Ranking Ted Mosby’s Girlfriends On How I Met Your Mother

With How I Met Your Mother finishing its penultimate season, the glaring question the show is built around will soon be answered. Fans have anxiously awaited the reveal of who Ted's wife is for the last 8 years as the character has dated a wide array of girls, from the awesome to the completely ridiculous.

Sure, they may not have been anything all that special about Holly, and we don’t really get to see much of her, but she was pretty, caring, and they slept together, so points right there. The only downside to her was she reminded him of Robin since her ex-fiancee Wayne had no manners. There are far worse memories that a girl could conjure up than a detour through Batman lore.

There’s no denying the fact that Carly gets a major bump on the list for the fact that she’s Barney’s sister. Well, Barney’s half-sister, but still. She was also pretty dang cute.

The jury is still out on whether Marybeth was actually flirting with Ted, or whether she was just too friendly with everyone, but come on, when are hugs a bad thing? She also was willing to leave the limo amicably when she realized that Ted was in love with Robin, a mature and classy thing to do. It’s a shame that we never got to see much more about her.
