When Edward left bella in New Moon who do you think had a harder time, Bella or Edward ?
Edward had to leave with this guilt of hurting the one he loves. He was all alone curled up into a ball of misery, isolated himself from all humanity.😭
Bella on the other hand was leaving with a whole in her heart that Edward doesnt love her anymore.She was going insane..jumping off the cliff..bike riding n all,😆 if Jake dint come to help her i shiver at the thought of what could have happened to her😕.She was better off than Edward in a way coz she had Jake.
So who do you think had a harder time?

hmm well we can't really judge accurately... because the book only gives a very detailed account of bella's feelings and her point of view.
but i'd think it was bella, because edward did not think that she no longer loved him.
whereas bella had to live thinking that edward no longer loved her even after all the time they spent together.
so yeah it'd be bella.

this is actually very tough....to say because Bella had jake to run too while Edward had no one...he left his family to keep Bella out of danger!!! He was alone isolated, so i'd guess it was him that had it hard then bella....and how easily she then falls in love with Jacob....i mean Edward loved bella, but she then falls in love with Jacob....which got me really ticked off...even though it wasn't really her fault understanding her circumstances.

Hmm..thats hard! I think Bella coz i agree with the point made above..that Bella had to live for those months thinking that Edward didn't love her..and that hurt! But then she had Jake!

However, then i think about Edward..and like he had no one at all! He had been alone for 109 years and after all that time he found someone whom he truly loved but had to leave her...and he was left alone again...and this time he wasn't even with his family!

Hardest Qns Anu! Can't really decide who had the hardest time of all.
For Bella, she lived for months with the thought that Edward doesn't loves her anymore. But Jake came in and made her smile again like she used to. Since the book is from Bella's POV, it does tells her pain.
On the other hand, Edward had to live without Bella knowing that he loves her immensly, yet he has to stay away from her. What could be the most painful thing after all this? He didn't even have much of his family's support as he wasn't with them then. So I have to say Edward had the hardest time of all.

i think edward had a harder time because...
one: bella was convinced edward didn't love her, he had to lie to her but she fell for it....and living while knowing your loved one believes you don't love them is harder....
two: bella had jacob like you pointed out, edward was all alone, no one understood his pain....
three: he knew it would be painful but he went with it, however long he could...
i believe edward was the one undergoing the harder times, he didn't have anyone to comfort him, all around him his family members were happy with one another and he once again was the one without the partner....he loved her but couldn't be with her, found himself the sole reason for her in pain....
being edward was more difficult than undergoing the pain that bella underwent...
as always

Sukhi u came up with some good points. Edward had loved Bella truely and deeply throughout. To be honest after reading New Moon I had my doubts if Bella's love for Edward was really love or mere attraction.😕 Like Edward says "everything about me invites you in". Bella later on is shown in dilema, as to whom shud she pick..edward or Jake. While Edward had been alone throughout the phase of seperation, if he wanted he could go to Tanya for consolation/comfort. But poor thing decided to stay away from all humanity, hurting himself to the extreme😭

I completely agree wid u Leena..U stole my thoughts..
Bella..mst hv thot tht Edward dint luv her nymore..which must hv hurt her a lot..bt she had a companion wid her hu hd helped her n Bella cud share her feelings to sum1 atleast..
Meanwhile Edward waited for 108 yrs to find his love and now tht he fell in luv wid Bella..he thot Bella is going to die..Bella ws his life now..and he ws ready to die n leave his whole family for Bella n Edward's perspective is not even desrcibed which makes me think abt the pain and the trauma he hd to go thru
Btw Nice topic..😛
