Were Willow and the others out of line for yelling at Buffy?

[MENTION=11428]Dagenspear[/MENTION], you really need to take a step back and stop "yelling" (using CAPS) to get a point across.
Xander asked her where she went and Willow attempted to talk to Buffy about what happened when they were all at Giles' after they found her... It was awkward and clear that Buffy didn't want to talk about it. I can imagine that this was really frustrating for them and it only made a weird situation more weird.
We are gonna have to agree to disagree though cause I'm not going to keep debating you on this.
When did I yell? Could you please clarify?

people read CAPS as yelling ;)
The viewers know that Buffy is all "Angel, Angel, Angel, I killed him!". But in a show where Xander having to kill Jesse or Buffy staking Ford doesn't seem to have affected those two characters in the slightest in the long term, it's not that unreasonable for the Scoobies to think that maybe Buffy did spank her inner moppet and playing it cool means she is sort of okay now. I mean, if the characters were realistic as far as dealing with violent death goes, they would all be in therapy forever just because their classmates keep being murdered, not to mention the people really close to them.
Willow's a magic addict. Xander's emotionally stunted. And Buffy's suicidal. Cordelia ended up being the most well adjusted of the group.

Really? She had the visions almost killing her, she became part-demon, almost fell in love with Angel, hijacked by Jasmine while leaving the Heavens. Then after giving "birth" to Jasmine she went into a coma then died in the coma

And yet throughout all of that she remained mentally and emotionally stable. Shows how strong she was compared to everyone else, doesn't it?

Also, she DID fall in love with Angel. There is no "almost."

agreed on all accounts. Cordy isn't my fave char, but she's more "grounded" than any char on Buffy, except (maybe) Tara.
Yes. They were. I get so mad when I watch this episode... They were all selfish and didn't think for a SECOND about Buffy and how she felt. they thought about how hard this was for them, but they didn't think for a second about Buffy. they invited the whole school in her house because they wanted to avoid that, in fact. and Willow blew Buffy off at the mall... it's just so irritating.

This. Every single time that I watch this episode, ugh it just irritates the crap out of me. Okay, boo hoo you needed your friend Willow because you were going through changes...yes, I understand that, but why not ask your best friend WHY she left in the first place!? I just felt that it was screwed up for them to throw a huge party (well, huge in comparison to what Buffy was expecting) and then ignore her the whole time. I get why they did and how they felt, but it makes me so mad. It would have been pretty awkward if they had tried to talk about it over dinner but ughghgh! The only person who truly makes me mad in that scene is Xander. He is such a complete ass sometimes. It's practically his own damn fault why Buffy had to kill Angel in the first place, and he is the biggest asshole during the entire confrontation.

Still. As annoying as that scene is...it doesn't even come close to how absolutely disgusting Empty Places is. I get that scene, I understand the need for it...but if my family wants me to have an aneurysm, all they have to do is get me riled about about Empty.fricken.Places. Okay, off topic.

Yes. They were out of line for not even considering the possibility that maybe Buffy had gone through something, ya know, traumatic...however, I completely understand why they felt the way they did, and I probably would have reacted similarly to Willow, if I found myself in a similar situation.

Haha and she seemed to have the most crap happen to her. Two comas, possession, death...poor Cordy.
