11 Greatest How I Met Your Mother Quotes About Love
thoughtcatalog.com

How I Met Your Mother had a nine season-long run during its time on television. It was a sitcom joining Ted Mosby on his journey to finding the love of his life, Throughout the show's run, audiences grew to both love and hate the ensemble cast of Ted and his eccentric group of friends. The show made us laugh, cry, and look at yellow umbrellas as a sign of hope and blue french horns as a sign of true love. Whether we liked the series finale or absolutely despised it, we can all agree that it had some of the best love quotes of any sitcom of its time.

1. "We struggle so hard to hold on to these things that we know are gonna disappear eventually. And that’s really noble." --Lily Aldrin

2. "There are two big days in any love story: the day you meet the girl of your dreams and the day you marry her."--Ted Mosby

3. "You can’t just skip ahead to where you think your life should be." --Lily Aldrin

4. "Whether a gesture’s charming or alarming, depends on how it’s received."--Ted Mosby

5. “If you’re not scared, you’re not taking a chance. And if you’re not taking a chance, then what the hell are you doing?” --Ted Mosby

6. "“Shouldn’t we hold out for the person who doesn’t just tolerate our little quirks, but actually kind of likes them?”--Ted Mosby

7. “You keep giving up on people, you’re going to miss out on something great.” --Robin Sherbatsky

8. “Sometimes things have to fall apart to make way for better things.”--Ted Mosby

9. "But love doesn't make sense. You can't logic your way into or out of it. Love is totally nonsensical. But we have to keep doing it, or else we're lost and love is dead and humanity should just pack it in. Because love is the best thing we do."--Ted Mosby

10. "Victoria is wunderbar, but she is not my "Lebenslanger Schicksalsschatz." She's my "Beinahe-Leidenschaftsgegenstand"... it means the thing that is almost the thing that you want, but it's not quite. That is Victoria to me. "Lebenslanger Schicksalsschatz" is not something that develops over time. It is something that happens instantaneously. It courses through you like the water of a river after a storm, filling you and emptying you all at once. You feel it throughout your body, in your hands, in your heart, in your stomach, in your skin... have you ever felt this way about someone? If you have to think about it, you have not felt it. Everyone does eventually. You just never know when or where." -- Klaus

11. ""Here's the secret kids. None of us can vow to be perfect. In the end all we can do is promise to love each other with everything we've got. Because love is the best thing we do."--Ted Mosby

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
