Listen, both Edward Cullen and Jacob Black are abusive to Bella but in different ways with different intentions.
Edward is legitimately concerned for her safety so he leaves her in NM, and then he hides information from her in Eclipse- which causes her to have a panic attack when Jacob tells her anyways which demonstrates he was justified in not telling her. He doesnât want her going to see Jacob, which is 18% because heâs jealous and 82% because they (the Cullens) literally cannot protect her over the boundary line and once Jacob proves he can Edwardâs like bye have fun please be safe call if you need me, and she does. Which brings me to why she calls. She punches him in the face for forcing a kiss on her. And real quick, can we talk about how her dad fucking laughed? He LAUGHED and his DAUGHTER getting sexually assaulted by her friend because he ships them. Fuck him and anyone whoâs done that or shipped that- you suck, apologize immediately.
Jacob Black is the epitome of a white boiâ˘ď¸ (though heâs native american): Heâs literally a child??? She seems him as a child??? Heâs two years younger than her and theyâre childhood friends (kind of) and when Ed leaves, heâs left to help pick up her pieces and he does a good job, except encouraging her adrenaline cravings and giving her the dangerous idea to JUMP OFF A CLIFF (I get that wasnât his intention but,,, she wouldnât have done it randomly had she not known about cliff diving) and at the end of New Moon when the Cullenâs come back he basically says fuck you to Bella, AND TELLS HER DAD ABOUT THE MOTORCYCLE TO GET HER GROUNDED SO SHE CANT SEE EDWARD. Abusive? I think the fuck so !!! (And sure you can compare that, loosely, to when Ed took the battery out of her car so she couldnât run off and see Jacob âbecause itâs too dangerousâ but she forgave him immediately, one, and two, it affected her for,,, one night?? not a month+???) And then in Eclipse he sends her these angsty ass responses to her note to make her feel bad, encourages her to come to the res without talking to Ed and, yes, heâs not her father, but theyâre living in a really dangerous world?? and heâs literally the love of her life and sworn protector heâs violently uncomfortable with her going somewhere he canât save her so like,,, she should really be more considerate of his feelings throughout the entire series but đ¤ˇââď¸ go off I guess. AND THEN this is the part that sparked this rant: After hearing theyâre engaged, Jacob tells Bella heâs going to kill himself in battle if she doesnât prove she loves him so he FORCES her to kiss him, and she hates every second of it and is trying to pull away and he forces himself on her, and after he leaves, sheâs crying? And thinks itâs her fault? What the fuck?
So in conclusion, Edward demonstrates good intentions that we, as mortals not living in Bella Swanâs shoes, can barely understand, and Bella- who seriously has a death wish- can barely understand herself which is so fucking evident when they get engaged because he literally wonât have sex until marriage (and i get that thatâs tech sexist propaganda but like heâs from the 1910âs) so heâs not using her- he ALWAYS gave her a choice to leave. He always gave her a choice to choose Jacob. He wanted her to be without him even though it would kill him because itâs safer for her. And Jacob, from minute one, has only ever been an abusive piece of shit who thinks heâs entitled to Bellaâs body and affections because theyâre/were friends. Also, a tangent: Tyler and Mike, the two boys who asked her to the dance in the first book, were A LOT but they backed off. Mike pined after her literally like a puppy, cannonly, and he BEFRIENDS EDWARD. BECAUSE THATS WHO SHE CHOSE. SHE CHOSE EDWARD OVER HIM. THEY BECOME FRIENDS. So, in conclusion: fuck Jacob Black, everything he stands for.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, my next one features why imprinting on a young child is NOT creepy (though unconventional) except for Jacob because heâs a terrible person who threw a hissy fit when Bella and Ed got married and planned on having sex, because he believes as long as her hearts still beating, sheâs his, and that was literally stated in the books. And he thinks that the production of their love belongs to him because Bella still owes him for not satisfying his pre-pubescent obsession with a girl in love with someone else.
