When do you think Elena fell in love with Damon?

Discussion :comments:

So the canon answer is 3x01 when he gave her back the necklace, but that has never sat right with me. It was certaintly a big moment for them, but for me, way back when, the shift came later.

At the earliest I think it happened in 3x05, when she's hurt and upset and he tells her he's never leaving her again.

And please no hate on this post, I don't even ship Delena anymore but I saw some discussion about this on another post and thought it would be interesting.
