Buffy and Angel - The Two {Buffy♥Xander} #10: Because he gave her a bracelet inscribed "Yours, Always." - Page 10

I still feel the same, but I do believe if Buffy told Xander he had a chance he would of left Cordelia and Anya in the dust.

^ That's why I can't see the bro/sis thing since I don't think they ever saw each other that way. And your point pretty much stand, I believe if Buffy blurted out of the blue to Xander that she's been secretly in love with him since however long then Cordy or Anya wouldn't have stood a chance... probably that's an writers issue since I don't feel they clearly wrote Xander as loving Cordy and Anya as he did with Buffy even when he was upset and going against Buffy... I still believed deep in he was in love with her and didn't truly get over her not feeling the same way... he just learnt to accept it and move on with his life.

I agree, I think that Buffy always held a piece of Xander's heart & that was just how it was gonna be for the rest of his life

I definitely could have shipped them too, it felt as if it was on the table for a long time, so to never have it explored felt like a missed opportunity

I agree, I think he just had to accept that Buffy didn't have those romantic feelings for him but I can't say he 100% moved on from her.

Season 3 or 4 I could've been on the ship train the most, or even if they did a Angel/Buffy/Xander triangle in season 2.

I do think there were moments where she felt something, & I definitely think there was a good foundation for it if they decided to show her developing feelings for him...

**eternalfate** · 12-07-2019, 10:06 AM

^ Yep, if the writers wanted to, it could've been a true building point towards it from Buffy's side.

**starryeyesxx** · 12-09-2019, 09:48 PM

Yeah, especially after Angel became Angelus, I felt like she was leaning on Xander more after that, & they were growing closer

**eternalfate** · 12-12-2019, 08:51 AM

Man that would've been perfect if something happened between them during that stretch.

**starryeyesxx** · 12-14-2019, 12:30 PM

It felt like a good time for it, especially after that look in Phases

Yeah, it was funny but also nauseating. Especially how Spike's obsession with Buffy got worse and worse, along with Buffy having to be depressed to even give Spike a chance *pukes* Anyway, it's moments like that where I like Xander and he's one of the people that didn't forget the murderer and monster Spike was just cause he had a chip in his head and had to SETTLE with not killing people.

We don't need to slam Spuffy in every single thread... we understand, you don't like them.

That's a great scene though.

His reaction was incredible.

**starryeyesxx** · 12-19-2019, 02:23 AM

Yeah, I don't think he could believe it at first

**eternalfate** · 12-20-2019, 07:44 AM

Yeah, that whole scene was hilarious and than his reaction when he also learned that Dawn was crushing on Spike as well. lol He was use to being the guy she had a crush on. lol Sad night for Xander. lol

**starryeyesxx** · 12-28-2019, 01:39 PM

Yeah, he stopped laughing pretty soon when he realized that

**eternalfate** · 01-01-2020, 06:34 PM

Yeah. lol The fun certainly stopped. lol
