Queer as Folk, Season 1

David:
I told Mikey you'd be all right but he had to come running back.

Brian:
What can I say, he's a sweetheart.

David:
That's because you're all that matters to him. You're his world, his life. Everything he thinks about, everything he dreams about, everything he knows.

Brian:
He's my best friend since we were 14.

David:
That's 16 years of waiting. He's been waiting so long he actually thanks he's happy. But you and I both know that he's never gonna get what he really wants, is he?

Brian:
Well what is that, Doc?

David:
For you to fuck him! And don't tell me you don't know it... and you love knowing it, don't you?

Brian:
You've been around for what, a week? You think you know him? You don't.

David:
I'd like to. But I never will as long as you're around. Maybe I should just disappear. You'd probably like that and he probably wouldn't think twice about me. But I'm not going to. I'm not going to disappear. Because I want him. Even more than you don't want me to have him. So if you're really his best friend... give him a chance to be happy. To have a life. His own life. Let him go.
