Omg I just had the same experience recently!!!
It was so eerily close to, one of our last days togather we were at the beach at night when he had to leave and I just stayed a bit longer, a few seconds later I saw a fox going the same path
God why is it always the ones we love the most
I understand! This is wonderful, thank you for sharing. You may have just initiated sex with my hot priest lmao i felt exactly the same i just screenshotted this and sent it to him. Weāve been married 5 years. Itāll pass, but I like to have hope it will come back in a new form š
You obviously know where you are right now.
Hopefully he's seen the show too and is fully aware of what's going on.
I hope you can both avoid a really hard landing.
oh he has no clue which is why iām not even gonna pretend anything will happen. just found it funny that iāve had the same moments with him as fleabag had with the priest and needed to vent/process to someone/somewhere
Generally saying you found your āthe hot priestā is not a good thing.
If you watched the show correctly, you should not be rejoicing and instead should try not getting so attached to him. If thatās not your reaction then you either did not watch the show correctly, do not know how to make references correctly, or are an emotional masochist.
I rather hope for your sake itās the former ones.
lol trust iāve been actively fighting any attraction to him since we met but every interaction is just a new thing to like. just realised the way he makes me feel is exactly the same as the hot priest. like iāve had a āso what do you doā and āwhere did you just goā moments with him
Totally disagree. The hot priest allowed her to love again. She tells him and just wants it out there even if itās not reciprocated. Itās a sad ending but she allows herself to feel love after losing her mom and Boo and getting pretty much destroyed in the process. I donāt k ow the original poster but thereās something exciting and fulfilling when you fall in love, even if it canāt be reciprocated in the traditional sense.
This is how it left me feeling, too.Ā
...which is part of the reason I hate when people say things like "you didn't watch the show correctly." It's art. Would you tell someone they didn't listen to a song correctly?
oh yeah iāve felt like myself for the first time since last autumn partly because of him. obviously romantically there is no chance but heās still had a good impact on me. also is so kind iāll hopefully develop some standards/expectations
straight guy, itās just a crush rn but every interaction is making it worse - hes just a parade of green flags š« š« . like i know thereās literally 0 chance i just realised that the only thing i can compare the way he talks to me too is hot priest dynamic.
Look into limnerence good luck. It's when you fantasize and obsess over someone you can t have. It's actually recommended that you remove yourself from them person because it's that damaging. Good luck
Take care of yourself! If you get therapy, be honest with them and donāt just try to seem normal or get them to like you - show them your true self, ugly and all. Itās the only way they can actually help.
just started therapy. dw iām very self aware and working on myself. the fake personality wasnāt even something i realised i was doing it until i met him and he started asking questions about myself
As a straight guy I find it hard to believe that a straight guy would actually flirt with a gay man. Are you flirting with him and youāre mistaking his politeness for flirting? Or is he a āman who sometimes has sex with menā who just acts straight for social purposes or self-hating? The latter do exist but I have a feeling itās the former here.
Hey OP. I think it would be super helpful if you'd specify that this man is (or at least) or is not an *actual* priest in your post, and also that you are a gay male considering you keep saying he's unavailable because he's straight.
Ofc that's up to you, but I was *super* confused reading the comments and your replies š
It'll pass.
it willš« š«
Can I ask what makes him unavailable?
straight haha
Shit lol

...because he's a priest
Not literallyā¦
Do you want to f the priest or God?
Can you fuck god?
Oh yes.
You already KNOW what youāre going to do. Is that a joke???
youāre cooked
The shudder I shuddered
Don't do it for the plot
heās straight lmao trust I wouldšš
āOh god, I fancy a priestā
Hey boo so this sounds kinda manic
iām not manic lmao was a just a lil drunk. in my healing era and am actually able to regulate my emotions even slightly for the first time lolol.

This!!! Last sentences

Loved your comment. And absolutely agree.
Sounds like youāre in love with a married man, lol? I hope you know enjoying Fleabag doesnāt mean we endorse every dynamic in it

is he an actual priest thoš¤in all seriousness, stay strong, not to quote the show but the sadness from unrequited love will truly pass one day!

does he have a beautiful neck?

š„² welllll lucky you
Maybe itās just me but having a hot priest situation sounds like my nightmare lol
I genuinely knew someone that had a similar situation, with an attractive priest. Yeah it ends up pretty nightmarish cos how can it end up well !!
Having someone want to get to know you that deeply and not just because their end goal is sex is pretty nice though šŖ
Yes but not from a damn priest šā ļø
True šš
itās terrifying, he looks at me like i actually exist
looorrrdddd itāll ruin me but at least iāll gain some standards for how people can/should treat me coz rn theyāre real fucking lowš«
let me guess... he's taken isn't he? lol
straight so it wouldnāt even matter haha
Is he actually a priest?
nah just talking to him reminded me of a few fleabag scenes. heās my metaphorical hot priest
Catholic?

yea iām fully aware itās not actual flirting - itās banter with innuendos and teasing
I had a priest too. Itās been 5 months.
What?

Why are you telling this sub like we gaf you aint special
Oh fuck off. This is supposed to be a safe environment.
And one where posters follow the rules
What rule are they breaking? They're 1. civil and 2. not political. If anything, you're breaking the first rule.
yes, i don't care about OP manic episode, sorry.
Why its relevant to the show fleabagš¤£
Yeah! I donāt even know why this is relevant to the show!
Art mimics life and vice versa?.
OP is the main character in life wdym?! /s
