Bonnie Bennett seriously was amazing. And she deserved way better love interests than she got in the show.
Pairings I would have liked to have seen:
Bonnie x Damon They had amazing chemistry on screen. I love the friendship that developed between them, and how they kept each other on their toes. Plus, Damon seriously deserved better than Elena.
Bonnie x Klaus Truly, madly, deeply. This could have been fire. If anyone could keep Klaus in line, a Bennett could. Bonnie would. And it never made sense to me why Klaus was sooo into Caroline. I mean I liked her, but I didn’t see it.
Bonnie x Stefan This would have been amazing because they were so similar in so many ways. I think Bonnie could have helped Stefan kick his habit of ripping people. Probably because human blood wouldn’t be as good as his witch’s blood in the throes of passion. 😜 And Stefan could have helped Bonnie kick her need to constantly sacrifice herself.
Bonnie x Tyler I totally think Tyler and Bonnie had potential in the first couple of seasons. Unfortunately, nothing came of it, and they paired him with Caroline. Sorry, but I just don’t see a wolf and a vampire as a couple that could have lasted. But a wolf and a witch? Tyler could have totally let his wolf flag fly. 😂 Tyler didn’t like the vampires and neither did Bonnie. They could have protected each other from it.
Bonnie x Kol Seriously, this pairing would have cracked me up. I just can’t help thinking it would have been so much fun to see.
Pairings I want to get behind, but am still unsure of:
Bonnie x Elijah He would have been a gentleman and would have done anything to protect her, if they were together. Unlike others (I’m looking at you Jeremy).
Bonnie x Kai I feel like this would have also been funny. I think Kai totally would have jumped at the chance to be with Bonnie… not sure if she would have ever actually given him the opportunity. But eh, I think I would have still liked it better than pretty much all of her love interests on the show.
Pairings that I just can’t see:
Bonnie x Jeremy I didn’t like it before he cheated on her with a ghost, and I hated it afterwards. Seriously, they couldn’t think of anyone else? Jeremy was useless, even as a hunter. Thank you, but no.
Bonnie x Enzo Maybe I would have liked it if Damon wasn’t so much better at being Damon. Plus, the chemistry between the two felt lacking. Every time they did something that should have been cute, it felt like they were each trying to prove something.
Bonnie x Matt I just can’t. Don’t get me wrong, I could totally imagine Matt falling for her. But I can’t see her falling for him. Granted, she probably would have been great for him. I truly think that pre-vampire Caroline and him, were kind of perfect for each other.
Bonnie x Jamie What? Like why? Seriously, why? Why would this have ever have been a thing? Nope.
My actual true Bonnie OTP:
Bonnie x A being whose power is only matched by Bonnie Just think of it… Damon lets Elena go exploring her old house in the prison world, instead of meeting Bonnie halfway, right? Well, let’s say she figures out the whole Qetsiyah tombstone thing on her own. She gets the power, escapes the prison world, summons ms cuddles to get her powers, and leaves. She doesn’t let anyone, and I do mean anyone know she’s out. The Scooby Squad are still running around with their heads cut off for years, while Bonnie travels. She meets some bloke who is like super duper powerful, like more powerful than Klaus. He doesn’t try to kill her or use her for her powers. He doesn’t want anything but her. He could not care less about doppelgängers and would gladly kill the whole Mystic Falls and NOLA group, if she asked. Then, one day after they are married they go back to MF so Bonnie can visit her Grams’ grave or something. That is when everyone realizes she’s alive, and that is when they realize she is the happiest that she’s ever been… away from them. Damon, who had long since realized he was in love with her is both happy that she is back and miserable that she’s not his. Klaus is jealous because Bonnie looks super amazing and powerful, and he wants to possess that power. Plus, he’s jealous that he’s not the most powerful being anymore. And Elena is pissed, sad, jealous, and realizes that she spent the last years of her friendship with Bonnie, using her. But Bonnie? Bonnie is just like, “Yeah, I’ve been out for years. This is my husband and theses are our two kids. Plus I’m expecting another.”
That would have made me so happy. But sure, let’s end the show with Elena waking up and getting her happy ending with Damon… even though they were horrible together. Let’s go with that.
