Why don't I like Stefan Salvatore? Here's 3 reasons

posted by DelenaLove1

Well, for one he lied to Elena ever since they met. And I know he was a vampire and all but he was going to have to tell her at some point. “There are things that wewe don’t know. Things that I want to tell wewe but I can’t. And I may never be able to.” So was he just gonna keep his vampire secret a secret forever? That’s kinda hard to hide from a person who wewe are in a relationship with, especially Elena who can tell when you’re hiding something from her and will do whatever it takes to find out the truth. To quote Matt: “She’s big on trust man. Whatever you’re hiding from her, whatever wewe don’t want her to know she’s only gonna wanna know even more. And she won’t stop until she finds out what it is.”

Now when Elena figured out Stefan’s secret, did Stefan tell her the truth? Of course he did. He was caught and he had to come clean with it au else he’ll lose Elena’s trust even more. This is what I do not like about him. He only tells the truth when he’s backed into a corner aka getting caught in the lie. For example when Elena found out about Katherine looking like her, Stefan could tell that he was about to lose her so he had to come clean with everything just to regain her trust. He couldn’t lie to her anymore because Elena will find out the truth and that will bite him in the punda later on.

Now onto my biggest pet peeve with Stefan. He says he loves Elena right? He says all these things to her to make her happy but at the end of the day, his upendo for her isn’t as strong as people may think it is. I read in a post saying that Stefan respects/vaules human life. Really? I sure don’t remember seeing him trying to change Elena’s mind about her dying just so everyone can live. He just shrugged his shoulders when questioned about it. Who does that? Say what wewe want about Damon. Call him an abuser, rapist, etc. But if there’s one good thing about Damon it’s that he’ll do whatever it takes to protect the people he loves, even if they end up hating him in the aftermath. He might have gone about saving Elena’s life the wrong way but his moyo was in the right place. He loves Elena so much that he can’t kubeba to lose her. And I’ll even say that he loves Elena zaidi then Stefan. Deny it if wewe want but it’s true. If Stefan really loved Elena as much as he says he does then he wouldn’t have been so willing to let her die. It’s the same thing as letting a person commit sucide. I sure hope none of wewe would let your friend take their own life just because it’s their choice. It may be their choice but wewe have a choice to step in and tell them to stop and reason with them. That’s what Elena did with Stefan in 1x20. Stefan was going to burn in the sun but Elena didn’t have that. She talked to him, REASONED with him, and made him think clearly again. She “disrespected” his wishes to die like Damon did with Elena. So tell me why Elena got no hate for saving Stefan while Damon got hated on for trying to save Elena? Double standards maybe? I understand that his methods were different then Elena’s but they did the exact same thing. They stopped/tried to stop the people they upendo die. I just wish Stefan could have done the same with Elena, but instead when his brother was dying he did everything in his power to save him even though he told Stefan HE WANTED TO DIE. So again I ask why Damon gets hated on for disrespecting Elena’s wishes to die while Stefan did the same thing with his brother?

Another reason why I do not like Stefan. When Klaus came to take Elena away he just closed his eyes and ALLOWED Klaus to take her! I understand that Klaus would have killed Stefan if he would have fought back but isn’t doing SOMETHING to save/protect the one wewe upendo better then doing nothing and letting them get killed? He could have grabbed something wooden and stake Klaus. Even though it woulldn’t have killed him it would give Stefan enough time to escape with Elena and go to her house where Klaus couldn’t come in. Remember when Damon staked Elijah? He was left imoblilzed for a good couple hours before he could songesha again. But closing his eyes and letting Klaus take Elena? I’ll never understand it.

I could go on with reasons why I do not like Stefan, but I think I’ve aliyopewa enough vaild points. :)

