I've found my Edward, he's perfect. We've been together for almost two years, but really he's more of a combination of Edward and Jacob. He's a gentleman, like Edward but funny and cute like Jacob and he's 16, so yeah, that's Jacob. But I like to think of him as my Edward.

I like to thank Stephenie Meyer for my unrealistic expectations towards men now...
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:
Ha! No you haven't gone too far. Why? Because honestly I've done the same damn thing! Almost exactly the same story except there was no bestfriend named Edward. LOL...I've actually finally gotten over my ex because I finally realized that I put so much time and energy into trying to fix something that never worked in the first place...meaning it just wasn't meant to be and I was forcing it only making the both of us even more unhappy. We've tried the whole we could still be friends route also, but Mr. Dumbass (that is what I shall call him). Decides that after 2 weeks of us being friends he wants to be my boyfriend again. So we try and fail and do the friends thing repeatedly for another like 2 years and then I came to my realization (just 2 months ago) that I can't deal with it anymore because he is never going to change for one thing and because as I've said...I spent so much time and energy trying to fix what couldn't be fixed because it wasn't broken. And then there was the whole attempting to date my best guy friend issue in the midst of all the ex issues of break-ups and make-ups. Which turned out just the same as yours only I don't love either of them. I love my bestfriend as a friend/family thats it and as for the ex...well he can jump off a cliff for all I care!
So now....I am patiently awaiting MY Edward to come sweep me off my feet and dazzle me forever! _________________ ~<3~I'm a Edward Cullen is Totally Hot...Fanpire~<3~

P.S. Rob is my english muffin ;-]!!!
I'm glad I found my "personal" Edward, but he is more like a bad ass Edward because he doesn't dress up in "preppy" clothes like Edward from the books. He just mainly has the gentlemanliness (I know that isn't a word...sorries v.v') and we've been together for three years *lover's sigh*

Ok not really....but it is true ladies, there are real men out there who can be a gentleman. So you fall for a guy expecting him to be the sun or moon in your life like edward or jacob and your just confusing yourself with expectations. Then you meet the Great guy, whose your friend...seems to be your jacob and ends up to be YOUR EDWARD! crazy right? It happend to me...i thought i was in love with an edward (except he took advantage of my feelings alot) and ends up he led me to a jacob , who turned out to be my edward....He was my sunshine when there seemed to be no light...and slowly i fell in love WITH TWO PEOPLE!! my heart was torn...But i found my true edward who loved, rspected me, and was a real GENTLEMAN! ahh i love him so ....
It turns out i only thought he was jacob leading me away from edward...but he was my edward because a real Edward would NEVER take advanteage of you or lead you astray !
My life sounds like a soap opra lol ........but
I fell in love with an edward and a year later....we got married, ive never been happier !
BTW: My husband read the books before we got married....and he loves them just like me.....and he likes EDWARD the best
I promise...there is an edward or jacob out there for all of you... b/c it happend to me _________________
I know you ladies will at least understand my story My friends here don't really get into Twilight much (sad face) but yea..
Anyway, as I stated earlier, I found my Edward.. only he truly is unattainable. Basically I am in MAJOR like (I won't say love, because I don't think this is really quite the case) and have been with my best guy friend for 2 years. He is my Edward, a total gentleman, very open about his feelings, always protecting me from things.. Etc... My friends and I made a pact when we first met him that none of us would ever date him, because Jake was more of a brother to us then (Ironic his name is Jake, huh?)
Anyway, yesterday we were at the park (a big group of us) and Jake was play wrestling with me in the grass. Anyway, we finally gave up and were just kind of sitting in the grass staring at each other, and the sun caught his eyes. HOLY CRAP. He has brownish/goldish eyes.. but when they caught in the sun they were seriously topaz, like Edward.
I literally froze and my face.. well obviously it must have given my thoughts away because he asked what was up, all worried like. I tried to regain my composure, but I just stuttered and mumbled and got up and walked away, because I was soo close to just leaning forward and kissing him. And that would have been bad.
I just had to tell this story to someone! I can't talk about it with my friends because it's about Jake first off.. Secondly, it involves Twilight, which no one really cares about here. _________________ "You are exactly my brand of heroin"

My life also seems like a soap opera. I think our lives are very interesting, especially in the whole "love field," where we fall for others and what drama we go through, same as romance. It's like a movie/novel all over again for me! Lol.
I totally agree with you about how some people can set expectations. Your husband also read the books?! Oh my! This is so awesome! Mine also read them, too!

I care!! I'll be your new best friend! I have friends that in both real life and on the computer who love the books as I do, one whom is caught with still reading the first book, and another who wants to read the books but cannot find the perfect time to do so (I'm kind of torturing that friend by waving Twilight in front of her face, lol). It's quite easy to make friends all around, I'm sure. So don't feel like a loner!

Topaz eyes are very beautiful indeed. I usually always notice a guy's eyes before everything else.
Your right...a guys eyes are usually what i notice first too! you can always seem to look into a guys true feelings through his eyes
Oh my goodness! and that story was amazing! I totally care about Twilight and we should be friends ^.^
That sounds so hard to have gone through...but i must ask do you find yourself thinking about him at radom moments in the day? Keeping your feelings bottled up for the sake of your friends is fine-but if you truely can't stop thinking about his eyes and how much you seriously like him....your friends should understand when you tell them. who knows...maybe he will feel the same! i wish you good luck with everything ^.^ _________________
^^^ Aww yay, friends!! My friends would never be supportive, because recently the topic was brought up, and everyone was like "yea..no" and I do think about him a lot.. and I'd love to tell him, but I have a feeling it would crush our friendship. I'm about 98% sure he doesn't feel the same about me also.
Our relationship is kind of weird anyway. We are friends, but it seems we either talk about really, really, really deep stuff, or we have ackward two minute conversations.. It seems we are more physical, in the cuddling, playing with hair, play wrestling each other way. It's not really.. sexual at all (at least I know its not from his end).. I'm rambling because its late and I'm tired.. lol and again you ladies (and gents if there are any) I can actually vent to.
So thank you I appreciate it more than you know! _________________ "You are exactly my brand of heroin"

Yes, we can all be friends. I believe that this is why that people start with, "Fellow Twilighter," for we all have tiny bumps that seem HUGE in the road, and we always know how to comfort each other with very wonderful ideas, so we should all be friends here! (If you don't, it's okay! I'm still cool with that too, you know! lol) : ) _________________
