I think he knew he was in love, I always interpreted his "were we in love?" as his way of asking her if she reciprocated his feelings, if they would have had a chance had they only met that night she 'ascended' (now that was gag inducing to me) instead. So, I do cry them a river hereThe first time I watched the episode I was actually sad for Angel. When I rewatched it I was beyond tired of the drama. Angel didn't know if he was in love? After 3 months in the ocean and all those episodes spent looking for Cordy? He needed Cordelia to tell him? At the end of the episode when he asks "Were we in love?" and Cordy replies "We were" I was just like...oh for the love of f***, cry me a river! Somebody please kill Cordelia already. So yeah, the ending wasn't very powerful for me, more like gag inducing.
Also, you mentioned that you liked my banner in a thread. It was made by the lovely @GwenRaidenWe both enjoy painships, I mean, Weslah

Agreed about the ascending. No way Cordelia- THE Cordelia- would do that. Bleugh.
