You're a little biased in your opinion of Dawn, though, given your obsession with Michelle

I think we probably have differing opinions on where he is warranted in yelling at others.
Like I mentioned, Buffy just stabbed her (then) love her life with the pointy end and comes back home only to have her friends abandon her, the school to not let her back in, and her mom's friend to shove it in her face how hard it was on her mom, but also to have him ridicule her in public after, you know... she saved his life and the entire world at the detriment of her own personal sanity.

Like... seriously? Seriously? Can he get over his jealousies over Angel for a second to realize just how much devastation that entire situation must have caused for Buffy for one second? No, because he sucks, is selfish, and completely lacks empathy.
I'm not saying Xander isn't layered or that Xander isn't realistic, what I'm saying is that I hate him and I would never be friends with him. His character is by far the worst for me. Does he play a part in the show? Sure. Do I wish he had died a horrible death at the end? Definately.
