Especially If They Use Her To Try To Bring Bonnie Down - Tumblr Posts
This whole 'Bonnie and Elena deserved better' shit started because y'all were mad that Caroline got the happy ending she deserved and for some reason that's not allowed. Caroline wasn't a bad friend, they were. Bonnie was going to cut her out entirely when she was turned into a vampire against her will. Elena constantly put people above her. If anyone deserved better, it was her.
I don't know where to start with this one so I'm gonna just. go through it quickly.
Bonnie deserved better on a grander scale than just in the happy ending regard, although I'm glad you're acknowledging what she got wasn't a happy ending.
Caroline's ending is happy? Her husband is dead and chose to save his nasty ass brother AND his ex girlfriend over living with her, her baby daddy ruined her school because she was off being an absentee mother no matter HOW you spin it, one of her daughters got turned into a heretic and the other she will presumably outlive, the love of her life (her own words in reference to Tyler) is dead and so is the guy she shook down for money sometimes. She will also go on to outlive Bonnie and Elena. But at least she's alive...?
Caroline was a terrible friend to everyone at one point or another, but special shout out goes to her being completely oblivious or willfully ignorant to Bonnie's feelings as far as Stefan was concerned after he murdered Bonnie's boyfriend in front of her, and to her constantly betraying Elena's trust in the name of Stefan.
Bonnie had trauma with vampires. And Caroline had just killed someone. Whether she could control herself or not, Bonnie witnessed that in some part. How dare she have complicated feelings on the matter?
Let's be serious here. Who was Elena supposed to put Caroline above? Jeremy, her little brother? Bonnie, her actual best friend? By the time she even got to the point she was putting Damon (because, let's face it, that's who you mean) above Caroline, Caroline was doing the same shit with Stefan. Piss up a rope. The only thing Caroline deserved was to get her ass beat at least once a season.
