Okay, I've been avoiding this, but I'm just fed up now. I was really skeptical about this show but now I'm addicted. So, yes there is a love triangle, but for some reason its just really compelling to me. I just finished watching Season 4 Episode 6. And, what the heck is going on with Stefan! He's an idiot! First, he let's his 'love' die from drowning! How can a vampire not save two people from drowning in a car, honestly, is he just a wimp? Maybe he wanted Elena to die. But, its his fault that Elena died, maybe not that she is a vampire now, but now he wants a cure and will do anything to get-kill innocent people, team up with Klaus again; not that Klaus isn't awesome, but c'mon. He almost lost Elena the first time he teamed up with him. All because..what, he can't stand to have the vampire version of Elena? He wants his human back? I really don't get it, all the while Damon loves Elena through anything! He loves her no matter what she is or what crap she puts him through.
Damon is so much more mature and smart about things. He doesn't go save Elena in this episode from Klaus, which Klaus said it was to keep her safe, why is there any question he wouldn't? He wants her to be human to make more hybrids, I think his life is lame, Klaus is supposed to be awesome, can't he think of something else to do with his time? And Stefan goes and wastes time and loses Elena anyway. I've never liked Stefan but now he's just getting more stupid? Just lamesauce. That's all there is to it. Some days the writers are good, other days not, do they change writers every time?
