I’m on season one of vampire diaries but I love Caroline. She’s just a girl and I feel like people forget that, she is the only one out of Bonnie, herself and Elena who is currently unaware of vampires and still living life as a regular high schooler would.
People think she is shallow and she is but she’s also 17. I feel like she has a lot of reasons why she acts the way she does as most of it is because of insecurity, and honestly I feel like she has some legitimate reasons to be insecure. She’s obviously the odd one out in the trio, Matt still obviously has feels for Elana, she was Damon’s second choice as well. And when she brings it up to people they all act like she is crazy and flips the issue on her. Furthermore on top of having little/bad support from her friend group, it is also clear that she doesn’t feel like she can confine in her mom and she doesn’t see her dads often.
So essentially she is alone, all of her friends have less time for her, and are becoming more withdrawn from the things they all used to do together (like cheerleading); also while all her friends do have bigger shit to deal with then the high school drama Caroline is concerned with, Caroline has no idea about said bigger shit and probably feels like her friends are pulling away for no reason other than no longer liking her.
I just feel like her character has the potential to grow into such an amazing, smart and confident person and if they let her be this insecure 17 year old, who is unwilling stuck in a constant battle for everyone’s attention forever I’m going to lose my shit.
