nothing but the rain...

It angers me so much that the show won't let Caroline talk about Damon's treatment of her in Season 1. It's like in these last few episodes the writers wanted to use all the anger that Caroline has against Damon because of his abuse of her in Season 1, but the writers are too scared to address that abuse so they are making it look like Caroline is irrationally hating on Damon because she thinks he's a "man-slut" or "always wrong". It's insulting to Caroline's character that the writers are using her anger to create storyline, but they won't address the trauma she experienced that led to that anger. I guess that it could be rationalized that the reason Caroline has been using these petty insults against Damon over these last few episodes, without bringing up the true reason for her hatred of him, is that she doesn't want to think about those horrible times in Season 1 and she doesn't want to allow Damon actions in Season 1 to have that much power over her again, so instead she chooses to not address the abuse. I still think though that that rationalization is only part of the reason Caroline didn't mention the abuse in the last episode and the other reason is that the writers are too scared to address Damon's abuse of Caroline, because they don't want to have to deal with the actual issue (they just wanted to use Caroline's anger over the issue to create storyline over these last few episodes, which is gross and offensive to Caroline).
