well, each werewolf is assigned by some force of powerful natives a soulmate, and once u see this person, u become addicted and in love, no matter what age. that is imprinting. ;) TEAM JACOB ALL THE WAY
He loves her,wants her to be happy, and safe.He wants to protect her and make sure nothing can hurt her.He wants her to live a safe and happy life.also to stay with her.its like sam with emily,jared with kim,and quail with clair.they want to stay with them for ever!
he explained it like all the strings from the rest of the world be cut off, and he only exist for her from then on.
so whether they're romantic or not he will still only care about her for the rest of his life.
its like gravity, your whole center shifts, suddenly its not the earth holding you here, you would do anything, be anything she needs a friend a brother a, protector
it means he loves her and she's all he thinks about he'll protect her at any cost and love her til the very end of time! that's so fucking romantic anyone else agree?
