Do you believe that if SE were together instead of SC when Stefan went on the run from Rayna that he would ever be with Valerie? Either S broke up with E because she's human and he might be gone years or the same SC situation where S sends letters but E doesn't read them. I don't believe Stefan would try to be with anyone else. If SC are supposed to be "better than true love" then how could S try to move on when someone external was keeping them apart? Same with C of course, but 1/2

If Stefan and Elena were together when the whole “hunter” storyline happened then Elena would be on the run with Stefan. I mean he’d leave without her and do this whole dance
and either leave when she’s sleeping or leave right away so she can’t follow him and keep it pushing and then one day, like a month or so later, he’s going to turn around and it’s going to be like
like EVERY TIME Stefan tries to shut Elena out or says you shouldn’t be here her reaction is:
so it stands to reason then it would be exactly the same with this and then she’s going to look at him like YOU KNEW I WAS GOING TO COME WITH YOU SO WHY EVEN RUN?
and if Elena physically couldn’t be on the run because of she had kids or whatever then a) Stefan would’ve been way more involved in that pregnancy than he was with Caroline and that is just a fact b) Rayna would’ve been dead the minute she got in between him and Elena because every time it comes to Elena, Stefan takes action.
When Elena and Stefan broke up because of Katherine,
He fights Katherine and she’s incapacitated in the very next episode
When Stefan deems Julian responsible for Elena’s death
He’s dead in the same episode
The whole SL would’ve gone down differently if it was SE and the show wrote to SE canonically.
