It's very confusing to me because it seems so badly thought-out. Like if Elena's free will has been taken away so that she has to do whatever would make Damon happy, that's actually a really really huge deal! But it's just kind of been hanging there all season and they still haven't really defined whether or not it actually exists. Some viewers argue that it doesn't of course, but all I know is that it's felt like Elena's voice has been missing for most of the season and it would be nice to have some kind of explanation on what is going on with that whole plot. The thing with her falling for Damon doesn't bother me as much actually because late season 3 did establish a clear attraction on Elena's part, it's mostly how quickly Elena lost all feelings for Stefan and found herself completely in love with Damon that confuses me. While the sire bond is hanging there it's really hard to know if that's meant to be a part of her actual characterisation or if it's just the sirebond affecting how she feels, but they really shouldn't have compromised their main characters POV for an entire season near enough and made it so that viewers aren't even sure how much free will she has
