I completely agree. That said, I have a rather odd reply.I think how you vote has a lot to do with what your romantic ideal is.
Ideally, it would be Angel.
BUT
Part of the appeal of them as a couple is the forbiddenness. The Lost Love thing. Romeo & Juliet.
So I voted Xander. I too love the idea of friendship becoming more, and have been in that situation. It's nowhere near as intense as the Spike or Angel chemistry, but it's just as important and it would last. Riley would work too in that aspect. I'd like to see Buffy *happy*, but still pining - make sense?
I'm no fun because I'd go for whatever they dished out to me... I'd even be okay with Spike if it was done in a certain way. 😛
