That line is so poignant to me, and I feel it's one of the central obstacle Mulder has to actually acting on his feelings to Scully. It's like he wants to be that man for her, the one who can be open and romantic, the one who can listen to her weird-ass prom night stories. But he just can't, it's not who he is. All he knows how to talk about his conspiracies! And aliens! And work! And I think he thinks that she deserves someone who can give her normalcy.
I agree with all of the above. The first time I watched the ep, I missed that last integral line for some reason. It's so important and so description of his problem, you're right.
It's almost like... all that fanfic that makes Mulder get all romantic is just wrong... He's just so lucky that Scully loves him even though he's completely work and alien conspiracy obsessed. ♥♥ It makes it better that he has a good sense of humor. :)
Sucks though because I'm pretty sure that butt doesn't actually belong to Duchovny. Must be his double since you can see him coming in the door! But still... ;)
Scully totally would have let Not!Mulder kiss her.
And Mulder's face as he walks through the door <3 You can see everything he's thinking "OMFG THAT'S ME" "He is trying to kiss my lady! Jealousy!" "She is letting him wtf" "What does he have that I don't? I mean, he is ME!"

Le sigh. These two.
