Okay, first off may I just point out how some people don't do proper research when they delve into seasonthree where we witness a humanity-less Stefan.
Stefan turns his humanity back on at the end of the ninth episode, Homecoming. Do you know why?
Because Katherine talked him into it. Here's the actual conversation:
Stefan: "You wanted Klaus dead for five hundred years. Why would you risk all that, just to save Damon's life?"
Katherine: "I wasn't just trying to save Damon's life, Stefan. I was trying to save yours. Your humanity. Let's just say I liked the 'old you' better."
Stefan: "Nah. Come on, Katherine. You don't care about anybody but yourself. You never have."
Katherine: "You and I both know that that is not true. I loved you, I've loved Damon, too. Humanity is a vampire's greatest weakness...No matter how easy it is to turn it off- it just keeps trying to fight it's way back in. Sometimes I let it."
Stefan: "I can't let it all back in. I don't want to. Not after everything I've done."
Katherine: "Of course you don't want to. But if you don't let yourself feel, you won't be able to do what I need you to do next."
Stefan: "What's that?"
Katherine: "Get mad."
After this, Stefan is still an asshole. Why?
Because after committing horrible acts without your humanity, turning it back on will force the vampire to receive all those emotions all at once.
