Because real men don't sparkle

I posted this in the Twilight Series spot, and I thought it might also get madami perspective here :)

This is sort of an informal rant/observation.

We all know that New Moon is about tragedy and the loss of pag-ibig and the aftermath. Edward left Bella. But why did he leave her?

Since New Moon is being adapted into a feature length film, I've been seeing alot of tanong and accusations reguarding Edward's absense.

Examples:
- Jacob's better than Edward because he didn't leave Bella!
- Why would Edward leave Bella if he loved her?
- Edward's scum. When you pag-ibig someone, you don't just abandon...
