Throughout The Awakening and The Struggle, it is pretty remarkable how well Matt is able to stay away from being the jealous ex-BF type around Elena.  In fact, he actually goes out of his way at times to help the love of Elena’s life.  (Remember how he took Stefan hours away in his junk box car so Stefan could gather vervain for Elena?)

We noticed that in The Fury, Matt finally gets a tad infuriated about doing favors for Elena.  Once Matt realizes Elena is truly back, his first question is “So what do you want?” Ouch.  That isn’t a very nice way to welcome back your first love and childhood friend!

It can’t be easy to be around a girl you’re in love with without getting a little bitter though, and Matt might have had a right to feel kind of used.  Do you think Matt’s reaction was justified or just mean?
