Ok so I was thinking which isn't always a good thing lol. But I believe Dawn ruined many relationships on Buffy ok so she wasn't the cause of the problems but she always said or did something that made these problems worse. So here are my examples.

Buffy/Riley: Although Dawn meant well by telling Riley that Buffy didn't get as worked up over him as she did with Angel. It did put a very heavy strain on the Buffy/Riley relationship. Things were never the same after their trip to the carousel!

Tara/Willow: She was the one who reminded Tara about the fight she'd had with Willow. It was then that Tara decided she needed to leave Willow because of what Dawn had said. Ok so Willow shouldn't have done the magic but she was the one who made the issue resurface.

Xander/Anya: If you remember Dawn was the one who let slip to Anya that Xander had run off. Ok so Xander shouldn't have run off. But Dawn once again made matters worse by letting the woman he was meant to marry know he'd left. whether it was accidental or on purpose it doesn't matter the truth is DAwn always manages to ruin perfectly happy relationships.

So what do you guys think?

Although Dawn did seem to make matters worse... what she said was the truth ... and I think Tara deserved to know.... (as much as i love Tillow!) and Xander had run off... which was also the truth... and Dawn didn't know about the whole spell Willow had done... so it isn't her 'fault' but I don't agree Dawn 'runined happy relationships' i think she made things worse or said the wrong the things at the wrong times.. but it wasn't her fault..

So, it would have been a good thing if Willow had kept playing with Tara's memory and put spells on her? ;) No really, Dawn didn't do anything wrong, nothing was her fault in any way, she shouldn't be blamed for telling the truth.

Buffy/Riley: They would have broken up eventually. Dawn just told Riley the truth. I don't think it was fair of Buffy to string him on as long as she did. Dawn didn't break them up. There were tons of other issues there.

Tara/Willow: It's a GOOD thing that Dawn reminded Tara of her fight with Willow. Willow was kind of messed up, she was casting spells on her girlfriend, which really isn't okay. Tara needed to know. It's not Dawn's fault they broke up, either. Willow needed help, and Tara felt violated.

Xander/Anya: I don't know what to say about this one...Dawn told Anya that Xander had run off? Yeah...but he ran off. That's what broke them up, him ditching her at the altar. I'm sure Anya would have figured it out eventually that he wasn't showing up. I don't really see what Dawn has to do with that. :)
