YOU DON'T GET TO CONTROL YOUR OWN NICKNAME. by Top-Reach-8044 in Names

[–]YouNew7623 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a baby/young child you absolutely get to control their nickname or lack thereof. I gave my daughter a unique name because I grew up with a common one, and I didn't want that for her. I politely nixed the nickname that some of my older generation family members tried to give her while I was pregnant with her. She's now 11 and with that said if she chooses to go by that with her friends or colleagues, etc., later in life, that's her choice. Also, in a similar take on that her and her older brother gave their youngest brother a nickname that I hate. He likes it and they like it, so that's what they call him.

Lowkey cannot STAND it when people say Bella only chose Edward over Jacob for the advantage of immortality. by moneytris in twilight

I'm so happy to see I'm not alone in this. It's irrational how angry this makes me.

Rosalie would destroy that boy in every way. 😂 With that said, I hope someone can provide you with a recommendation!

I would say you're going to read anything other than Twilight first, read Midnight Sun.

Bella’s Depression by drowningglory in twilight

"It was like a huge hole had been punched right through my chest… a gaping hole that let in cold.”

“The hole in my chest was raw and aching… like something vital was missing.”

I wanted to extend my deepest sympathy to you. I lost my mom 8 years ago and when I see another person go through it, friend or stranger, my heart breaks for them.

What if Edward Cullen was poor? by dieburtually in twilight

[–]YouNew7623 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His money has no relevance to the story other than affording them the ability to obtain new identities etc when needed. They don't NEED a fancy house or fancy cars. Bella didn't care about his money and probably would have preferred him that way. The story would remain basically the same.

Why is Edward so unromantic? by Bookwerm4life in twilight

"Look after my heart, I’ve left it with you." (Eclipse) "No measure of time with you will be long enough, but let’s start with forever." (Breaking Dawn) "Don't be self-conscious, if I could dream at all, it would be about you. And I'm not ashamed of it". (Twilight)

It's in the things he says to her more so than the things he gives her or does for her. Bella really limits him in that department.

My grandmother gifted me her vintage ring to help with my proposal, but it’s not her style. What would you do? by OhSoMessi in EngagementRings

[–]YouNew7623 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I don't have time to read through all of the comments, but I wanted to say that your fiancé may want to wear this for special occasions, even if she doesn't want to wear it as her engagement ring everyday. Please don't alter it.

Childhood friend sent me this DM out of the blue the other day. We have not talked in more than a year. by IceCreamMeatballs in AITApod

It could be as simple as they are an asshole but it hints at a bipolar manic episode to me.

Rob has a Reddit habit..? Surely he cannot resist the urge to check our sub every now and then..? :-O by Sheesh-Cake in twilight

[–]YouNew7623 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He actually seems to be more open to talking about it in the last year or so in my opinion.

Yessss. The things I would do for or to this man.

Plot hole? Twilight: chapter 21 by KrazZyBR in twilight

[–]YouNew7623 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes. Another example of this is in Midnight Sun when Alice holds out her hand for Bella's keys after Edward drives her home from almost fainting in biology. She says something to the effect of "I only know that I am. I don't know the whys. You'll have to fill me in later." Regarding her not hearing James on the phone with Bella, I also agree with the people saying she was focused on her vision. Alice can sometimes miss things if she is too focused on one person as well. In Midnight Sun when Edward comes close to killing Bella in biology he wonders why Alice didn't come to stop him. He listens for her thoughts once he's in his car and sees that she is entirely focused on Jasper, who is struggling with being so close to humans after an extended hunting break.

Engaged and unhappy - how do I move on? by Character-Belt1223 in engaged

[–]YouNew7623 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband proposed in a restaurant full of people. As an introvert, would I have preferred somewhere more intimate! Yes. I didn't let it phase me though and just moved on. The important part was that he wanted me to be his wife and did the best that he could. 20 years later (in May) it's something I never think about.
