Very true. That was the thing about the last episode and him trying to "fix" things with Caroline. He was looking for a list of things to do, but what he needed to do was well actually apologize and beyond that explain. That it wasn't Mystic Falls or Caroline that he was running from, that it was a life without his brother that he thought was permanent. That his actions were fueled by grief.
And like you said, Caroline is understanding (sometimes too much so) and I think if he would explain/remember that he hurt her, she would understand. She lost Bonnie too, she's lost other people and she wouldn't know how it felt to lose people that have been part of her life for so long, but Caroline would understand to the best of her ability.
