Textauszug

Bella Swan arrived in Forks, alone and miserable. She'd left her home in sunny Phoenix, the city she loved, to live in the rainy Olympic Peninsula with Charlie, the father she'd barely seen for three years. She'd never fitted in and was dreading facing a new high school. On her first day, she was placed next to the stunningly handsome Edward Cullen in biology class. Before long, she was deeply in love and her life was transformed. Could this be you? Or is it just a fantasy story? Can our lives be transformed by finding a perfect love? Your dilemma Is your boyfriend or next boyfriend going to be 'Your Edward'? Is he 'Your Jacob'? This is the question millions of you all over the world are asking after reading Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. The story is so powerful that it has changed the way you look at your own love life. In some ways, this could be a good thing. You're no longer willing to settle for someone who doesn't love you enough. But there are dangers, too. The romantic ideas portrayed in Twilight may lead you to a boyfriend who cannot make you happy and might even be dangerous. And there's another problem when you love Twilight. The man of your dreams is not a human being. He is immortal, has superhuman powers and diamond skin (if you are Team Edward), or can change his shape at will (if you are Team Jacob). He loves you with a tender, fierce, eternal devotion. He'd rather die than live without you. He'd surrender his life to protect you. The dilemma for you is: after Edward's topaz-eyed, chiselled perfection and Jacob's six-pack, how can any normal human mortal measure up? Love is hard to find It was already difficult enough to find someone who is right for you. In fact, it's harder now than it's ever been. You've more freedom and choice about who your boyfriend is than at any other time in history. Now that travel is fast and relatively cheap you have the opportunity to meet hundreds of guys in your normal, day-to-day life. On a computer you can connect to someone anywhere in the world in a second. Take Bella. On her first day at Forks High School she met Eric and Mike, both nice enough local boys, and she could immediately sense that both were interested in her. The school cafeteria held plenty more boyfriend possibilities. The choice of potential boyfriends is breathtaking nowadays (even if many of these guys are not breathtaking themselves!). So what's the problem? Psychology studies of decision-making reveal that the more options you have, the more difficult it is to make your choice. In medieval times there was no cafeteria full of guys –, it might have been a choice between Godfrey the farmer from up the hill (dark-skinned, well-built, makes you laugh but has teeth missing) or Cuthbert the farmer from down the hill (red hair, good teeth, but keeps on repeating that boring joke about the virgin and the bishop). Back then you didn't have much to ponder over. It was likely your father would be the one making the decision over who you should marry. Even if you were lucky and he took your feelings into account, you didn't have much time to decide. If you dithered for too long, you'd be an old maid. If you were 18 and unmarried, everyone would be whispering about you behind your back. Your mother would be mortified and trying to get you into a convent. Anyway, the choice between Godfrey or Cuthbert didn't matter all that much. If you got married, there was a good chance that one of you would be dead in a few years (childbirth, plague, starvation) so you probably wouldn't have been committing yourself to years and years with him. Nowadays you have numerous options and plenty of time to make your choice, and it's a big decision. With today's longer life...
