when talking about fleabag, we all talk about "I love you"/" it'll pass" but what we don't talk about maybe cause it's implied, maybe cause just quoting this encapsulates the feeling but listen,
the lines go fleabag saying "I love you" and the hot priest says "it'll pass" and THEN HE SAYS "i love you too"
idk if you have to name it to know it, but the fact that he confesses his love for her, the fact that he chose God, the fact that despite right person-wrong time or maybe wrong person-right time, despite all that, it'll pass. The love wasn't unrequited but the choice was. the subsequent grief, heartbreak, it'll pass
this is just earth-shattering, cause the only person that truly saw her, loved her for what she was, didn't choose her, and no matter what it'll pass. as if the greatest heartbreak of life is that it keeps moving on and you have to move on with it POETIC CINEMA

i think fleabag's finale is actually up to interpretation rather than being clear cut and it's even more sad and tragic than the majority of takes read it as.
the fact that fleabag kept the statue and the priest was still being followed by the fox could mean that it will, in fact, not pass.
and when the priest was talking about love, he was talking about fleabag, not god. and the priest hated how this love made him feel - frightened, unstable, creepy, obsessed. so, instead of following his heart that would be an easy path, he made what he thought was the right choice, for both him and fleabag.
but again, he is followed by the fox that could represent either his past that he is trying to escape from or his general doubts about his priesthood. the priest, just like fleabag, is a mess who made a lot of wrong choices and it's possible that god is the wrong but easier choice, an escape, as well.
fleabag, on the other hand, is still stuck in her lonely existence, clinging to her love for her mother and boo because these two women were the only people who accepted and loved her as she is until she met the priest who left her too.
so, in short, these characters are stuck in their pasts, not able to really change anything about their lives.
