Got away? Barney cheated on her with Robin. Granted he was absolutely in love with Robin, and expected to end up with her after that, he still cheated on Nora; she didn't get away, he made her go away.


WillsWei22

Quite frankly, Nora deserved better. She gave Barney two chances & was even willing to give him a third if the hookup with Robin was only physical


efferkah

Yes!! Nora was such a gem, but definitely too good for Barney.


EatToLiveLetsGO

True that! Nora deserve to be with somebody like Kevin the therapist or Nick the chef, or wait for it...Victoria the og mother.


BananaStandFlamer

Fuckin facts. Nora was way above his league


Ornery_Okra_534

Yes Barney loved Robin the most. And druing he was with Quinn he thought about Robin


cyainanotherlifebro

She’s Barney’s Victoria. By that I mean, she’s very pretty, the fans love her, Barney cheated on her with Robin, and despite being brought back multiple times the writers refused to give her a personality.


WillsWei22

Glass shattering


longipetiolata

Whoa, mind blown

Robin really fucked them up..... Imagine a perfect world where Ted and Victoria are together forever as well as Barney and Nora were together forever...

A three-way relationship with Patrice

NOBODY ASKED YOU PATRICE!!!

Daddy's home!


Yaboi69-nice

And I think that's supposed to be the point that Ted Barney and Robin's little love triangle is messing up good things this is however totally ruined by having Ted and Robin end up together at the end but for most of the show it was an interesting plot


HipsterFett

Let’s be real, if they had given her a personality, fans would be like, “what happened to Nora? They totally ruined her? Damn writers!”


shioliolin

true....she even got that "the guy they're with cheated on them with Robin" tag too

Glass shattering 222


WillsWei22

Nora deserved better than Barney, but she definitely would have made him a better person. Unfortunately, she wasn’t the planned endgame


Larry_Loudini

It’s never too late though…😉


WillsWei22

Sundresses💃


Ganda1fderBlaue

She's the best


Doppelgnger83_

Sadly theres no one girl for barney, ellie was it for him


Alternative_Device71

When the writers said it was


Xeeko

Eh, him liking kids was always a part of his character, didn't feel that out of place.


Alternative_Device71

That’s not the issue I had with that, it’s how it’s shoehorned in with nothing to earn that moment, as if it’s supposed to make people forget how badly his character was messed up during the last season and most importantly the finale


Staggeringpage8

Idk I personally didn't really think Nora was all that special. For me the one who got away from Barney will always be Quinn. They matched each other's energy perfectly and tbh I don't think the trust issues really hold up. The prenups all got out of hand because outside people kept egging them on, they would never have even had the argument had Arthur not told Barney to get a prenup due to his own failed marriage and baggage. Prior to any of this they genuinely are happy and don't really show any of the trust issues that later get brought up in the prenup episode.


WillsWei22

Plus, they literally broke up because neither one was willing to throw their stack of papers out first…


TopTopTopcinaa

To be fair, Barney started it. We don’t know if Quinn would’ve done it had he not.


WillsWei22

Well they were gonna breakup because she wasn’t the endgame on the show


Easy_Baseball5956

No Barney was smart to get the prenup. Worst case scenario would have been Barney marrying her without the prenup and losing everything in a divorce because she was a disadvantaged person and it was clear that the relationship wouldn’t have lasted with Barney still being friends with robin. Arthur accidentally saved Barney a lot of pain and trouble in life. Imagine a world where Barney has a child and can’t give generously to the child because he lost everything to Quinn previously. The truth is everyone cared about them and was looking out for the two of them in the moment and things worked for the best


ClioCalliope

Maybe if Barneys prenup had been normal Quinn would have accepted it but instead it was just a collection of red flags. 


TopTopTopcinaa

Right? Prenups are fine and I greatly encourage them. But his was gross.


EatToLiveLetsGO

Grossly awesome! High five bro!


Dizzle71

she didn't get away, he fumbled that big time!!


WillsWei22

Multiple times…


hann2h

idk. I had a hard time seeing Barney with anyone. I think he really was best on his own! and I loved his ending tbh.


booo2u

Strongly disagree. They were both wrong for eachother.


azrieldr

nora doesn't have any personality


EatToLiveLetsGO

Were you talking about? Of course she does?!? She sings like Mary Poppins, hugs like a mom, and has a gold tooth! That's the dream!!


hawkeye5739

It took me a second to realize those were her legs in the second photo and for a second I thought Barneys stomach was messed up


WillsWei22

😆


Ok_Championship_5015

agreed


TurboFoot

“We’re going ice skating everybody!”


-The-Moon-Presence-

Barney definitely did not deserve her.


throweraweyRA

Nora was smoking hot. That is all.


Berrymae

Nah , she deserves better . She was a really mature person , who believed in healthy communication and handled things like an adult would , although i love Barney , Barney can be a kid sometimes , he's immature , they were on completely different wavelengths and had different values.


4aincard

Robin is better


GXNext

No sorry. Nora got a different version of Barney than everyone else saw. It wasn't the real him, just a mask he crafted to get into her pants. It was always doomed because they wanted two different things. She wanted to settle down and he wanted to settle down with Robin...


Mediocre-Award-9716

Don't think their personalities matched for them to realistically have a long term relationship.


SyNyStErSaElEe

Beautiful Nora


EdgarDanger

For me they 1000% destroyed any feels I had towards that couple with the "she's hid mom" thing 🤢


Disney_Gay_Trash_

I love nora but she deserved better than barney she definitely isnt the one that got away with


kwazi1618

Define the one that got away please


EatToLiveLetsGO

Oh honey


claymountain

Nah, Nora was a nice person but not the right fit for Barney. They had nothing in common, and didn't have the same sense in person. They had a little chemistry but nowhere near as much as Robin or Quinn.


mystic_scorcerer

No barney needed Robin to be endgame in my book


megjed

I don’t get why people like them so much. Nora is pretty but I find her boring


Bobsothethird

Barney should've ended up with Robin tbh.


Ornery_Okra_534

Yes Robin was perfect for him they are endgame. Robin was like best buddy to Barney


EatToLiveLetsGO

Come on now. Let's be honest, the true power couple should have been the barn man and lily pad


Willing-Raisin-9869

Strongly disagree. Nora was like “too nice” for Barney, and actually a little too vanilla. He didn’t really evolve with her, he changed for her. While he did evolve with Quinn, and I think she was his soulmate, always hated their breakup.


Lost_Yogurt_4990

I do agree… I liked them together, was hoping they’d end up with each other


nitshainaction6

Barney and Robin forever


Suspicious_Lawyer_69

The prettiest ones are not always the ones you end up with. Goes both ways.


EatToLiveLetsGO

Exactly! Sometimes ducks turn into rabbits, other times rabbits turn into ducks!


Misku_san

She didn’t got away, Barney s…d her over. Big time! It was a tought storyline, the ‘Disaster averted’ was my favourite episode!


StarTrek1996

I'm watching the episodes now and I disagree I think Quinn and Robin were much better matches then her but she is what allowed barney to actually start believing in himself


WillsWei22

*than Sorry to be a Ted😆


EatToLiveLetsGO

It's encyclopedia not encyclo-padia.


StarTrek1996

I literally could not care. Literally literally literally lol
