I must say I am quite, quite glad that I never got completely hooked on Barney/Robin. I've read a few fics, and read the comm for news and such, but I'm not obsessive at all. (Note there are vague spoilers -- and some profanity -- under the cut.)

I will still watch -- unless the show becomes completely unwatchable -- but I'm done hyping it, looking forward to it, etc. I've been mildly disappointed for awhile now, this was just a capper. And I'm not one who watched the show for B/R, so it's not about them breaking up. It's about how badly they wrote them in a relationship, how badly they wrote the relationship, how badly they've been writing Lily, how boring the overall season has been.
ETA: I'm sorry, didn't realize I wrote that much!
Never apologize for writing a lot. Look at my posts, I'm a fan of that!

As it became clear that they were doing a poor job with Barney/Robin, and as the break-up happened, I realized they didn't see this. With this interview, I realized that Barney/Robin was a gimick to them, and nothing more. I had faith in the show. I no longer do. Nothing's drawing me toward it right now. I may need to be done.

one of the things that got me immediately hooked on himym was how much planning the writers/creaters obviously put into the stories and the future of everything. so I had faith that even though things were awkward, they would work it out.
and then this? what? it's really disappointing the way he just waved it off like that. why bother spending all of last season building up to it?
psh. I'm not done with the show or anything, but I'm really disappointed. and oddly enough it's not because my 'ship sunk, but how it sunk.