Bynamearose I won't respond with much length simply because Stefan-hate is pretty common in this fandom, and fighting it is often like sitting in traffic; you feel useless because no matter what reasons you may have, nothings moving or changing, hence the frustration. But you are wrong with a few of your arguments, and I feel like if you [i]must[/i] hate Stefan, you should at least do so with the right reasons. [i]“He only tells the truth when he’s backed into a corner aka getting caught in the lie. For example when Elena found out about Katherine looking like her, Stefan could tell that he was about to lose her so he had to come clean with everything just to regain her trust. He couldn’t lie to her anymore because Elena will find out the truth and that will bite him in the ass later on.”[/i] Before Stefan had explained about his vampirism, he was in a situation that isn't exactly easy to explain to the average person. He wasn't Edward Cullen, trying to force to see what he is because - let's face it - any normal person would run screaming from the idea. So, he let Elena get to know him. Maybe he planned to tell her in the future, and just felt like she needed to know who he was before she judged him based on his...well, his species, odd as it may sound. Stefan was wrong to keep the things he did from her, but most of the revelations that came to Elena were difficulties that not even Damon decided to bring up (as a friend). It's a difficult situation, but since Elena found out the danger she might be in with Katherine (and vampire co.), Stefan has been relatively honest. [i]"I read in a post saying that Stefan respects/vaules human life. Really? I sure don’t remember seeing him trying to change Elena’s mind about her dying just so everyone can live. He just shrugged his shoulders when questioned about it."[/i] 2x15: Stefan: Elena, you've sacrificed yourself to Klaus. To say that we have a difference in opinion is the understatement of the century. Stefan spends the episode trying to convince her that she's making the wrong choice, and that, yes, he's upset with her. Does he eventually choose to let her trust Elijah? Yes, but that does not equate him agreeing with her going off to die – or, at the least, going off to die without her coming back. Hence, Damon's blood in her system being Elena's saving grace rather than Elijah's elixir. [i]“So tell me why Elena got no hate for saving Stefan while Damon got hated on for trying to save Elena? Double standards maybe? I understand that his methods were different then Elena’s but they did the exact same thing.”[/i] One of the reasons people disliked Damon's methods were that A) he made it clear that he didn't care who he had to let die (her friends, for example) in order to save her and B) his “methods” involved feeding her his blood – which even [i]he[/i] regretted later. Do I think his methods were more practical? Yes, of course. But Stefan was too focused on morality, hence Damon brought up the fact that he would be the one to save her and not Stefan. I'd also like to point out that Elena just talked Stefan down; she let him make the choice to keep living, and did not (could not) force him into putting his ring back on. That's why Elena didn't get the same fan-backlash as Damon's methods did. I'd like to add that, while I think your arguments are well thought out, I disagree whole-heartedly. I love both brothers, and their differences in personality and methods are what define them. Just because they're different does not meant one is better or worse than the other.

lilikhoshaba ok i now have 3 reasons to tell you that you 3 reasons are wrong :) Number 1. Stefan only kept it a secret from her because he knew that if he told her she could be in danger for what she knows and clearly after she starts getting in danger from other vampires. and he comes clean to her because he dosnt want to lie to her but if telling her gets her in danger then he wont. and the thing about katherine is to him it didnt matter he loves elena and he didnt want her to feel sad and think he only liked her because she looked like katherine. Number 2. (this one pissed me off) No.. Just noo. okay stefan does love elena. " and deny this if you want" but stefan loves her more then Damon. Stefan loves her so much that he is willing to let her make her own discussions and Stefan is obviously going to miss her and loves her but would you rather be alive and all your loved ones dead. or die and know that you protected the people you love and that they are now safe?? and Damon dosnt protect the ones he loves he thinks hes protecting elena and putting everyone she cares about in danger so he can still have her. Like no. And the thing when elena saved stefan is different. He did that out of guilt so it is okay to stop him because no one will be in danger if hes still alive. But the thing with elena is that if he lives someone else has to die. And damon gets the hate because what he does is selfish yes he wants to save her and that's nice but that's it. he dosnt think about how she will feel or what happens to others. Number 3. Did you even watch the whole episode. he let her go because there was no reason for him to die too. she was going to live because they did that spell that would take johns life and protects elena ( and yes elenas DAD had to die because damon gave elena vampire blood even if she never wanted to be one ) so she was going to live anyways and she did . S o those are my reasons on why your reasons are WRONG

“I hate Elena because she didn’t anything to try and save Stefan”

posted by bdavis98

At least that people believe (I’m not one of them) people are calling a horney bitch, kahaba I mean what the hell with the hate? Everyone now especially stelena mashabiki hate her because she gave up on Stefan so easily they hate her and they are so disappointed in her because she knew he was under “compellation”, she a selfish bitch, kahaba because she isn’t willing to spend her whole life saving Stefan really??

I mean just look back from S1 until now, look at what she had to endure and put up with Stefan, the guy comes to her life and from then lies to her about what he is, who he is, who he was. He lies...

Katy Perry- Thinking of wewe lyrics (the vampire diaries soundtrack; 1x1 Pilot)

posted by twilightlover73

Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed

You alisema songesha on
Where do I go
I guess sekunde best
Is all I will know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of wewe
What wewe would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
Like a hard Candy
With a surprise center
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
You alisema there's
Tons of samaki in the water
So the waters I will test

He kissed my lips
I taste your...

