I know you want to stop it. Protect her from it. But you’re young. You don’t see what I see. It’s not just that she makes him a better person. She does, but, he changes her too. Damon challenges her, surprises her. He makes her question her life, beliefs. Stefan is different. His love is pure and he’ll always be good for her. Damon is either the best thing for her or the worst.

Once you fall in love with someone, I don’t know if you can ever shake ‘em.

this wasn’t like a lot of their other fights where they sort of tumble around . this wasn’t a fight . this was ‘You’re supposed to be my brother. I gave up everything including the girl I LOVE for you. Why couldn’t you stop yourself from r… . ‘Why couldn’t you ever just be my big brother? Why do you always have to want what I want? WHY CAN YOU NOT LOVE ME MORE?’ . and then he just punches him . because it isn’t fair . this is his brother. and he spent over a century blaming himself for his brother’s misery. and it never makes a difference. . his brother will never really forgive him. . he’ll never choose him. . and lil bro!Stefan is ANGRY and HURT . he couldn’t leave Elena alone. Damon acts like he doesn’t understand their bond. like he doesn’t care. . this punch is basically: ‘WHY DON’T YOU LOVE ME?’ . damon doesn’t understand FAMILY . and I wish he did . because this is the true love story. . they let katherine come between them—and before that they let their father do it—and now elena. nothing is sacred . and some day Damon’ll have to understand that you don’t sacrifice yourself because you owe your family. You do it because you love them. . because that’s the thing. Stefan loves Damon. And sure he loves Elena. But that’s different. . he isn’t punching him for loving elena. he’s punching him because he wanted him to love HIM more . and that makes me so sad .
oh my god

#so this girl gets more hate than any character on this show #this girl who lost all the family she had: her adoptive parents and birth parents and her guardian #this girl who was almost murdered by her ex-boyfriend and used as a human-bloodbag #in the beginning she tries to pretend she’s okay. she tries to smile when she feels like crying. #when she lost Jenna and John she doesn’t try to pretend anymore. she’s broken and sad and she doesn’t hide it. #and she apologizes to her brother that because of her HE lost so many people. #and the last one is the saddest cause she’s so used to the horrors of her life that she’s almost numb. #so she just takes a sponge. masks the bitemarks. and goes to learn how to kill a vampire.

“You cared about her, didn’t you?” “It’s a common mistake, I’m told. One I don’t intend to make again.”

Elena, it’s no easy task being an ordinary parent to an extraordinary child. I failed in that task. And because of my prejudices, I failed you. I’m haunted by how things might have played out differently if I’d been more willing to hear your side of things. For me, it’s the end. For you, a chance to grow old and someday do better with your own child than I did with mine. It’s for that child that I give you my ring. I don’t ask for your forgiveness, nor for you to forget. I ask only that you believe this. Whether you are now reading this as a human or as a vampire, I love you all the same. As I’ve always loved you and always will. John
