I love Tara. I... I slightly shipped Buffy/Tara? Because I sort of thought they deserved each other? Actually, it was for pretty much the same reason I shipped Buffy/Oz-- they were my favourites, I thought they deserved to have someone awesome and I thought they'd look cute together.
There are some killer episodes later-- Earshot? I love surprise!telepathy.* And I love Tara, I love Anya, I love Xander getting his life together-- and that it can be a good life. I love the magic shop.
And like you say, I love the humour and heartbreak, because it should be like that. It's just a thing of beauty and a joy forever, and it makes me happy for the fact of its existence.
*I'm listening to the BBC Radio drama remakes/backstory/fanfic of Blakes 7 and they're reminding me how much I loved Cally, who was a teleapth. I don't know if you watched the original or have picked up the remake, but one of the things with Cally was that she represented the telepathic mirror of Spock-- she could send, but not receive except for from her family group, so she represented the isolation of the telepath, she could speak but only into a void, no reply, where Spock's telepathy connected him with others.
