In the hit sitcom How I Met Your Mother, Ted Moseby is the center of the show. The series follows his journey on his romantic quest to find his soulmate and live happily ever after, as he tells his children from 2030 about, yep you guessed it, how he met their mother. He goes through plenty of ups and downs throughout the show, from meeting Robin and telling her he was in love on the first date, to getting left at the altar all alone by Stellar.
So, it’s fair to say that Ted has had some pretty sour moments over the nine seasons, and most of them happen to have something to do with his rollercoaster ride with romance. And despite his great friendships, his successful career in architecture, and his eventual happy ending, Ted’s life wasn’t always as perfect as it may have seemed.
10 Left At The Altar
Even though most fans never really cared or even liked Stella and Ted’s relationship, it’s clear that we all felt extremely bad for poor Ted on what was meant to be his special wedding day. To make it even worse, it was all because of his attempt to save the wedding in the first place. After Stella banned Ted from inviting his ‘friend’ Robin to the wedding, Ted struck himself a deal.
To prove that exes can go to each other’s weddings, Ted let Stella invite her ex, Tony. But in a massive twist, after Robin felt too guilty being there and headed back to New York, she saw Stella and Tony hit it off again, ditching Ted at the altar. And no one, not even Ted, deserves that kind of treatment.
9 Time Travelers
In one of the most entertaining episodes of season eight, and maybe even of the entire show, Ted and Barney spend the whole twenty-two minutes of the episode, arguing about whether to go and watch Robots Vs Wrestlers: Legends. While this may sound like a drag, the addition of future versions of themselves makes it all the more fun.
We meet a Barney from twenty years into the future and twenty minutes into the future, while also meeting a Ted from twenty years into the future and from twenty minutes into the future. But, despite the episode being hilarious, the climax leaves us feeling sorry for Ted yet again as it’s revealed the whole argument is just a figment of his imagination and he is actually all alone.
8 Robin & Barney’s engagement
Despite giving his blessing, deep down it was clear that Ted didn’t really want Robin and Barney to get married, and when he received that confirmation message, he was visibly heartbroken. In fact, he even described it to his children as all of the times he has been kicked, punched, or hurt, but a million times worse.
Whether or not you believe Robin and Ted were meant to be with each other, there’s no denying this was a sad moment. Ted was the bigger man and let his two friends be happy together, even though he knew it would hurt him. Hats off to you Ted.
7 A Heartbroken Marshall
College sweethearts, perfect soulmates, and the heart of How I Met Your Mother, Marshall and Lily are one of the most adorable couples to ever set foot in a TV show, so to see the two had broken up was heart-shattering. For Ted, who had known the two since they first met, and became best friends with them both, finding Marshall outside in the rain, holding their engagement ring, must have been tough.
To make it even worse, Ted was in a good mood after he and Robin properly got together. Thankfully, despite his good news, Ted pulled together and was there for his friend when he needed him the most, proving just how much he cared for them both.
6 Zoey
Yes, it was partially Ted’s fault, but he and Zoey were definitely no match for each other. Many obstacles got in the way of their tragic romance, for starters, she was married, and secondly, she repeatedly protested about Ted’s architecture and his most important work, which also led to her thrust her beliefs onto everyone in his life, including his own architecture students.
Thanks to their constant bickering and arguing, the two were never right for each other. At one point, while they were only friends, Ted and Zoey did get along and seemed to have some chemistry, but eventually the glaring signs were there from the beginning.
5 The Never-Ending Robin Romance
Despite his string of relationships in the show, ranging from awful ones like Zoey and Stella to some pretty good and promising ones like Victoria and the mother Tracy, Ted began and ended the series in love with the very same girl, Robin. While they didn’t get off to the best of starts, it was clear the two had great chemistry.
They ended up spending most of the show as best friends, after their initial romantic fling, but this only made their bond stronger. They knew each other’s flaws, likes, interests, and were always there for each other. And seeing as, after all, they went through, the series ended with Ted trying to reignite their romance, maybe Ted and Robin are endgame.
4 The Blue French Horn
In one of the most iconic parts of the very first episode, and eventually the very last episode, Ted attempts to woo Robin with a very special and unique gift, a blue french horn. On their first date at the restaurant ‘Carmichaels’, Robin and Ted both talk about an odd-looking french horn hanging up on the restaurant’s wall.
So, in Ted’s incredibly romantic gesture, he steals the horn for her apartment. The horn popped up a couple of times later in the show and seemed to symbolize their relationship, which took plenty of ups and downs, and eventually, Ted once again appears at Robin’s apartment with the horn all the way in 2030 as he finally realizes that he wants to be with her for the rest of his life.
3 Tracy’s Death
From the very beginning, all fans really wanted to know was who the real mother was. Was it Robin? Was it Victoria? The unsolved mystery left fans pondering for years, and when it was finally revealed, some viewers were left disappointed.
The mother is revealed to be a former economics student Tracy McConnell, and even though it was clear that she and Ted were perfect together, it turned out that she had died six years prior to the 2030 future we had been watching. But, even though it may have been a slightly disappointing twist, watching Ted sit by her side during her illness was a sad moment, and definitely proved how much they loved each other.
2 A Hopeless Romantic
While Marshall had his pretty stable and heart-warming relationship with Lily, and Barney, was well Barney, Ted’s love life was always the most problematic, and the main reason for this was because he was a hopeless romantic. Dreaming of big gestures, love at first sight, and a long-term relationship and family, Ted went into every fling with the highest of expectations, which ultimately was his downfall.
From his constant pestering of Robin, to him dumping Natalie on her birthday, Ted did some pretty annoying things to girls, but did he deserve all the hate? After all, he was just searching for true love.
1 Poor Decision Making
Similar to his hopeless romantic antics, Ted commonly found himself making many stupid and preventable mistakes. He cheated on Victoria with Robin, even after it was his idea to give the long-distance thing a try, he pursued women relentlessly until they turned their no into a yes, and that’s only mentioning his romantic mistakes.
He held a party for three nights in a row even though Marshall had a big exam the next day, he tried to undermine Barney and Robin’s wedding because he was ‘in love’ with her, amongst many other mistakes. But, we do have to cut him some slack, because we do know he didn’t mean to be an idiot and only wanted to find the one.
