Unpopular Twilight Opinions that people might hate me for
(This is just a rant and it's been killing me for years!)
Let's just call it like it is Edward was an abusive ass boyfriend- I'm not gonna excuse his behaviour because he is a Vampire I'm sorry.
He literally was pushing and pulling Bella around before they were dating, basically going:
"look, I don't want you around me we aren't good together and I'm a danger, I'm literal walking red flags and will definitely ruin your life, but also I can't stay away from you, you are just so fascinating and I can't get you out of my head so don't leave me!"
For like weeks until he saves her from certain death and he deadass GASLIGHT's her into his adrenaline bullshit. If a man said to me "Well nobody will believe you" given ANY situation, I'm fearing for my life because that is such an abusive boyfriend ass thing to say!
Not to mention the stalking (Yes I read Midnight Sun I know the LITERAL extent of his stalking!) and fucking breaking into her bedroom to watch her sleep, again I don't care if he is a Vampire that makes me fear for my life entirely if I were Bella because that just shows that this man could be ANYWHERE watching me!
Did I also mention him kind of slowly isolating her from her friends at school. If you think about it, all of Bella's female friends (Jessica and Angela) were so hot for Edward, but at some point switched up and distance themselves from Bella when Edward shows up, unless it's lunch. Like I'm yet to see Bella walk the school hallway with her friends and not Edward OR Alice!
Speaking of Alice, look I love her and I love how we as people who love and hate Twilight love Alice; but she is also a bit toxic too....
Let me explain don't boo me just yet!
She has this tendency of ALWAYS doing things that Bella explicitly asks her not to do. Like we play it off as being quirky and cute because it's Alice, but baby girl really knows how to overstep a lot of Bella's boundaries; I'm yet to see a single Cullen take Bella's "No means No" and not turn it into a Yes every single time. Alice is always doing things that bring her amusement and enjoyment like dressing Bella up when we all know that girl barely can crawl in heels, she treats Bella like a literal human dress up doll, and if Edward asked she'd deadass hold Bella hostage so she doesn't spend time with her friend.....oh wait..... she's already done that! When she duped Bella into a sleepover because Edward asked her to in exchange for her pretty yellow Porsche she stole in Italy.
And I fucking HATE the Cullen family as a whole (Except Rosalie and Emmett) like I love them, but I also HATE them in a way because they literally ENABLE Edward's actions towards Bella just because he finally found the love of his life. Like bitch! If y'all don't sit your 109 year old emo son down and teach him about how NOT to treat his girlfriend like a child (the irony is not lost on me saying this) who needs his constant help and protection, like Edward himself doesn't realise or acknowledge how fucking co-dependent Bella is of him.
So co-dependent that when he left her bitch went comatose for MONTHS! Speaking of Edward leaving Bella, can we all just agree that this man crushed that poor girls self-esteem more than a rock slide ever could? He literally gaslit her AGAIN, into believing he was just passing the time with her, that he didn't love her and should just fucking move on. That girl was such a mess she ripped her radio out of her truck until her fingers were bloody from breaking her nails. She stopped listening to music. She had visceral nightmares of walking aimlessly in the woods trying to run after Edward until she ran for so long she fucking forgot what she was running after! She got these intense feelings of panic attacks that felt like her heart was being carved out of her chest so hard she'd hug herself as if trying to hold herself together because if she didn't she fall apart, she was suffering so much she started doing suicidal shit so she could see hallucinations of her ex-boyfriend!
What part of anything I wrote above sounds healthy and not at all toxic and abusive?
And than ONE miscommunication of Jacob's trifling ass telling Edward "Charlie is arranging a funeral" convinced him Bella was dead, like BOY🫱🏾! You could have called Alice! You could have called Charlie! You know, the father of the girl you dumped and left in the woods?! So many things he could have done and he chose to be a dumbass!
And now Bella had to disappear on her dad AGAIN to go stop her dumb boyfriend from committing suicide!
And even when they are back together, he still continues being a terrible controlling boyfriend! Fucking up her car so she doesn't go visit Jacob just because he and his family are racist to werewolves.
Yeah I said it! I'm not gonna ignore Rosalie and Alice making those 'Dog' comments. I never will!
Talking about "Werewolves aren't good company" like bitch! Edward yeeted Bella into some cases because Your man tried to eat her! And Werewolves aren't good company?! She almost died FOUR times and each time was Vampire related; and it was only ONCE with a werewolf (I'm gonna defend Paul this once because Bella just randomly bitch slapped a werewolf with anger issues without knowing it).
Speaking of Wolves! I also hate the pack too. Because of how they treat Leah! I fucking hate how everyone is constantly complaining that Leah is being a bitter bitch and they hate 'suffering' through being able to listen in to her thoughts.
Like can we give the same amount of hate to Sam? Can we do that with Emily too? Because those two are two of three reasons why Leah is a 'bitter bitch' and why do I say that? Well let's go back to the whole Imprinting bullshit real quick!
Like imprinting was explained that when a wolf imprints on someone they will be whatever their imprint wants them to be, whether it be brother, friend or lover. They said it doesn't necessarily need to be Romantic, blah blah blah, so tell me why did Emily (Knowing full well that Sam was with Leah) decide to fucking steal her own cousins man? He could have been a brother figure or even a friend, and the bitch chose to make him her lover....?
Not to mention how everyone ignores Leah's hatred to being a werewolf now because she just found out she will be infertile her entire life, which to her means she will NEVER imprint and will never be over watching Sam, the man she loved and promised to love her, marry and have kids with her, give ALL of that to her fucking cousin! She feels betrayed and hurt and miserable! She has to live through constantly watching how happy Sam is with Emily both visually and mentally through their wolf psychic bond!
And the pack.....think she's the bad guy?! The FUCK?!!!!
Ok I'm done ranting I think.
