Quinn to Deb:
"There aren't many women like you, I know that. You're more like... a guy."
"A guy?"
 "You don't play games where I have to figure out what you're thinking. You just say it. Usually with a lot of really filthy words I've never heard before."

What can I do?

We must have been stone crazy
when we thought we were just friends
'Cause I miss you, baby
and I've got those feelings again
I guess I'm all confused about you
I feel so in love, oh baby, what can I do?
