Jessica is a fragile mess without a stove; her culinary repertoire includes a "famous phone call to the Chinese place."

Xander develops a crush on Buffy quickly, but it is not reciprocated. He gradually begins a turbulent and ambiguous relationship with Cordelia Chase after they are thrown together in several life-or-death situations, though he had been the treasurer of the "We Hate Cordelia" club. Being seen with Xander costs Cordelia her position among Sunnydale High's fashionable clique, and she dumps him on Valentine's Day. Xander retaliates by coercing Amy Madison to cast a love spell, which misfires: for a few hours, until the spell is broken, Xander finds himself irresistible to every girl, woman, and female vampire in sight – except Cordelia, who, realizing how much Xander cares for her, reunites with him in defiance of her former friends (cf. "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered").

After graduating from high school, Xander chooses not to enroll in college. He sets upon a cross-country trip inspired by Jack Kerouac's On the Road that ends when his car breaks down. He spends most of that summer working as a dishwasher in a male strip club to pay for a new car. One night, when a dancer falls sick, Xander reluctantly takes to the stage, a story which he says "No power on earth will force me to reveal". He returns to Sunnydale and moves into his parents' basement, for which he has to pay rent. In the fourth season, he takes a series of odd jobs as a food vendor, a bartender, a phone-sex operator, and a deliveryman. Xander eventually pursues a more stable career in carpentry and construction work. He moves into his own apartment with Anya, where he stays until the end of the series.

Xander falls in love with Anya in Season Four after much persuasion, and proposes to her at the end of Season Five. However, his doubts about their future together – made even worse by a visit from a demon that pretended to be his future self, showing him a bitter future where he apparently killed Anya – cause him to leave her at the altar. They still love each other, however, when his left eye is gouged out by Caleb near the end of Season Seven. Xander's love does not survive the finale because Anya is killed by a Bringer's sword, and her body remains in the new Sunnydale High's ruins as the empty town is swallowed by the earth.

Powers & abilities

Xander represents the importance of everyday humans in the struggle against evil since he has proven that even an "average" person can make a difference and save the world. He possesses no special powers or abilities, but he gains much experience from battling by Buffy's side. As Buffy explains to the Watchers' Council, Xander has clocked more field time than all of the Watchers combined (cf. "Checkpoint"). His powers of persuasion and empathy are often his most useful assets. For example, Xander saves the world from Willow using only his words in the episode "Grave."

Trivia

• In the DVD commentary for the episode "Dirty Girls", writer Drew Goddard mentions there was talk of killing off Xander towards the end of Season 7 and having The First Evil assume Xander's appearance when conversing with Buffy for the remainder of the season. This was ultimately decided against since Xander was thought to be too important to the series, and that his death occurring so late in the season would leave little time to deal with it correctly, and that throughout the series' run, Xander was the one character who never wavered, and to punish that characteristic with death would send a message the staff wasn't trying to get across.

Romantic relationships

• Buffy Summers — Seeing her on her first day at Sunnydale High caused Xander to crash into a railing, literally falling head over heels. Buffy, however, sees Xander only as a friend, and over time, they have become surrogate siblings (the only exception to this was in the episode "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered", see below).
• Miss Natalie French — The real teacher was born in 1907 and taught for a few decades. Her name was stolen by a demonic she-mantis whose pheromones attracted many of Sunnydale's males. She drugged Xander's drink at her house and intended to mate with him before beheading him. Buffy managed to stop her and save Xander in time.
• Ampata — The Incan mummy girl wanted to live a life she never had the chance to, and fell for Xander as he was the first male she'd ever met who didn't treat her as a princess, but as a person. However, her love with Xander was short-lived when she attempted to kiss him (and thus draining him of life to continue her own), when he offered himself to her to stop her draining Buffy and Willow. In the end, however, she collapsed from lack of energy, and never reached any of them.
• Every woman in Sunnydale — When Amy Madison performed the magic spell to make Cordelia fall madly in love with Xander just so he could break up with her and hurt her, it backfired and made every woman (vampire Drusilla included) in Sunnydale except Cordelia fall in love with the "irresistible" Xander Harris; as a result, Xander was nearly killed by a veritable army of demented women who were resolved to kill Xander if they couldn't have him for themselves, and Buffy was briefly turned into a rat by a jealous Amy.
• Cordelia Chase — Cordelia and Xander meet as children and are antagonistic from the beginning. Their romantic relationship in high school faces several obstacles, including peer pressure from Cordelia's clique (she is ostracized from her social circle), Cordelia's self-involved and insensitive manner, and Xander's unresolved attraction to Willow, Buffy, and Faith. When Cordelia discovers Xander and Willow kissing in the basement of an abandoned factory (where they are being held prisoner), she ends their relationship for good. By the end of Season Three, they have settled into a hesitant friendship (for example, Xander buys her a prom dress after he discovers that her family has lost its wealth). After graduation, their lives take different paths; he remains in Sunnydale and fights evil with Buffy, and she moves to Los Angeles to become an actress (see Angel) and "helps the helpless" with Angel.
• Willow Rosenberg — After a brief romantic involvement in elementary school, Xander and Willow are best friends for years. Xander shares a moment of tenderness with Willow during the boring summer of 1997, which is ended by Buffy's return. Later, in the show's third season, Xander and Willow began a secret romance while he was dating Cordelia and she was dating Oz. This ends when Cordelia and Oz rescue Xander and Willow, who have been kidnapped by Spike, and discover them kissing. However, at some level, Xander retains deep feelings for Willow, these feelings are what he reaches out to in order to turn Dark Willow from her path of destroying the world, simply by refusing to leave as she commands him and bringing up all the incidents in their life they had shared and the friendship between them.
• Faith Lehane — Some weeks after his relationship with Cordelia dissolved, Xander found himself helping Faith fight a demon one night in the episode "The Zeppo." After the battle, an adrenaline-fueled Faith took Xander back to her apartment and had sex with him; this was Xander's first sexual encounter. Weeks later, after Faith had gone rogue and killed a man, Xander confronted her about her actions. Faith began simulating rough sex and then started to strangle him before being interrupted by Angel.
• Anya Jenkins — Xander's most long-term relationship, despite such problems as Anya's nigh-on insatiable sexual appetite and total disregard for normal social conventions such as not talking about sex in public. Despite this, however, the two fell deeply in love, coming close to getting married, and retained strong feelings for each other. Anya passes away in season 7, however, Xander and Anya still were in love.
• Nancy — After being frustrated with his own relationship problems with Anya and others in the past, Xander luckily runs into Nancy and, along with the gang, protects her from a giant worm-like demon that was specifically attacking her. Xander walks her home, and both new at dating, they awkwardly ask each other out. However, after finding out the demon is Nancy's ex-boyfriend who was turned into the worm-like creature by Xander's own ex-fiancee, Anya, the two never date.
• Lissa — Approximately a year after his breakup with Anya, Xander takes another dip in the dating pool, and impulsively asks out Lissa, a beautiful woman he meets at a hardware store. Their date goes well until Lissa ties Xander to a torture wheel, reveals herself to be a demon, and cheerfully prepares to use Xander as a human sacrifice. Xander, before being rescued, ponders what causes him to keep getting involved with female demons.
