HA! I am not surprised, since most of that commentary was pulled from our previous conversation on the topic. :) But yeah, with Jeremy, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON IN THAT GIRL'S HEAD. I mean, I like them together, but HOW DOES SHE FEEEEEEEL?
I think part of the Bonnie hate is because she spent so much time at odds with the Scooby Gang. Because yeah, Bonnie is typically the voice of reason regarding vampires, but 99% of the time, when Damon (or Elena or Stefan) wants her to do something pro-Salvatore, it's usually about protecting people by stopping other, worse vampires. So Bonnie ends up looking like a jerk for being consistent on her "no helping vampires of any kind, even if they are Salvatores" stance, when actually... that's not a bad policy, in general.
I'm happy that she's been pretty well integrated into the gang this season, because it makes her less of an antagonistic presence but it's still clear that she has reservations about making things easier for the vampires (even if one of them's her best friend). She will work with Damon, but it's always clear she's doing it to save Elena/stop Katherine/stop the werewolves/stop Elijah, not because she has any squishy feelings toward Damon (which is why everyone else lets him get away with shit).
