I read this in a review on HIMYM’s “Drunk Train” Episode:

“We’ve been heading for this love triangle all season, and I know it won’t be what some people are looking for from this show. But I think it’s exactly right. This isn’t the story of how Ted met the kids’ mother; it never was. It’s the story of how he said goodbye to all the other potentials, all the roads not taken, and we all know that the biggest hurdle on that journey, for all of us, is the friend who makes it possible to stop looking. ”
