'You can't do this anymore, Damon. Not in this town. Not around me.'
'Why not, nothing I haven't done before. Why is it so important for everyone to keep me in check?'
'Because I don't want আপনি to be what other people think আপনি are!'
'What, a monster?! Sorry to disappoint আপনি Elena but last time I checked I was still a vampire!'
'I just wish আপনি didn't have to act like one!'
'I am not Stefan! How about আপনি stop trying to turn me into him?'
First of all - How hot were they even when they were arguing?! :P Whew, such passion.
Next, I think at this point it's completely normal for Elena and Damon to feel the way they do. The whole point of this scene was that Elena was doing the exact opposite of trying to 'change' Damon.
The only thing she wants is for him to act how he does around her in regards to everybody. The Damon that she knows and cares deeply for. The Damon that's vulnerable around her, and lets down his walls, but is still very much guarded. The Damon that shows his humanity. If only Damon were the Damon she knows in regards to everybody then maybe her feelings wouldn't be so 'wrong' ('What does that say about me?'), because Elena has a weird need to justify her feelings as if they're wrong on some level, because everybody else see's Damon as the 'monster'.
Damon, on the other hand, well he's got a whole other bag of problems. For the first time in his life somebody believes in him. Everybody else would choose his brother over him. Katherine, his dad, Elena, Katherine again. I mean, the boys got trust issues. So whenever somebody actually believes in him, it's no wonder that his knee-jerk reaction is to compare himself to his brother as the reason Elena wants him to 'change'. It's just sad, really.
They both have a LOT of work to do, no doubt about that. This was just a really short প্রবন্ধ to view my take on that scene :] If আপনি have a different viewpoint please মতামত and share.
