I was always back and forth on many things about Twilight, one of them being the fact that Bella was so adamant about being a vampire, it seemed as though she was willing to give up everything for Edward. She was ready to let go of Renee, Charlie, Jacob, the pack, and her friends, but then I thought about it.
Bella spent most of her life taking care of her mother; she had to give up a lot of her childhood for Renee, She never had any friends, and her mother chose her new husband over her.
And living with her mother, being so far away from Charlie, when she finally comes to Forks, we immediately see that she and Charlie are not close. And we see that they barely know anything about each other.
She moves to a new town of people who are already obsessed with her even though she barely remembers them, many people who do not understand boundaries. When she finally gets to school, she is greeted with a rude "joke" from the same guy that kisses her without her consent; many of her guy friends are constantly trying to date her, touching her, etc., and Jessica is very rude.
She’s overloaded with people in this town who do not seem actually to care about her, and what she wants.
Bella didn't have anybody until she met Edward and his family. Edward, at first, is the only person at school who isn't obsessing over her, to her face. I mean, yes, he is insulting, but he is constantly asking her about things that she likes, dislikes, and things going on in her life; he seems actually to care.
And then he saves her, and when he finally lets her into his life, she sees how extraordinary he and his family are; she finally gets some excitement in her life, and she finally gets a life. She becomes close with almost all of them when she learns more about them, how they turned, why they turned, etc. She understands that after they turned when they found each other, they obtained love, parents, kids, family, a family that helps each other, does anything for each other, and is there for each other. As well as seeing them as beautiful, fast, and strong, and we also see that with the packs as well. And I think Bella gravitated more to the supernatural side because, with that, she will get and become what she’s always wanted.

Alice Cullen w/ her Mate Mood board
A pixie fairy in human form 🧚🏻♂️. When ever I read the books and she shows up its always "she danced away, gracefully walked away". She is just the sweetest of them all and just wonderful. I could picture Alice talking her mate out in the forest frequently and just living out her pixie like personality and just not caring about the time or weather. Honestly we all need an Alice in our lives.
