I do so love and agree with your interpretation of the flashback. I love every part of it and it feeds into my insane love for their interaction in 1x03. It all fits, it goes together, TADA! They are so perfect, I love them so much.
So what I want is for everyone to be miserable next season, basically. I want Stefan to be effused with self-loathing and regret and horror. I want Damon to be enraged and judgmental and guilt-ridden. I want Elena to struggle, REALLY struggle, with vampirism. And yes, if this is not what we get for S4, I will be *headdesking* myself into a lobotomy. For reals.
Perhaps as a vampire, after a great struggle with it, Elena will come up against it: what she wants is what she's going to have, and what that means for everyone else is their problem. I'd like to see her get there someday, and not just because I love Damon and want them together, but because sometimes it's okay to be selfish, and that would be one of those times.
And just for the sake of why Stefan will never be the right choice, you reference that he stalked her and Damon did not, and I adore this more than I can ever say. It always makes me chortle a bit in 1x11 when Elena asks Damon if Stefan was with her as a replacement for Katherine and Damon's all, "I don't know, it's kinda creepy if you ask me," because it's just so true. Damon isn't hanging out with Elena because she looks like Katherine, he just likes her. He's always liked her, from the first minute he met her. *sigh*
