella did ask if Claire had a choice in this and Jacob replied "Of course, but why would she choose anyone else?"

It is the same thing with Jacob & Renesmee. She already has a special connection with him too. Bella even recognized this in BD when she tasted a new emotion - not protectiveness but possessiveness from Renesmee when Bella attacked Jacob. And Edward remarked that he was impressed with Jacob not 'reacting' to the fact that Renesmee would be fully grown in 6 1/2 yrs and Bella said that Jacob does not see Renesmee in 'that way' he just wants her to be safe and happy.

I'm cool with that. 8-)

I'm jumping all over the place - please excuse me, my brain goes a wee bit faster than my typing. :D

can the girl that is imprinted upon decide to not choose the wolf??? what would happen then? or is there some sort of pull that also connects her to him, like destiny?? i think there has to be something pulling her too..

I'm sure there's also a pull there for her. Just like Emily for Sam. I mean otherwise why would Emily stay with Sam when she knew it would hurt Leah. I think it's uncontrollable.

I hope SM would answer these questions with a new set of series of books from either Nessie or Jacob's POV.

Didn't Jacob say that a girl could but it was really hard to resist that level of commitment and adoratian? That it just made sense for the girl to be with the person that would do anything and everything for them.

Sort of O.T., but do you think Leah would imprint with a member of the pack? Wouldn't that lead to a stronger "wolf"... Or would she have to imprint with a plain ole human?
