All Barney acted like he never wants a family or be a bachelor the rest of this life but secretly he wanted a family and kids more than Ted...I really wanted Nora to be the mother of Ellie. They were perfect for each other
Yeah Norah was great and so was Robin and technically Quinn too. It was a shame the way it ended with all three of them. To me Norah had the strongest relationship but then Robin and him breaking up after that season of them marrying was messed up.
The reason barney became a corporate bro was to get back at his boss for stealing Shannon from him but everything else was coping with the trauma of a broken home and a broken heart
13 yo you didn't pay attention :) Previous episode had his own mom talking about him and having kids. He didn't say he didn't want kids. He said Robin couldn't and he could live with it. To be fair, I think Ted would've lived with it as well.

@@paolacamano6078 lmao yeah I was gonna say fatherhood is a catalyst and motivator but it doesnt motivate everyone cant fix a child thats set on staying one
The key that every dissenting comment is missing is that the statement is "when you become a father*", not "when you have a baby." There's a difference, unfortunately. *parent in general.
My husband had tears of joy in his eyes when he held our son for the first time. He was so gentle and did skin to skin. The look my husband was giving our son, pure unconditional love, made me cry tears of joy just watching it
It's an incredible feeling. My baby is graduating from high school this month. She went for a job interview for her first full-time job after high School. She was dressed up in a professional outfit and all I saw was this beautiful woman before me where my little girl had been. That hit me as hard as the day she was born.
I love that, he's scared of losing the way he is, he's even convinced it's not a birth yet, but as soon as he sees the baby he changed his mind because he fell in love, because he knew that's his child, his flesh and blood, when a man becomes a father they're scared, but deep down they will love their children
That's father's love at the first sight... Unlike the mom, who feels the baby growing inside her, you only feel that experience when you get to pick him up for the first time. There and only then, you truly become a parent
I saw a kind of twist to that. My father never really liked his daughter in law but the day she was pregnant, he started to look at her like she was the most precious thing in the world, and she is now like his own daughter
I liked the show but hated the ending. Ted spent the entire show telling his kids about how their mother was his soulmate and he only ever fell in love with her just to get with Robin again. I love Robin, but their relationship didn't work out several times, why would it work now?

Pretty much what it's like having your first child. Regardless of what your initial reaction is, when you hold your baby for the first time, it changes you.
I had a son, shed a few tears.. had a daughter, and cried so hard on the inside that it shed a dozen or so tears on the outside.. had a second daughter and became the softest, most protective, Mike Tysonist mf ever! Would literally take a bullet for any one of them 💞
It’s not a TV show, it is the reality of the most of men (Not what he did when he act when he heard the news) when they hold their first child in his arms. This moment we do feel that we will fight the world for him/her. I couldn’t hold my tears when I hold my son first time. I was yelling at the nurse (Be gentle please) when she gave him his first shower. We were so scared when we carried him (My wife and I) we were so gentle with him and slowly moving lol He is everything we have and I live and die for him. (And my wife the love of my life/my world.)
I had the same reaction when my daughters were born. My life had been a real shitshow until I met my wife. She saved me and made me want to be a better man. But my daughters being born was on a whole different level. I just became another person and I'm so thankful that happened ❤
This reminds me of when I got my daughter.... I never thought I could love anybody like that.... But she is the most precious thing given now which is grown up.... She is my world
I started crying when Barney said that stuff to his new daughter. I wish I had a dad like that, but I got stuck with a dirt bag who was never around since i was a year old
I remember this day crystal clear. Haven't seen my daughter for a few years now. My spouse (soon to be ex) has used parental alienation to separate me and prevent contact. Spouse has filled the child's mine with lies and I have no way of telling my story. Life can take a U turn without any warning.
This reminded me of my brother when my nephew was born 4 months ago...The fatherly love in his eyes was something I cannot explain...And as a first time Aunt,I was so excited to meet him and the moment I saw him I knew that I would love him till my last breath...
I had that same feeling to a lesser degree when my daughter was born. Beforehand, I never could’ve imagined myself as a dad. Grandfather maybe, but not a dad. Once I held her though, I had a VERY similar reaction. I’d sacrifice everything for that kiddo after I held her for the first time. Never thought I’d enjoy being a dad as much as I have.
When my dad looked at me for the first time and suddenly felt intimidated by me because I was staring at him and really studying his face. I remember I would always do that as a kid, I just loved to study faces, every wrinkle, every feature, everything, and this helped me later on when I sketch potraits. So every picture of me as a baby was me being very serious with a piercing stare. My dad told me I looked at him so seriously as if I was asking, "Are YOU my father?" Whenever he tells this story, I always laugh because I was probably just studying his face out of curiosity while he had a whole mental crisis about his role. My older brother was so much more playful and a very naughty kid so I guess when I came they expected me to be less serious and quiet. Now my brother is the more serious one while I laugh very easily. The roles have reversed now.
I don't think my real dad had that feeling but from the time I was 4, my step dad helped me grow and gave me a life I could have otherwise never hoped for. I loved him more than my real dad or mom. He was my dad in nearly every sense of the word except blood and even then, he and I accidentally mixed blood when I was about 10. His finger had been bleeding but I cut myself cooking and had a huge gash on my fingers and wrist. With his still bleeding, he grabbed my hand to keep it closed and helped me. From that day, he was my blood dad. I regret more than anything not ever having him adopt me but where I live it's unrealistically expensive. He was my best friend and was often who I would turn to growing up. I even lived with him in my teens up until I moved out (he and my mom were still married, just lived across the road from each other to avoid fighting. They called it "the long hallway"
If only my father had felt the same about me... i once was precious... then the stepmother came along... i was nothing anymore.... she was the reason i left 2 weeks after i turned 17... and never went back... we still don't have much of a relationship and that was almost 2 decades ago....😢
In about 8 weeks I’ll be having my third child and second daughter. It doesn’t matter how manny you have it still frightens/excites me to the core. I feel so happy and at the same time more stressed than ever. The opportunity to see another life grow is the best thing that can happen all while the emotions you are feeling may not be the best. The fear of not being a good father, not being able to support her or even the chance that I may not get to see her/them become the best person they can be. This is fatherhood and I wouldn’t give it up for anything
Man so many good fathers in the comment section. I literally felt nothing when my son was born. But now that he's three he's my everything. Guess a delayed reaction.
Is it weird or I just think it's weird, that we never see Barney get old. Like we've seen him cosplay his old self, but not him as an actual middle aged man, like Ted or Robin or Lily & Marshel. We never even see his daughter as a teen.
Hes right. His life is over. Their life is just beginning. Little girls are the most amazing thing too. I love my little boy, but the way my little girl looks at me...nothing like it.
This needs to be reshared and reshared and so on. Constant reminders that a baby will and should change your life, but contrary to what you usually hear, it's for the better.

FYI why he looks very emotional for the baby because that baby is really his daughter in real life.

I just watched Gone Girl for the first time last night and the amount of times I yelled BARNEY!!! at the screen was insane.
I literally had the exact same moment as Barney did.
I like how the nurse was very chill even after she saw him celebrating that he was not the father
The switch up is crazy 😂
Barney made me Cry 🥲
Being the father he never had ❤
This was the point where Barney officially "died" and a decent human being was born 😅😅
This scene melts my heart completely
Like Ryan Reynolds once said “the moment I saw her, I knew then and there that if we are ever under attack, I will use my wife as a human shield”
The moment he smiled ❤
Chill bumps everywhere…
This is LEGEND, WAIT FOR IT… DAIRY
