At first I thought it was his "bad boy" nature. And I wondered why I found him so appealing. But really, he is not a bad boy in all the senses of the word. He does not womanize. He drives a Volvo. Sure he drives too fast, but he can also fly. He is highly available... I thought then that maybe it was that he was somehow dangerous but holding himself back...
But then I realized what Edward has that we want... and it's not the handsome face or six pack abs. He, like every person, has a dark side, which could really hurt the person he wants to be close to. In fact, he struggles with this side of himself openly. In reality, the struggle is not so obvious, because it is not a matter of DEVOURING someone you love, but in some ways, it sure feels like it. So what does Edward Cullen have that no one else does unless they are truly magnificent?
He has control over his dark side. No matter what, he would never hurt Bella he would only protect her. But he almost does at the end. And that makes me wonder... What is the equivalent of that vampire bite at the end? If he changes her into a vampire, so she can be with him, does that mean she will be happy?

Yes, it does. Have you not read the entire series?
I do not understand the appeal of Edward Cullen. He has no defined personality, bar a stalker-like desire to control every aspect of Bella's life.Creepy.
Oh, but of course every teenaged girl *loves* Edward, because he's *gorgeous* and *rich* and he *loves* Bella.Big deal! His is a relationship based on the fact that Bella smells good and he wants to eat her.What a solid foundation!
