BUFFY: Don’t psyche 101 me! Not now. Not after everything that… Nobody’s ever known me the way you do. Nobody. I’ve opened up to you in ways that I’ve never opened up to… God, you’re just sitting back there thinking that none of this means anything to me.
RILEY: I never said that.
BUFFY: Because it obviously doesn't mean anything to you. Do you really think so little of me–
RILEY: Buffy–
BUFFY: No! No. Do you think that I spent the last year with you because you had super powers? If that's what I wanted, then I'd be dating Spike.

~~BtVS 5x04 “Out Of My Mind”~~
