So far....the premiere of TVD makes me think one thing....Stefan is a stiff and Damon, even tho dead, is full of life.
I once tweeted about how I felt about Damon and Stefen and Elena....and I will repeat it again....and this episode, now that I have seen the whole thing, only reinforces what I think.....AGAIN, I am not the writer nor creator of TVD....and hell, I don't even work on the show now.....BUT here is what I think....and this is only MY OPINION...........................................
Elena is a child.....and a very young emotionally stunted woman...due to many things....perhaps her parents early death....or all the events that have happened since that tragic event.... Stefan.....is secure, Stefan is safe....Stefan is understandable.....Stefan is predictable.....Stefan is solid and Stefan will never change. What a young girl needs is that stability....especially a young girl who is orphaned, who has a brother to look after..... Damon on the other hand is everything opposite....he is not stable, he is not secure, he cannot be understood....and Damon is changable.... To me Damon scares the pants off of Elena (would that he could)....and in her present stilted emotional state...she could never understand what Damon has to offer.....Damon is a MAN....Elena is a little girl.... A little girl cannot be with a MAN such as Damon until she grows up.....and has the maturity to appreciate and share with the wonders of Damon.
