Would Bella love Edward if he was human?

Character/Relationship Discussion

Please don’t come at me for this question - I’m just curious. Rereading the whole series, I got the impression that most of the things Bella loved about Edward have to do with him being a vampire, such as his beauty, his mysterious existence and him protecting her, being possessive of her and taking care of her. I know that she is this selfless protagonist who doesn’t care about money or appearances, but she still gets all of that regardless. I was wondering if she would love Edward if he was a normal human 17 year old and what character traits she loves about him. What do you guys think?

(Just to add: I also think Edward not being able to read Bella’s thoughts is a big part of his infatuation with her.)
