*blushes* You know I love you too, right? *hugs you*
I've been reading all the comments to this post. And I've come to the conclusion that one day I'm gonna have to make post or an essay or something to explain my perspective on the whole Angel(us)/Spike/Buffy deal. Because amazingly, I seem to be the only person to have one. I'll tie it up with the "the significance of the soul", why Angel and Angelus are basically the same guy, my views on the whole Angelus/William relationship, how love is not implicitly excluded of that relationship (nor of any relationship between vampires, for that matter) even if it is somewhat muddled by inherent Sub/dom factors, how Buffy/Spike is a somewhat twisted re-enactment of that dynamic, why Spike turned precisely to Buffy and how this is linked to the fact that they both share a complex past history with Angel/Angelus, how we should take into account that Buffy is, even if only subconsciously, trying to recapture what she had with Angel and how her feelings for Spike can't be dissociated – to an extent - of the fact these two beings, these vampires, share a connection she will never partake, perhaps not even ever understand, but towards which she will always be attracted for they are her dark equivalent and extremes will always eventually touch themselves. And some other stuff. ;) Me? Complex? No, no, no, you've got the wrong person.
(And yes, you're right, it wouldn't be a productive discussion. *loves you for being a mature person* Want a cookie?)
