Man and woman Quote by Katie Ashley
““She wants me for sex but not for a relationship, okay?” Aidan’s mouth gaped open. “You mean, she’s acting like…a dude?” “If you mean that she has pretty much refused to go to dinner with me or any other honourable event that a man and woman can partake in on a date and instead she would rather pursue a strictly physical relationship, then the answer is yes.” “My God, it’s like she’s turned into the old me,” Aidan muttered.””
