Have you found a Jacob or an Edward?

Can’t seem to find the perfect man? Why doesn’t she notice you? In need of post-break up counseling? Or are you just confused by the opposite sex?

I also found my edward, once. He was exactly like him, only he wasn't a vampire nor did he have those golden eyes, lol. He did like his cars fast, was just as romantic as edward, was extremly good looking like an edward, was deeply profound, yet stubborn, and often "dazzled" me, lol. Currently, I'm going through the "new moon" phases, just like bella, cause my edward left too, disappeared, like he never existed too, literally. So I've gotten closer with a jacob, who is also one of my best friends and is like jacob too, except he is a 2 years older then me, not native american, and he can not fix up bikes, lol, oh and he is not gianormously tall like jacob. So its like I'm literally in Bella's shoes and dealing with the same problem as her: no edward period. Ironically my friend is being all weird like jacob was to bella when he changed into the wolf. Hmmm, art imitating life....weird.

I feel for you, when you say that you are also going through a "New Moon phase." I'm also going through this phase, only my two guys have a mix of the two characters of Edward Cullen and Jacob Black, only I guess "my Jacob" lives too far away to completely comfort me, but he does his best.


I guess, if I had to pick which one is Edward Cullen and which one is Jacob Black, I think that the man that I married resembles Edward quite a bit. He is cold to the touch (sometimes I even shiver when I am touching him just because of the temperature), he does "charm" others I guess that means "dazzle others" (lol), he is pretty mysterious by past and personality (even looks a bit mysterious I guess but I don't want to tell him, just in case he tries to change his black clothing to white, because that will SCARE ME, lol!), and he is very overprotective yet flexible around me (I'm also dating another man and he will keep his distance and not speak about it too much, but he does things because he loves me), so overprotective that he purposely left me behind to go training one morning (this is where I am at my "New Moon stage"). But, he is not a vampire though he could have been but he isn't (he studied Vampirism once but never stayed with it, so I guess that could have considered him a "real life vampire").
I guess my Jacob Black is the man that I am in a long-distance relationship with. He tells me that he loves the warmth than the cold (that's a HUGE similarity, lol), he's more fun and a bit less humorless than my husband is, yet he loves music more than books (my husband loves books than music) so I guess that could be an Edward similarity, but my nickname for him-because he made a nickname for me first-is "Wolfy" because of his personality...he reminds me of a wolf for some odd reason?? Lol. Also his religion will maybe make your jaw drop, but that's his business and not mine to say aloud.

I try not to compare them, so I may only do this once out of ten times, so it's very rare for me to come out with this, because it already seems "unreal" with my guys, how I found them and such. I guess my relationships are not considered "normal," but what ever is "normal" anyway? So, I guess I'm an everyday average, look-alike girl-next-door when I walk out of my house (I call it a "manor" because it's a HUGE HOUSE, lol-try cleaning it some time, oi...) and when I am with my guys, unless you know them and my relationship, then maybe you'll say something (I know my friends did more than once mention it at random in the beginning when I explained it all to them and it took over a day to explain everything; it took that long just to explain how I met one, fell in love, then met the other and who he is also, and how I fell for him too!)

My Jacob

Postby Anonymous on Fri Apr 25, 2008 1:04 am

I found my Jacob BEFORE Twilight series came out.

Now, that may sound lucky, but let me explain. I moved schools my sophomore year, that sucked because first of all I'm shy and had my group of friends from the age of ten. Secondly, when I was moved, it was from a class of 300 to a school of 300. It sucked. I was this city girl who was thrown into the country.

The first day was HORRIBLE. But I still thank god, now almost five years later, I walked into my fourth hour, ready to cry and force my mom to move me back. But there was this guy sitting there saying "New kid! Come sit here!" So I sat there. He was really nice and for someone like me, shy, never had a boyfriend ever, didnt talk to guys, this was wierd for me. We became friends, although we didnt talk outside of school, ( i became a hermit and didnt talk to anyone outside of school at all actually) but my senior year I moved in across the street from him, that was late 05. Ever since then we have been inseperable.

In Nov. 05 he told me that he's gay. That didnt change anything between us, in fact it brought us closer. We are so close that his boyfriend is constantly jealous of me. We cuddle when I spend the night. AND i've been through a few rough times since he's been in my life, recently he held me while i cried. Since then, i call him Jacob, he doesnt understand the reference, since hes a loser and wont read the books, he doesnt read at all actually.

BUT heres the catch. he's my sun. just like jake was bellas. BUT I'm the one in love with him. :shock: HAHAHA... wierd i know. hes the best thing to happen to me, i love him more than i should and thank god, that doesnt affect us, he knows, and hes nicer about it than Bella.

