Distractions

““Obviously we’re at a bit of a crossroads with Elena and the boys – Stefan’s whole ‘I’m filled with nothing but rage and anger and no love and no humanity’ wall has crumbled and he’s the only one preventing himself from truly letting his feelings back in and becoming his old self. Then there’s Damon, who she’s grown closer to, [but] just put her foot in it big time with him. I think a lot of what we’re going to see is the question for Elena: here’s this person that I loved, and still love so much in my mind. [Then] here is this friend that I have made but our friendship has grown complicated. At the middle of it all, she’s still that girl who is not entirely sure that she’s supposed to be in love with any vampires – let alone two. So we’ll really be exploring her point of view a lot for the rest of this season. Certainly you won’t get to the end of the season without all three of them realizing a choice needs to be made one way or the other.””

I like this summary, especially about being unsure about loving vampires at all. while it seems to most (ie, Matt) that this is all normal life for her now, she’s still struggling with all of the crazy supernatural. how could she not?

and at least she blatantly admits that Elena “put her foot in it big time with” Damon.
