when do damon and elena kiss

Damon and Elena share their first real, conscious kiss in Season 3, Episode 10, “The New Deal.”

Earlier, Elena gives Damon a brief, emotional kiss while he’s dying from a werewolf bite in Season 2, Episode 22, “As I Lay Dying,” but that moment is more of a goodbye than a full romantic “we’re doing this” kiss.

If you’ve just started The Vampire Diaries and want the big Delena turning point, “The New Deal” (3x10) is the episode most fans point to when they ask “when do Damon and Elena kiss?”
