Actually, I found the end of the Fool's trilogy to be quite satisfying. I think that Fitz had both learned to pursue what he wants, but also to let go of what he knows is finished.
One impression I had from him throughout the entire story was that he was both damaged by the stolen memories, but also by the fact that he could never let go of Molly. I felt that it was both these things that stopped him from building up a relationship with anyone else. I was very happy to read about his acceptance of the Fool's disappearance, because sometimes loving someone means you know when to let them go.
I think Fitz knows that the Fool and he will always be the best of friends, even without being in each other's presence, and that he can be content with that.
