I really hate how most writers portray Elena Gilbert from the Vampire Diaries. How she's always this evil jealous bitch to the main OC and is a complete slut. It's not her at all. She's a compassionate and a good person that's made mistakes. Also, if you have watched the actual show and paid attention instead of getting pissed every time she cries or is with the Salvatore brothers, then you would know why she does some things. For example, having Damon compel Jeremy to leave Mystic Falls... She was trying her best to protect her little brother and I can't blame her for that. I would do the same for my baby sisters. And also, crying and being scared a lot. Why wouldn't that make sense for her? She got introduced to the supernatural world at 17. So for most of her life, everything has been fine and mundane. You can say what you want, but I would be terrified all the time if I was this extremely rare doppelganger that is a magnet for danger and a lot of people wanna use you by your blood. And I would cry a hell of a lot if I had to watch my best friends sacrifice themselves for me or a family member gets killed because I'm so special. Also, think of the time frame. A lot of shit happened to her in just her last two years of high school. And a few more years more shit happens. A natural death of just one family member can and has caused someone to be in a deep depression for years. Imagine that times ten or so for just one girl, who used to have a really good and normal life.
