“I think this scene is not just about Xander. I think Willow has been feeling lonely this entire episode. Let’s look back at the beginning of the episode. Willow’s not feeling great. And that’s before she even knew Xander was with Faith. So, I think that she’s feeling left out. I think she’s feeling like Faith is taking all of her people away from her. I think that she’s probably felt left out her entire life until she met the Scooby Gang and they felt like her people, people she can trust. And so I think that watching Buffy hang out with Faith and not wanting to include her, and now hearing Xander’s been with Faith, it’s just the icing on the cake. And so, I think what she’s feeling right here is just absolute loneliness and hurt. And this just tipped it over the edge. […] There’s probably a little bit of Willow maybe feeling left out in the sense that now she knows Buffy has had sex, and Xander has had sex, and she hasn’t. And she’s not completely sure where her and Oz’s relationship stands. She feels like she has no one. And so, I think there’s a little more sympathy to be had for Willow in this scene because the situation just feels compounded by loneliness.” - @becomingbuffypodcast
