One of the most annoying things to me is when you are participating in something your significant other loves and your significant other leaves you in the dust. For example, I know of a couple who, the guy is a total bike rider and loves every second of it. His girlfriend? Not as much. But she wanted to join him n a ride and be interested in what her boyfriend did. So they went for a biker rider and he left her in the dust, by a lot. She was quite put out by this. And she should be. When your significant other takes interest in what you like you better behave and wait.
As we all know Edward is about 1000 times stronger, faster and more talented than Bella and throughout the entire Twilight Saga Edward waits for Bella. When they are walking to the meadow in the first book he walks along side of her and notices that he is walking with her when she knows he could leave her in the dust.
Don’t be left in the dust. You don’t deserve that.

It is very well known that Bella is not coordinated. It’s actually made into a pretty funny joke throughout the book. The very first time we learn about this is during the volleyball scene in the beginning of the book. Bella hits the ball then it hits Mike in the head. Not so good with the sports.
Later on in the book we see Bella going to play baseball with Edward. What is Edward thinking??? Bella can’t play ball, dance or even walk straight without tripping. Even Bella’s dad tells Edward “good luck with that” as they are leaving out the door.
Here’s the thing. Edward doesn’t care what Bella can or cannot do. All he cares about is being with her and sharing experiences with her. He invites her anyway. Bella could have said she didn’t want to go but she didn’t. She was given the chance to say no. Imagine how good Bella felt when Edward included her in something that she knew she wasn’t good at.
Whether or not you are good at something or like something you should still be given the chance to say no. You know, I am not a huge fan of baseball. It is probably my least favorite sport around but if my husband invited me to a game you can be sure I would go and I would be happy about it. It’s not about the event it’s about who you are with. Every guy or girl need to remember this. Give the person you’re with the chance to say no. Don’t just assume they won’t go because they don’t like it.
