    Overcoming the pain and thirst to spend the night with her and actually going against his most basic instincts and nature, definately very romantic. This demonstrates his strong love for her in the most undeniable way!

    for me, the most romantic gesture is sharing his first kiss with bella , i just think nothing can top that its sooooo romantic since he has lived much more time than bella, having all the chances with other girls and however he didn’t kiss anyone before bella! he kind of saved it all for her, there’s nothing more romanic than that!

    how about holding her all night while she cried over Jacob? What man would do that I ask you?? And I always loved him leaving her the note “be safe” very simple but oh so sweet.

      You’re right, this night while she cried as she told her a few hours ago that she would never let her cry for Jacob in from of him! I forgot it! So noble of him… Real men don’t do this kind of stuffs, right?

    I said giving her his mothers ring because like most vampires Edwards memory’s of his human life are fuzzy but he does remember his mother and how much they loved each other. Stephanie said in one of her Personal Correspondence’s that Edward pretended to survive his illness and claimed his parents estate in order to get his mothers things , so obviously she was and still is very important to him . Notice that he only mentions to Bella having given Esme and Alice any of his mothers jewelry …not Rose or any other women he is close to. His mothers engagement ring would most likely be the most important to him and the fact that he gave it to Bella say’s volumes about how much she means to him and how much he loves her.

    I chose staying with Bella despite pain and thirst. I chose this because I think it embodies the thing that makes Edward who he is and how much he loves Bella. Consistantly through out the books Edward turns against his own desires and nature as a vampire. No matter how painful it is for him, he will do anything for her. That is romantic. :)

    What about the Meadow scene in the first book? That, to me, is really the most romantic part. It’s when Edward first exposes himself for who he really is. And it’s where he first tells Bella he loves her, and he listens to her heart. It’s when their relationship first manifests into something truly real and lasting.

    There are so many; Edward is a true romantic probably because he was changed and frozen with 1918 values. I love the meadow scene in the book; the restaurant scene in the movie, he was so torn with so many conflicting emotions; all that long weekend while Bella was figuring out he was a vampire and he came back early from hunting to watch her since it was sunny out and ended up saving her in Port Angeles (book); and my favourite, in New Moon (the book) when he found out in Italy that Bella was still alive and he was unable to keep from touching her in the dark tunnels on the way to see Aro. It gave her such hope that things would be alright between them.

    I picked the “apologizing & proposing” option after giving it some thought. And it was purely because of this quote right here: “Before you, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars — points of light and reason. And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.”
    UGH! UGH! UGH! I LOVE that part! It makes me cry every time I read it.

    Forgiving her for kissing Jacob..

  10. giving his mother’s ring to bella was the most romantic gesture>>>>>

  11. Angel says:

    I voted for his first kiss. First kisses are THE BEST and often irresistable and he waited 110 years for her!

    The song comes in at a pretty close second.

    The honeymoon was just plain awsome, but considering how rich his family is I can’t see it as especially romantic, more to be expected.

    Staying the night thirsty and in pain? Stupid and dangerouse for his supposed love.

    And the apology and proposal? NOT romantic. Actually seems a bit manipulative to me.

    Apologizing to Bella for leaving her and then proposing to her.

    Uh hello… how can you top New Moon Chapter 22 “The Truth”?
    Utter Perfection.