Pairing Stereotypes: Bamon and Delena

posted by Maximumridefan

Ok, so if wewe know me from Fanfiction.net (Danielle Salvatore) wewe would know that I’m a major Bamon fan. They are my inayopendelewa pairing from VD in the onyesha and vitabu (though mostly books). But lately, in the onyesha at least, I’ve started to see Delena in a new light, maybe even to the point that I might start liking them soon.
Now before my fellow Bamon mashabiki start kicking my ass, I’m not saying that I’m switching pairings. I still upendo Bamon, but I think in the VD show, I might become neutral someday.
So I got inspired to get into the Delena shabiki base a little, kwa going over to their spot...

Elena’s POV
“Why don’t wewe sit down and we can talk.” I was pressed tightly up against the counter. “No need to be scared.” Katherine was smiling as she took steps towards me. “Katherine this is between Damon, Stefan and wewe not me.” Katherine tilted her head and shook it tell me no. “Honey this is about you.”

Damon’s POV
“How the hell could wewe do that? Damon I asked wewe to do this for Elena.” Stefan was furious. I just rolled my eyes. “Your just upset because she may also have feelings for me to, just like Katherine.”...

“What do wewe mean? What’s happened?” Damon urged. Katherine hung her head solemnly.
“The new Wanyonya damu in town are the same ones that were obsessed with me back in the 1850’s. The exact same ones.” My jaw dropped and I gasped.
“Why are they here? Why now?” alisema Damon as he tensed up and clenched his fists.
“My guess is that it’s because I’m close to my…humanity, which is, FOR NOW, Elena,” she said, accentuating the words ‘for now’ and staring maliciously at me. I took a step back. Damon placed himself as if he was ready to protect me from anything. His eyes were wide....

“How….” I alisema slowly, trying to get my head around what Katherine was telling me. I was her humanity? I was her SOUL? “How…” I alisema pathetically again. She sat down on the sofa and held her empty glass tightly. She looked up at me.
“When Emily removed my humanity, she locked it away. She told me that the only way I could ever get it back was if it was…born again. Then she would chant a spell and my souls would be united.” She stared sadly at the floor. “But Emily has gone. Her spell has gone. There’s no way I can get my humanity back…” Damon’s mouth stopped hanging...

“What?” Stefan alisema when words failed to leave both Damon and my mouths. She was still staring at me.
“I can’t believe it. How is this possible?” she alisema to herself. I was at loss. What was she TALKING about? Stefan slowly walked towards her and knelt beside her.
“Katherine, we need wewe to tell us. What are wewe talking about? How is Elena…you?” he asked gently. She seemed to calm down and she walked over to the bar. She shakily poured herself a large neat vodka and downed it. She slammed the glass down and stared at the fire.

Suddenly, two men emerged from the forest behind us. They were dressed head to toe in hiking gear and they were laughing and chatting to each other.
“See what I mean?” Damon whispered in my ear. I batted him away.
“Oh shush.” He laughed gently and I saw that his line of vision was fixed on the hikers. I felt myself shaking slightly. He looked down at me abruptly.
“Elena, don’t worry. I won’t hurt them. I won’t hurt anyone when you’re around me. I promise.” My shaking gradually stopped. I looked back at the hikers and one of them saw me looking. He waved.
“Hi there!” he...

Stefan looked at the floor guiltily.
“Go on Stefan, explain yourself,” Damon pressed. Stefan looked up at him angrily.
“You already know everything.” He looked back at me. “Elena, I’m so sorry I left you. I asked Damon to tell wewe everything and maybe if he had…” he glared up at Damon with a rage that petrified me. “Maybe if he had told wewe then I wouldn’t be here explaining myself, I wouldn’t have walked in on wewe two upstairs, and possibly we’d still be together…” I knew he was right. If Damon had told me that Stefan had alisema he loved me and he was sorry about whatever...

It was Stefan.

He stared at us with an intensity that shook me to the bone. Damon felt me shiver and tightened his grip on me. My anger towards Stefan flared up again and I glared at him. But at the same time I couldn’t help but feel a twinge of happiness at the fact that he was here again in my life. But the desertion, the abandonment consumed me once zaidi and I continued to glare at him. But as projected my anger out as hard as I could to him, I couldn’t help but notice that he was different. Something about him was – off. It wasn’t in his stance au his face, but in his eyes. His...