So I do have my Jake, in a way. I just cant have him. But my friend is warm, tall, muscular, and to me, (the warmth especially) make him so much like Jake. Not to mention the fact that he's kept me going during a lot of hard stuff.
sorry for the long rant. [/size][/size]

^^^^^^^^^^^
So he essentially really is your Jacob, because Bella may be in love with Jacob but it's impossible for her to be with him. (Different reasons as to why it can't work, but you understand where I'm coming from.)

Your friend sounds like a really amazing guy. I miss cuddling with my guy friends. :(

I don't know lately I've been thinking of a lot about this boy I grew up with...we met when he was 3 months old and I was 8 months old...and he's lived across the street from me forever. Recently I've just been thinking a lot about how things could have been different if I had gone to school down south with him instead of up north in vermont...Him and I ended up hooking up and high school, he took me to my senior prom, we even tried to have sex once but it just ended up being funny because we've know each other for so long...
Just something to think about that has me kind of confused, because I talked with him yesterday for the first time in a long time and am thinking about visiting him this summer.., I think my boyfriend is noticing too. :( Boo.




I hope things clear up for you, i hate being confused, and love is one of those tricky situations where it sucks the most.

Aw thanks! Luckily, things have kind of straightened out. I haven't talked with my Jacob, so to speak, in a while. And my boyfriend and I are moving in together in the may. (oh my god. hahaha. it is terrifying to me. Not just moving in with him, but the aspect of having my own place.) So, yay! Good stuff, for now. :D

I had a Jacob like happening before i read the series. Whilst in school my best friend was this guy that i used to have a crush on but it turned into friendship. I became really so close to him and talked to him about everything. Although I didn't have a Edward at the time the guy i was with was horrible to me it was that sort of triangle. I loved him as a friend, as my best friend ever but not in the romantic way he felt about me. It was quite horrible really i felt awful about it all but i couldnt handle it.
And now we're not friends anymore and its quite sad really as i loved him alot.

I find subjects like these weird though as i always thought that Edward was perfect in most peoples eyes but especially Bella's. And that finding 'your own Edward' or 'your own Jacob' is more finding someone who holds that massive attraction for you or makes you feel that comfortable not people actually like the characters themselves.

poor humans have lost all their charm thanks to Edward!

I discovered Twilight while with my ex-boyfriend of a year. I made him read the book because when I started to be more romantic he knew something was up. To his demise I confessed it was because of Edward. To which his response was "WTF? EDWARD?!?!" (his best friend is named Edward) (poor unlucky soul) hehe... Unfortunately the constant pressure I put on him to be "more like Edward" was daunting.. haha for him at least. Anyways the story is simple because of numerous issues we broke up. sad face. :(

It was the next man in my life which caught my attention. In my attempt to get over the Ex.. I found my Jacob. Someone the exact opposite of my ex. He is tall, dark, handsome, stubborn, my friend and an overall sweetheart whom I'm convinced would do anything for me and did. In my depression of breaking up with long time boyfriend he was there for me like my personal sun. After like a month of hanging out and flirting he confessed his love for me and has since then tried to make me love him back and now has become bitter and mean. Grrr stubborn. Poor boy made me realize it can't work out because he is a Jacob. (except I don't love him back) We are talking New Moon love here. This realization also showed me I'm still in love with my Edward... aka my EX.

So my question is do you relate your love life to Twilight as I do? Or have I really gone too far? haha :opps:



*WHOA'D* :o i gotta say that, YES, my life is similar to the first two books. if my life were like Eclpise, all hell would totally break loose! anyways, like you, i'm not over my ex, but i try to move along with life. His name is Robbie. i met this other guy last summer named Kou(Jacob), and he really made me feel better about our break up and we connected very well. we really enjoyed eachother's company. i called him "bro" and stuff, and it really bothered him because he was intersted and hoped that something would happen between us. ugh, i hated that i was leading him on, so i pushed him away and got into my breakup depression/pretend-everything's-going-great mode. me and Robbie did get back together, but 2 months ago we broke up the second time around! when i read New Moon, and the reason he broke up with her, and how he suffered, it makes me think of Robbie and cry :cry: . to this day, i hardly speak to Robbie or Kou anymore. i learned a lot about myself when i was with Rob. but who knows, perhaps Kou could've been my "personal sun", but he could never compete with the eclipse. and something i've really learned was that your girls will always be there for you no matter what, my personal Alices! their support's been awesome. it's a lonely world, this world of romance; you can get dragged in so easily and leaving is the most difficult. that's why i'd rather just read about Bella, Edward, and Jacob. and Sam, Emily, and Leah. so many love triangles!

wow...that's really interesting. so you can see it pretty well from Jake's point of view. i hope everything works out for you and your friend. i hope he knows how lucky he is for having you in his troubled life.
