Who are you like, Willow or Tara

[Tiggrscorpio]

I am definitely a combination of both. I am extremely shy like Tara. And, like Tara, I was mature beyond my years. I have Willow's love for history and learning. And, unfortunately, I also have Willow's sometimes short fuse of a temper.

------------------
She's my everything!

[breaking]

um...i think i'm kinda more like Tara. I'm the mature one and a good laugh when i'm with friends and i'm comfortable. But since i've been little when i get nervous i have a uncontrolable stutter, i hate reading out in class and we're reading Hamlet at the moment...it's not pretty to watch!

------------------
where do we go from here?

[muflaelle]

hi, i'm a newcomer here! i think i'm more like tara: i'm shy and (i can be) quiet, and like tara (at the beginning) i can easily feel excluded...not very self confident too...but i study computering, so that's more like willow!
ok, i'm a mix of both!

Ok, I'm still a newbie here...so if I boo boo, please be gentle and let me know.

I'm sitting at work keeping myself entertained by reading the Kitten Board, and started to think and wonder...who I was more like (ok, lots of free-time tonight).

I can identify with the shyness of both, but I'm going to have to put myself in the Willow (the early years) category...shy, insecure, computer geek.

So now I pose the question to you - who are you more like - Willow or Tara???

Fun question! I think I am more like Tara. I'm a little shy when I first meet people but i am confident and assured when I need to be. Also, a lot of the people around me don't get me or my jokes (I'm thinking of Tara and her insect reflection joke here.).

I would say I'm more like Willow, once you get to know me. I'm a nerd, was an even bigger nerd in high school, I'm prne to babbling and I'm a big spaz. I'm really shy as well, though, so I probably seem more like Tara on first meeting...in the way that I don't talk in front of new people very well, if at all. Fun question SlayerTazz, thanks

I probably act more like Tara - shy, slight stutter sometimes ,mature, but I also have Willow like qualities - computers, books, not the greatest cook.

[Pudds]

I am absolutely nothing like Tara, although she has many of the qualities I admire in women. While I'm not what you would call outgoing, I'm not shy either, I have no problem looking strangers in the eye. I can be calm in some situations, but I'm generally quite volatile, although strangely not overly confrontational.
The only real similarity between myself and Willow is that i tend to babble when I get excited and i do sometimes get over excited. When that happens everything I know about a topic comes spewing out of my mouth.
I'm just average I guess, which is something that can't be said for our girls!

[tommo]

I am like Willow. I'm definitely a breast gal.

I guess some of you already knew that...

Everyone say's I am more like Tara, cause I stutter and I am a little shy, and hide my feelings and stuff.. so yea, I think I relate to Tara more!

Tara: Noboby messes with my girl

[TotalImmortal]

I'd say that I am more like Tara, I am shy keep to myself unless its is with people i know well, but like tara i have open up as i get to know people better

[Willow Rocks]

Willow defently, i've got the babbeling down to a t!

Though my friends did say after watching the Amber Benson interview on the big breakfast that if i dyed my hair purple (or whatever colour it was) i would be exactly the same as her, especily the laughing!

[PandoraSpocks]

I am definitly more like Tara. I was alot like Tara from Hush, Hair hiding the face and sitting on the floor, too shy and scared to voice my opinion. I am proud to say, that after a long time, and baby steps, I'm alot more evolved. I still have a long way to go, because Tara seems to know what she wants and goes after it, I still don't know what I want. He character has evolved alot faster and further than I. How ever my wardrobe has gotten better, not much, but some.

[amberisadamngoddess]

I think im a bit like both of them. Im Tara in the way that she is kind and cares about evryone and is the one people come to with their problems. But im like Willow in the sense of im confidant and assertive - and i babble

[capricornmist]

Hmmmmm,

I suppose I relate to Tara, shy, sweet, innocent but with a sexy, devilish streak! Oh yeah!

[Dazey]

I want to be Tara, but I'm afraid I am more Willow. I realized it the first time I saw "Doppelgängland".

VampWillow: This world's no fun.

Willow: You noticed that too?

Ouch. Yep, Willow and her deep-seated pain and rage at the world. That's me.

Plus, red hair.

[Under Her Spell]

No matter how many times I read the title of this thread, it still says "Who would you more like, Willow or Tara?" to me.

[The Next Tara Maclay]

I"m both, I can be like Willow and I can be like Tara...

[oncemorewithfeeling]

I would say I am deffinately more like
Willow.
I even got a shouting at for paying too much attention to the banned book "DarkHolde"
well it's only fluffy magic

[VampWillow]

I'd have to say I'm a mixture of both. I used to be terribly shy and insecure, walking with my head down and everything. But after high school started I came out of my shell, I'm still shy but only a bit and only around people I don't know well. So in that way I'm like Tara. I'm like Willow in the way I babble when I'm happy or whenever actually. I'm a geek and clumsy (sp.) I always run into door frames, see about the rambling.

Well... I'm a complete willow... in fact that's the only reason I began to watch this show, because I loved the idea of a really cute nerd with large unrequited crushes (I started watching in season 1)...
Tara's fantastic, though. If I could meet one like her, I would.

What a fun question! I would have to say I'm more like Willow, with a dash of Tara! Isn't it funny how just about everyone who posted here has one thing in common, we are all shy! Just an interesting thought.

[Morphine]

I don't believe I'm like either one of them... too many little details that make them completely unique.

But, I do ressemble more Tara both physically and mentally. I'm the strong quiet type, with the bursting out laughing for no reason, and the no-one-understands-aword-I-say (see my sig), and the down-to-earth and the stuttering... actually, talking too fast'll do that to you.

But Tara... I think she was written to be adorable and kind and and witty and sexy yet shy... it must have made the "sexual transition" of Willow easier for reluctant biased close-minded fans. So, she's more of a model to me than a comparison...

But it's surely nice to see we all have a bit of them in us.

Tara: No, see, 'cause your insect reflection represents your insignificance... in terms of the karmic cycle.

[mellowstrung]

Hmm...I had to think about this one for awhile. When I do talk I ramble (and ninjitsugrrl people don't get my jokes either. My closest friend doesn't even get them), and I'm shyish, but other than that I'm not like either one. I suck at computers and schoolastics, I'm way too mellow and, well, I really don't want to admit this, but I'm very self centered. A loyal friend I am, but incredibly self involved.

[kumarihpx]

More like Willow here. And, I love it.

Ditto, except for the only-reason-i-watch-the-show part. i can see a lot of my high school self in willow's high school self - it's funny how you can kinda miss the unrequited crushes when you have the luxury of looking back on them from a few years' distance. quote:

[alylurver]

i am like willow coz i love computers

[Bag O'Bones]

*peeks out of lurkdom*

i am a strange willow / rosie o'donnell combination . . . yes that is possible. i am a totall spaz, computer geek, who babbles, and has created a strange vocabulary. in fact, the whole reason that i got into buffy (first season) is because i related to willow so much, being a shy nerd with a crush on her best friend. and as will has come more out of her shell i have too.

and the rosie side is only around my friends cuz i can be really loud, obnoxious, and have a naughty sense of humor. (plus i am alot like her physically).

in conclusion, my 2 cents have been put in the bucket.

[kittymccat]

I have qualities of both Willow and Tara.
Like Tara I'm shy and very very maternal - I mother everyone.

But like Willow I ramble on and have a quirky sense of humor. Also, I love books but I'm not very good with computers as yet.

I think it's wonderful that us shy people have such beautiful role models.
