Question: New Moon!. Twilighters!? Help!.!?
Re-reading New Moon again and something has confused me!.

The second to last chapter, where Bella and Edward decide to go to the Cullen's house so they can decide on her immortality!. I'm confused about something!.

Bella asks everyone how they feel and Rosalie is the only one to say "NO" because that isn't the life she would have chosen for herself, if given the choice!.

Bella takes everyone else's vote and says "I feel the same about all of you!." The she says she looks at Rosalie and she is looking down at the table, that what she said could be interpreted two ways!.

I'm not sure I understand that!? Explain!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
All of the other Cullens said they wanted Bella as a family member!. Rosalie alone said she didn't!.

When Bella said she agreed with them, she meant that she wanted the other Cullens as family members too!. At the point you're confused about, she just realized that if she agrees with all of them, this means she wants all those who want her, and doesn't want Rosalie, who doesn't want her!. She's unintentionally saying that she wants the other Cullens as family members, but she doesn't want Rosalie!.

This is why Rosalie is looking down at the table, because it sounded like Bella just said she didn't like her!. At least, that's how I interpreted it!.

Hope this helps! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, saying that they want Bella as a vampire means that they want her as family!. When she says, "I feel the same about all of you", since Rose said, "No," Rose took it as Bella saying, "I don't want you as family, either," when it really meant "I want all of you as family too"!. It was dumb of Rose!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Bella realizes that the comment I feel the same about all of you can be taken in two ways because Rosalie voted against Bella becoming part of the family!. that comment could be taken by Rosalie that Bella wouldn't want her to join her family either!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
