Buffy herself describes it as her *bad* and while it's also bad to lie to Willow doesn't the fact that she does indicate that she feels guilty about it?
I'm pretty sure she feels bad about it, but from there to us thinking it's all that significant is a big step. And taking into account that the context of the talk she and Willow were having with the demon, well, I'm not sure what shames Buffy more, that she ignored human laws, or that the demon was pretty right, Buffy lies to her best friend, Willow cheats on her lover, yep, demon right.
And Willow's reaction (being the only one we've seen) does nothing to give me the impression that robbing a bank is bad in any way but the practical one, of pissing people off.
Buffy S7, I have a hard time discussing any of it, because I so very much dislike it, but let's say the easiest way to get me to dislike a character is to have them say something like that. Unless of course it's Judge Dredd. Which I don't really like anyway, unless it's in the "What an entertaining fascist character" way.
As for how Buffy sees herself, it doesn't matter. She can see herself anyway she wants to, just like Andrew can, it's how other people see her that matters.
Me, personally, I'd love to think she's human, with nothing but a few demon powers on top of it, but I'm not so sure of that. I'm not sure that's even what the series post S4 is telling us. I can see Voll's point.
