While Twilight follows the romance between Bella and Edward and sometimes Jacob, nothing compares to the love triangle between Damon, Elena, and Stefan on The Vampire Diaries. This is one reason that TVD is better than Twilight.
This love triangle is compelling as it's unclear who Elena truly belongs with.
She has amazing chemistry with both Salvatore brothers. However, in Twilight, Bella was never all that interested in Jacob romantically.
On The Vampire Diaries, Elena doesn't become a vampire by choice. Instead, she passes away and becomes one because of the vampire blood inside of her.
In Twilight, the dramatic question of whether Bella would become a vampire in order to truly be with Edward or remain human has always been much more interesting.
She decides to become one as being pregnant is going to kill her.
Twilight lacks interesting minor characters. With the exception of Alice Cullen, who seems mysterious, the Cullen family is pretty dull and Bella's high school friends, including Jessica, aren't much to write home about.
The minor characters are way more interesting on The Vampire Diaries.
Everyone from Elena's brother Jeremy to her best friends Caroline and Bonnie are cool and strong-willed.
