Glee Character Guide

Blaine Anderson is a recurring character in season 2 and a main character in seasons 3–6. He is introduced as an openly gay student at Dalton Academy and a member of The Warblers, a Sectionals and Regionals rival of New Directions. The character is a love interest for Kurt, though in the episode "Blame It on the Alcohol", he and Rachel have a brief fling, resulting in Blaine reasserting his identity as gay.
Blaine becomes a role model for Kurt, who develops a crush on him. During "Original Song", Blaine realizes he reciprocates Kurt's feeling, and they kiss. At the beginning of season three, Blaine decides to transfer to McKinley to be with Kurt, and joins New Directions. Blaine is injured during a confrontation between New Directions and The Warblers, and has eye surgery to repair the damage. His relationship with Kurt is later strained by Kurt's eagerness to leave for New York after graduation, which would separate the two at least until Blaine graduated the following year, but the two patch things up, and are still a couple at the end of the school year.
At the beginning of his senior year, Blaine becomes the lead singer of New Directions and successfully prompts Kurt to follow his New York City dreams. Blaine successfully runs for senior class president. Kurt inadvertently pulls away from Blaine due to his Vogue.com internship; distraught, Blaine cheats on Kurt. After confessing to Kurt of his infidelity, Kurt severs all ties.
Hunter Clarington, the new captain of the Dalton Academy Warblers, attempts to convince Blaine to return to The Warblers. Blaine becomes conflicted, but Sam Evans ultimately convinces him that, despite having done a bad thing, Blaine is still a good person and an important member of New Directions.
Kurt begins to mend their relationship in "Thanksgiving" and they spend Christmas together in New York City. He later hooks up with Kurt at Will's wedding where Kurt insists that they are not going to become a couple. He becomes best friends with Sam, developing a minor crush on him that he later overcomes. Tina harbors a crush on Blaine, but she realizes her folly and becomes his friend. He, along with Sam reveal the cheating done by the Warblers and earn New Directions a slot at Regionals, which they eventually win.
He later reconciles with Kurt and proposes marriage to him, getting help from several other show choirs. Later, he auditions for NYADA and gets in. After graduation, he moves in with Kurt in New York. But later, both of them decide to have their own space for some time and Blaine decides to share a room with Sam, who has also moved to New York. Kurt asks Blaine to sing a song with him in front of an influential NYADA donor, June Dolloway, who comes to the school for a dance studio inaugural. June takes interest in Blaine and decides to organize a one-night-only show for Blaine. Blaine wants to involve Kurt in it but she refuses. Blaine lies to Kurt and tells him that he will also get to sing a song in the showcase. When Kurt discovers the lie, he is very upset, but they ultimately reconcile and Kurt decides to support his fiancé. At the showcase, Blaine invites Kurt to perform a last duet with him much to June's dismay, but she enjoys the performance and praises them. Blaine later moves in with Kurt.
Kurt eventually breaks off their engagement because he does not feel ready for marriage. Blaine becomes depressed, so much so that he does poorly at NYADA and is expelled from school. He returns to Lima and starts coaching the Warblers and he also starts to date Dave Karofsky, which comes as a shock to Kurt when he realizes he still loves Blaine and goes to Lima to get him back. Blaine later gets trapped in an elevator with Kurt, as part of a plan by Sue to get them back together, and she demands they kiss each other to get out, which they eventually do. They kiss again when they sing together during Rachel's house farewell party. Blaine later breaks up with Karofsky and gets back together with Kurt. They get married along with Brittany and Santana. They later move back to New York when Blaine gets accepted into NYU and Kurt returns to NYADA. After five years, both are successful actors, and they also give performances for the LGBT community and teach students to accept everyone. They are about to become fathers, with Rachel as their surrogate.
