Elena & Damon - At the begining

I notice a lot of DE fãs don't like Stefan, & I get why. I'm not pushing all to have the same opinion. I, for one, like Stefan. I know he can be a very hypocritical character, plus dull as dirt sometimes (especially when he has scenes with Elena), but I do like his SLs as a character built. I'm iffy sometimes about Damon being overly harsh/antagonistic, the same with Elena, who is my favorito TVD character. I like Stefan due to Steroline friendship, Stefan/Lexi friendship, Stefonnie friendship, Klaus/Stefan scenes, Defan bond, Steferine chemistry/potential, Stebekah chemistry, maybe Stelena...
