(Bel Powley).<\/p>\n<p>Read on for everything you need to know about the ending of Everything I Know About Love.<\/p> <h2><strong>What happened at the end of Everything I Know About Love?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The seven-part finale began with Maggie deciding to extend her work trip to New York for a few days (all very meta, given that she was in New York to film the season finale of the hit TV show she works on).<\/p>\n<p>Maggie was already struggling with Birdy\u2019s decision to move out and live with her boyfriend Nathan (\u201cI feel like you\u2019re breaking up with me,\u201d Maggie told her over the phone), and the isolation of the big city coupled with a series of mishaps \u2013 she lost her passport and broke her phone \u2013 meant that she was lonelier than ever.<\/p>\n<p>She joined a dating app, and hooked up with a French guy \u2013 only for him to try to force her to have sex with his housemate instead while he watched.<\/p>\n<p>Just when it seemed there was no salvaging her week in New York, Maggie met Patrick (played by Cameron Cuffe), an American with whom she shared an amazing 48-hours.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick had recently suffered a break-up and he ended up asking Maggie about her own \u201cbreak-up\u201d with Birdy, allowing her to share her hurt feelings and talk about all the things she loves most about her best friend.<\/p>\n<div
