"You don't understand, Bella. You'll never grow old. Never get married. Have babies. Live. I can't take those things from you."
Edward didn't understand that I didn't want those things, not in the sense that other people my age did. My parent's marriage had been horrible. My mother hadn't been a mother at all. In fact, she'd spent hours telling me how miserable her pregnancy and my birth were. And growing old? Becoming arthritic and exhausted? Who wanted to do that?
No, I firmly believed if I was changed I could happily live without missing any of those human experiences.
