Don't u guys think that Alaric cares for Elena más than John does?

I think, that as much as John has hurt Elena, he has known her for longer and loved her, her whole life. I think Alaric does care for Elena but not as much as John.

I'd say it's a difficult call to make, however that being dicho I think John still loved her more. After all he died for her knowing it was permanent, and the note he left for her spoke to that for me. I felt like that note had a lot of deep amor coupled with regret in it, the kind of amor only a parent can have for his own child. I mean, his family was indoctrinated for over a century to hate vampiros and think they're inhuman abominations but when it was time to die that letter showed that while he wasn't necessarily over that indoctrination, he was willing to amor her even despite that. I reckon it takes some powerful feelings of amor to overcome those kinds of views.
Alaric and Elena are different, I think Alaric would die to defend her and Jeremy but I think he'd be más likely to risk his life for others than John was (although granted John was still a member of the council and in his mind a soldier that tried to protect others). I think after Jenna dies Alaric needs Elena and Jeremy as much as Elena and Jeremy need him, and that bond created por the fractured lives of both is strong, but at the end of the día I can't imagine it's quite the same as the amor tu have for your actual flesh and blood. Plus of course, John knew her from the moment she was born.
I think the amor between Alaric and Elena is más of a amor of equals, whereas the amor between John and Elena was más John wanting to look after his daughter even if she didn't amor him.
