I think that at 17, Elena didn't think much about the future - didn't want to, really. I think that she's so young, she COULDN'T plan something like that, because she doesn't know what true Amore really is. I'm not saying she doesn't Amore Stefan - just that she has a limited experience of it at 17 years old. She also knows what being a vampire can do to you, and how it can end up, so that might have affected her as well. Still, if te loved a person so much te couldn't be without them, te would have to seriously consider becoming one at some stage. I mean, at the opposite end of the spectrum is Damon, who can't orso the thought of losing Elena forever so he tries to turn her da force. When Elena talks about growing up and having kids, te get the impression that she craves a normal life. But if te watch earlier episodes in Season 1, it seems like she knows what she wants (Stefan), in spite of knowing the dangers it could bring her, and that being with him is no big deal to her, because her life already had a lot of bad stuff in it anyway. It's ironic, because think of all the times she's told Stefan she loves him. She loves him...but not enough to want to spend eternity with him da becoming a vampire. But if she doesn't want to be with him forever, then - can that really be true love? I guess that's the question. Is Elena being fair to Stefan, da saying that, and then continuing to want to be in a relationship with him, when it will eventually cause pain to both of them when it hits an impasse? Elena wants it both ways: she wants to be in Amore and have a relationship with a guy, because it gives her a sense of security in a chaotic life. But he can't give her what she wants, and she won't be able to have the kind of 'normal', secure life that she's probably always dreamed about with him.
