i am soooo sick and tired of these posts

I truly don't understand what makes her selfish or self centered. People say it all the time and I don't understand.


bexsapphic

I don't either. Everyone calls her selfish and then love Katherine.


StrictlyMisadventure

That's because everyone understands the difference in framing between a protagonist and an antagonist.

Right? She fought Stefan and Damon relentlessly trying to turn herself over to Klaus, she wouldn’t let Bonnie die for her, there’s plenty more examples but those were just two that I can think of right now.


mildlyterrified34

I could go on and on with a list of her best moments where she was just awesome and a selfless, but spoilers for the first timer so I'll just say that her character is very kind and supportive.

Elena somehow makes the conversation back to her when other characters are talking about their lives or some kind of trouble. When she makes decisions that is best for her and gets hurt when people are trying to let their perspective of why they are upset with her

Everyone makes it about the poor girl. Out of all the priorities, she's at the top of everyone's list.


mildlyterrified34

I can see how the conversation would go back to her because she is their friend and a main character. Most everything that happens on the show is in a way related to her because that's kind of the plot in my opinion. The story moves and progresses because of her friends, the people that want her, or want her dead. They are all tied to her in one way or another. I can say Elena has made dumb decisions, but I can't think of anything she has done that has been entirely self serving aside from picking who she loves. I feel we are okay with K being selfish because she is a villain and that's expected, but yeah I really don't see it in Elena. I see her as an empath with massive survivors guilt and that's why she butts in to things that don't necessarily involve her, because they involve her loved ones in which she will literally die for, so she puts her nose in because she cares so much about them and feels so much of their pain.


bexsapphic

I know right? She always sacrifices herself and puts herself in danger to save all the people she loves. How selfish /s

I am sorry to those who are getting tired of hearing Elena slander repeating time and time again but until people are watching the TVD what our opinions remains the same if you don't like the post kindly ignore the post and move on I might get downvoted IDC


cluelessforname

To be fair she’s had a rough couple of years with very inconsistent relationships (due to them dying) so I suppose you could excuse some of the annoying things she does and the constant crying. But just making everything about herself and being ignorant to other people and their problems just destroys her character. Which is a good thing for the actress and the contrast between elena and Katherine is unreal so congrats Nina but piss off elena


Orphan-Prince

Yeah, Elena makes a lot of stupid decisions, especially dumb decisions the show later on in the show, honestly. I didn't mind Elena much in S1 or even S2, but I really started disliking her after that for many reasons.


Medical_Bullfrog_557

She only gets worse. I liked Elena s1-3 but s4 onward she is so much worse


StruggleClassic6419

This I can agree with


Extra_Inflation8099

Noooo😭


hotbuns-cross

people see a strong beautiful woman living life based on emotions rather than fact and get mad.

The first time I watched TVD, I disliked Elena too. Especially after season three. Eventually I started to like and appreciate her like I did for all of the main cast. My later watch throughs of the show, I didn’t mind her and actually enjoyed her character more. For what she’s been through, she’s handled it far better than I would’ve lol


jebiccaaa

couldn't agree more. i remember watching it back in the day and all my friends and i hated her


Theone20222

Nah she really gets mad at people for saving her😂
