I adore the fact that Spike and Buffy became their own story, not fitting into any moulds or ordinary relationship structure.

I completely agree. This is my problem with so many m/f relationships in TV shows, and there are so few that really break that mould. For me Buffy and Spike are one example, and the other is Sheridan and Delenn in B5, who also have a relationship dynamic that for the most part completely defies cliches; maybe quieter and certainly less dysfunctionally than Spike and Buffy, but in really interesting ways, because their relationship is part of this whole epic war plot that simply would never have happened like this without the two of them falling in love.
