Though, idk, IA with Lauren that the writers sometimes go overboard with the Damon-angst, which leads to him being not as sympathetic. But, I mean, I can't blame Damon for that. What retains my sympathy is the fact that the audience can see how messed up he is - we get the full blast of the self-loathing - but nobody else does.
I also balk at the idea of buying into the good!Stefan/bad!Damon dichotomy -- that's pretty much exactly what Damon himself tries to reinforce, so... I defy his self-destructive desire to be hated, lol. *pets Damon*
