Well, it did start out that way. But that changed shortly after the appearance of Dawn. Not that its her fault. The writing went in that direction.
"During Joyce's sickness and following death, Buffy tried to contact Hank leaving "messages all over the place," with no response; at the time, the last she'd heard from him was that he was in Spain with his secretary. After her resurrection, Buffy described Hank as a "shiftless and absentee father".
Dawn: I feel safe with you. Spike: Take that back!
It was such an amusing scene. Along with the other scenes when he was protecting the "Summer" family. In stead of being a threat towards Buffy.
