How Twilight is Good For Everyone

I read all the Twilight books, and even the online version of the next book. And I must say, I think they teach teens a lot, and the rest of us who have read them. Look at the example Edward places for Teens, especially teen young men! He is the perfect gentleman, he will not have sex with Bella until he marries her, he protects her even when it means leaving her to help her. How many young men, or old men, do you know that would act like that for the woman they love? He is very patient, waiting over 100 years to find the love of his life, then he waits longer to marry her and truly take care of her. He doesn't act like he is better than her, he just acts like they are a team, a team where he treats her like a princess. And Bella is an example as well, even when things are going bad, she is thinking of others instead of herself. She overcomes depression, albeit a little bit dangerously, but she overcomes it in order to make the lives around her better. She helps her friends and family, and protects them. She trusts the man she loves, and forgives him for the things he has done to hurt her. I think we could all use a little of that, its called FORGIVENESS people! They have a true romance and love, its fiction, I know, but its something to learn from. Edward has had plenty of time to think about how to treat a lady like a lady, and he does one good job of it, so guys...read the book and take notes!
1) Sex is for marriage...end of story! If Edward can wait 100 years, you can wait too
2)Woo your woman, treat her like royalty....this will pay off greatly
3)Show your woman she can trust you...this will pay off greatly too
4)Don't make yourself more important or smarter than your woman....this will help you to keep your woman
5)Be Unique, if wa all wanted the same thing there would be one guy walking around in clone form

Ladies: take notes too
1) If he proves himself trustworthy.... TRUST HIM, don't spy on him
2) Let him be a gentleman...it doesn't belittle you, you are worth it
3)Pressuring him into sex doesn't make you a better woman...It makes it harder for him to respect you
4)Don't belittle yourself, as you can see in Twilight, it only confuses them more
5)Take the compliements from your man when he hands them out, don't deny them... He picked YOU for a reason

This is a great series, sometimes you can forget they are talking about Vampires when its the imporatant life Lessons you're focusing on. There is a lot of misguided information being fed to kids and teens and the rest of the people in this world, and our current state is proving it! Abstinence is not old school or uncool, it will save your future relationships and your sanity!
