Oh I understand it all well enough. And Joyce's fears (particularly) are not unfounded.
I think what I wish, is when she said "I don't care about that!" (meaning children, sex, a boyfriend who doesn't set on fire in sunlight etc), he could have answered: "Yes you do. You told me so yourself and you were right."
It's the fact that he forces the issue with no discussion that annoys me so. He does the same thing (but worse) in IWRY, and it makes me go grrr. Of course it's entirely consistent with the character and (in its way) very selfless. But - as Tara said: "But you don't get to decide what is better for us, Will. We're in a relationship, we are supposed to decide together."
Buffy knows it can't last, but I just wish the break up had happened another way. But then where would B/A be without the giant helpings of angst? *g*
