She left him at the altar – what could be worse?

In 2005, a young architect and just a romantic man named Ted Mosby began to search for the mother of his children. There was no doubt that one day he would find her: in 2030, across from the grown-up Mosby, his two children, Penny and Luke, sat on the sofa and prepared to listen to the story of how their parents met.

Throughout the seasons, the writers left clues, and the viewers pieced together the image of the mother like pieces of a puzzle: a guitar, a yellow umbrella, robots.

Ted, TV's main romantic, has been searching for the perfect life partner for a long time. Along the way, the New Yorker has met many women, each of whom has left her mark on his heart.

HIMYM Fans Are Still Not Over Stella's Betrayal

After getting a butterfly tattoo on his lower back, Ted had to endure the ridicule of his best friends for a long time and then undergo an expensive and very painful laser removal. The only good thing about this story was the doctor who removed the tattoo. Stella became one of the most important women in Ted's life, but later broke his heart. And the fans still hate her for it.

“I actually skip over all her episodes when rewatching because of this. I just hate her knowing what she will do to Ted,” Reddit user holdmyTRex wrote.

Ted & Stella's Story Was Moving Too Fast from The Very Start

The story of Ted and Stella seemed like a perfect love story at first, ending with the traditional "and they lived happily ever after." But as you watch the end of the third season and the beginning of the fourth, you can't help but feel that events are moving too fast.

Will the show end at the beginning of the fourth season? Is that Mom? No, of course not, you tell yourself, and you start to suspect something is wrong as soon as Ted proposes to Stella.

And something bad does happen. Stella leaves Ted at the altar, leaving him with a giant hole in his chest. She tricked fan favorite Mosby and ran off with her ex. And we will never forgive her for that.
