Here are a few arguments that will make you wanna bang your head against the wall!! When will those DE-ers ever get it??!!
For me the final showed that Stefan doesn't love Elena all that much after all, and that Elena doesn't love Stefan all that much after all. They both pretend to live an "epic love" that does not exist
And I can't help remembering when Elena said she doesn't understand love nor wants to be a vampire. If she was so sure her love for Stefan, wouldn't she at least be considering becoming a vampire?
Stefan/Elena are the antithesis of epic. They are the reason I can no longer stomach that term when it comes to romance. I mean, WTH. When do they do anything other than brood and sing-song sweet nothings into each others faces? And they "fell in love" after ten episodes. TEN. How fricking contrived is that? Out of the blue, Elena is all, "When it's real, you can't walk away!!" and I'm like, "WTH, Elena?! How do you even know if it's real. You're seventeen years old and you just broke up with the only boyfriend you've ever had." And, anyway, these two people suck the life out of a room when they're together. There's no buzz between them. It's always, "Man, are we epic or what?" "LOL, yes. Like remember that time we flew into a ferris wheel together?" "LOL ELENA YES. Remember that time I took you to climb a mountain on your last day as a human being and you asked to do it again and I was all 'LOL NO. YOU MUST SWEAT OFF YOUR HUMANITY BEFORE TONIGHT'?" In conclusion: There is nothing epic here. Move along.
Also.. SE are such a.. tell not show kind of couple.. They have to tell us they're epic, and that they love each other soo sooooo much in every other scene.. i'm pretty sure more than half their scenes together involve them making out.. i just.. what exactly is so epic about those two?? The fact that he stalked her before he squirmed his way into her life? Is that what makes them epic?
I just don't understand why they think that they're it for each other. I understand that Stefan got her through a very tough time after her parents died, but what connection do they really have? What do these two people have in common? They really enjoy sucking face and discussing the exponential growth of their epic love for one another...? I mean, Stefan "loves" Elena so much that he's willing to let her die, but he locks Damon up to prevent him from doing the same thing? Just. What. How does that not open an entirely different discussion of how Stefan doesn't understand love. It's all we heard about on the DE front. But that's another debate entirely.
Yeah, sure, Stefan was what she needed once upon a time, it doesn't mean he's the love of her life though. And IKR!? Ohh Elena wants to die, it's her choice though.. i respect it.. it's cool i mean, she might come back to me OMGee Damon you will NOT die!! I will move mountains for you!! Which is awesome for the brotherhood, it was in dire need of something like this, but really??
Yeah, I just don't see how SE are a forever kind of thing. She said herself that she doesn't want to be a vampire, so why how in the frick is it "always gonna be Stefan"? Their whole relationship is one gigantic oxymoron for me. Just... no. But, in my opinion, the oxymorons really started becoming apparent at the tail end of this season, so maybe that's the unraveling of SE. I hope so. Because I hate them.
"IDK what love is.. ahem.. i mean .. i love YOU! I do!! " LOL WHAT!? I felt like she caught herself and tried to fix it
In my opinion, Damon is MUCH more important for Stefan than Elena. It was obvious from the start. And you know, as a DE and Stefan/Damon fan I can't even complain But anyway, as for SE, right now they only proved to me once again how wrong they are for each other. I watched two seasons of this show and still don't get WHY do they "love" each other? I can't answer this question nor can I understand why do they have a much better chemistry with other people if they are supposed to be each other's twu wuvs.
Currently I'm at 2X15/16 and what did I see there? I see Damon trying as hard as he can to save Elena while Stefan enjoys his romantic weekend with her. Stefan was pretty pointless and useless in those two episodes, because everything was done by Damon and Alaric + Elena and her friends. Stefan is a great character, but for some reason when it comes to Elena he shows his worst sides.
He's pretty useless in a lot of eps where Elena is concerned..
14/15 they go on a getaway.. Everyone else is left to take care of Elijah.
17 he's Elena's "bodyguard" while Damon is in charge of finding the burial ground, then she gets kindapped on his watch so he calls Damon
18 has him whining about Damon's tactics which saved Bonnie/Elena & allowed Stefan to comfort Elena..
19 has him blindly accepting all of Elena's life or death choices, no ands if/buts about it.
20 has him be ok with Elena possibly dying and taking her hiking!!! and then he calls Damon.. again, when Klaus takes her away
21 was better.. and 22 was awesome but not for SE.. for DS.. and DE
