committed. His torture has always been that as
demon or man, he wants 
someone to love him fully. The need for love
plagues his soulless 
carcass, and the exploration is how bad or how
good will he become to 
fulfill that need.


Spike may think it's love, but I think he's
confusing love with lust. I'm not sure what
Joss's intentions are with Spike, but I do know
that even people with souls get the two
confused--my ex-spouse being one of them. And
I'm not saying this out of bitterness or
anything, I just have firsthand experience seeing
my ex bounce from person to person, always
telling people that this is THE one--then later
it becomes obvious it wasn't. Now, if this can
happen with someone who supposedly has a soul,
then I think a soulless creature like Spike is
definitely just acting on lust and confusing it
with love.
