I would've loved for it to be established as her being bi... although it does seems like she turned full out lesbian in the later seasons. It's really no way around that.
It's just upsetting the writers couldn't just have Willow as a character who just loved individuals by who they were, not what they were, or what gender they were. I guess it's like real life... I guess. Some people are bi, some people are just fully gay.

Well since I'm bi too (god I hate labeling it), I'm annoyed at how that was portrayed and buried under the carpet. TV shows usually suck with showing bisexual characters, it's like you must be one or the other or it doesn't count.

My feelings exactly, I feel that was more fitting to Willow's character, and it's how I'd describe myself if anyone asked.

Oh that's awesome!
I think just because she started dating Tara, it shouldn't have changed every single thing about her. I just wish it was explained a bit more.
She started dating Tara and then she's just a lesbian.

For characters, yes it does make sense for real life people but in Willow situation it didn't because it's not like once Willow saw Tara there was just automatically attraction, it's not a time where she said "She's a babe." AND then had to question her feelings. When she first met Tara, she was still suffering from a broken heart from Oz leaving and then her relationship with Tara grew and then the more she hung around Tara, the more she started to feel okay... feel better.

That's what happens, if your heart broken and you find that other person, they kind of fill in the void. That's what I believe Tara did for Willow. Then romantic feelings started to come around because Tara was the one there for her in this time of her life where not many people were, she couldn't really open up about her pain... which is what she explained in 'Something Blue'.

So for all those reasons, I think it would've been more fitting for Willow to be bi.

You said it better than I could, just what I was thinking, well done.

ICA, that's how I see it too

I've seen a lot of people complain about that, completely justified imo. I think it was bi-erasure.

Definitely one of the cutest

& Oz was a pretty unique love interest imo, they didn't just bring in someone just like her & put them together. I think that's part of what made them interesting to a lot of people

I think you're right, Oz was a unique character and he was perfect for Willow because he wasn't just like her.

They grew a lot together



we are lost. we are not gone.

Probably the cutest first kiss I've ever seen.
