Best Boyfriends on TV: Stefan Salvatore

Via Television Without Pity

We don't often get all mushy and romantic over here at TWoP, but it's Valentine's week, the one time of the year when we do have a little bit of a heart. To take advantage of this momentary lapse of cynicism, we decided to spotlight the often underappreciated characters on TV who are really just amazingly wonderful guys we wish we were dating or (dare we dream) married to. If they actually existed, that is.

Stefan (The Vampire Diaries)
He's far from perfect: he's a vampire who gets little vein-popping eyes when he's angry, he's often a cold-blooded killer, he has a lot of secrets and he can be a little distant. However, he's fiercely loyal and would do anything to protect his beloved Elena. And did you hear that speech about how he'd been watching (stalking) her for months after her parents' death? Swoon. That'd do in any teenage girl - even ones who aren't technically teenagers any more.
