Pierce, math prodigy M. Geraldo then tells her that they did reach out to all three of them and they declined to comment, leaving Sue seemingly speechless. We Built This Glee Club. Santana, like Quinn , has been primarily shown to be something of a cheerleading stereotype.
Quick to pass judgment, and insult and even bully other people. She views her bitchy behavior as honesty and sees nothing wrong with it. She is proud of being the top bitch. Santana seems to find no issue flaunting her spot on the social ladder that is High School l or to be promiscuous to remain on top. At the beginning of series, she acts more like a sidekick to Quinn, following her orders and usually letting her do all the talking. This changes when Quinn is kicked off the Cheerios by Sue due to being pregnant, thus making Santana the head cheerleader.
Santana also demonstrates occasional signs of kindness, usually with the Glee Club after a good performance or in her interactions with Brittany. Deep down Santana is less concieted than she appears to be. She has admitted that she loves being in Glee Club , and that it is the best part of her day. She follows up this confession with instructions that if anyone asks, they are to say that she hates it, showing that she cares a lot about her image.
Santana has grown to be a better person through Glee, she actively admits to hating the people in the club before joining, but now views them as her equals, closest friends, and even considers them her family whom she is highly protective of.
Now she is more caring and compassionate toward others, for instance, comforting Rachel, her former enemy when Rachel had her pregnancy scare. Still, she can be seen as an antagonist because of her mean streak which is mainly displayed in the show.
She is extremely emotional at certain times for ridiculous reasons losing tanning privileges or missing out on the Breadstix passes , and is often comforted by Brittany. Santana gets jealous quite easily, especially when it concerns her sexual partners. It is very possible that she does this because she is simply lonely, which is why she wants to show off her image and reputation. Santana is also known to be manipulative and persuasive. For example, when Brittany chose Artie over her she lied to Brittany about cheating so she and Brittany could continue to intimate.
Santana tries to get what she wants through scheming, always making plans that would have results in her favor, but most times it backfires. For example, In Born This Way , she made a plan to get more votes for Prom Queen that includes: Using Karofsky's sexually to blackmail him to being her 'Beard' and to stop being a bully so she could get Kurt to enroll be in McKinley.
However, Kurt ended up winning the crown. Santana can be considered the most perceptive character on the show. For instance, when she found out Quinn was cheating on Sam with Finn just by noticing the changes, small changes in Quinn and Finn's behavior.
She uses this ability to her advantage. When it comes to friendships and romantic relationships she takes them very seriously. Whenever someone tries to hurt those she cares for she becomes very defensive, examples including confronting Sebastian and the Warblers, alone, when he slushied Blaine resulting in Blaine having eye surgery.
Santana acts confident, but it has been proven on few occasions she's actually insecure, like when she got a boob job over the summer so people would notice her more. She gets incredibly hostile when her weaknesses are exposed, examples including attacking Quinn in the hall for telling Sue about her "summer surgery" and having Santana knocked down to the bottom of the pyramid.
It's also been shown that while she has no problem insulting and putting down others, she can "dish it out, but can't take it," and gets upset when the glee club members turn on her, showing she cares a lot about what people think of her.
Santana describes herself as a "closeted lesbian" in Born This Way. She is seen to be something of a nymphet in the first two seasons. It would make sense in the context, though, because Brittany had proposed a duet by famous out singer Melissa Etheridge. In addition to her relationship with Brittany, Santana's sexuality is addressed in the fifteenth episode of season Two, Sexy , after Holly Holliday returns to McKinley as a Sex Ed teacher.
She says she "doesn't know" when she is asked if she thinks she might be a lesbian, but admits having been attracted to both men and women in the past. Santana, after asking Holly Holliday help to express her feelings through a song Landslide , finally admits to being in love with Brittany, and though Brittany admits to loving her back, she can't bring herself to break up with Artie - who she also loves - to be with Santana.
After the song, and deeply considering her feelings for Brittany, she explicitly compared her situation with Kurt's, tells Brittany "I don't want to be with Sam, or Finn, or any of those other guys; I just want you! Brad Falchuk was quoted as saying in upcoming episodes regarding Brittana, they want "Santana to come to grips with being a lesbian and how she deals with it.
Santana is a lesbian. She might not be ready to come out yet, but she is. When Brittany gave her a shirt she made her for the Born This Way number that said "Lebanese" supposed to say lesbian , Santana tells Brittany that she can't tell anyone about it and doesn't perform in the number.
But, she is later seen in the audience wearing the "Lebanese" shirt. The "lesbian" storyline continues into the third season, and leads to Santana being pushed out of the closet by Finn. She fully admits to it and later tells her parents that she is a lesbian. In Sexy , Santana admits to Brittany that she loves her and wants to be with her.
Brittany says that she loves her too, but has feelings for Artie too. Santana leaves, angry and upset. In Original Song , Brittany approches Santana outside her locker asking if she did anything wrong. Santana still upset from being rejected by her, is hostile and says 'I don't know. Did you? Its fines, Its your loss cause now I get the chance to write an awesome heterosexual song about Sam that we're gonna sing at regionals.
Brittany also tries to help Santana come to term with her being a lesbian and makes her a mispelt shirt saying 'Lebanese' instead of leasbian for their Glee Club task.
Brittany storms off saying that ' I do love you, clearly you don't love you as much as I do or you'd put the shirt on and dance with me. In Rumours , Brittany, on her internet talkshow, says that Santana plays for another team meaning that she now plays for New Direction and not the Cheerios.
Mad, Santana approaches Brittany arguing that she could've phrased it differently.

Santana assures him their relationship is going strong. Santana asks if they can 'talk about the thing that they never talk about'. Asking whether they are dating or not, Brittany says that she thought they were on a date, just like last week when they were sharing a bath together.
She also stated that last year she said 'If I'm single and you're single, we'd mingle'. In Mash Off Santana finally makes her relationship with Brittany public after being outed by Finn , and reveals to her family that she is a lesbian. Their relationship continues for the rest of the season.
In Season Four , Santana ends their relationship in The Break-Up , stating that their long distance relationship isn't working and that she'll always love her the most.
