"I think I worry that he's doing all these things for me because he says he loves me, but ... what if I don't love him as long as he loves me. Or what if loving me isn't enough?"
Never mind the fact that Damon's behavior isn't her responsibility. Never mind the fact that his actions shouldn't have any weight on her but they will. If she's with him, if she jumps where she knows he will catch her, everything he does will be in relation to her.
And she isn't sure if that's something she wants.
"It's not enough that he wants to be better so that he can be with me, he has to be better. Even though Stefan has done some awful things, he still wants to be a good person." Sometimes. Now may not be the best example, but he does.
There's pause. "I don't know. I haven't really talked to him about this. But he said to me that he doesn't want expectations placed on him, and that's why he won't let people see that there's good there, and I don't know if it's enough for only me to see it."
