You know what? I’m done being single. I’m not good at it. Look, obviously you can’t tell a woman you just met that you love her. I’ll tell you something though. Say if a woman -- not you -- just some hypothetical woman, were to bear with me through all this, I think I’d make a damn good husband, cause that’s the stuff I’d be good at, stuff like making her laugh, being a good father, and walking her 5 hypothetical dogs and being a good kisser…
Ted Mosby [How I Met Your Mother; Season 1, Episode 1]

I bet you're wondering why I began this post off with that huge quote from Ted Mosby. Well, I just rewatched that episode of How I Met Your Mother, and it made me realize I am the female embodiment of Ted Mosby. I have been known to drop the "L-bomb" within hours or a mere couple days of meeting a guy, and, to be honest, if you take the statement above and make it into the female version, I think you'll notice it fits me, Kristin (except for the 5 dogs...make it 5 cats! XD).
Is "being a Ted" a bad thing? In my opinion, not really. I mean, sometimes it gets me hurt but honestly I enjoy it; it means I have a big heart and tend to care deeply for people. You know that feeling where you just click with another person? I get that a lot...not because I date a lot of guys, but because with each guy I date I take one or two traits I like about them and try to find someone new with those traits plus many more that I really like :) Being a Ted is a lot of fun sometimes, but not everyone can be :P Some people have to be Barney or Marshall.
Seriously, How I Met Your Mother is a show about love in this generation. You have the couple (Marshall and Lilly), the gigolo (Barney), the strong independent female (Robin), and that one guy who's always unlucky-in-love (Ted). We all know people just like each of them, may they be friends or family members, and we love them for who they are. Yes, my Ted-like qualities do annoy my friends on occasion but they forgive me after a while :)

So, readers, do you have a television series you've connected with on a level that I have connected to How I Met Your Mother on?
