18 TV Friends Who Dated the Same Person

On How I Met Your Mother, friends Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) and Ted (Josh Radnor) both fall for their mutual pal Robin (Cobie Smulders); she and Ted date briefly in the beginning of the series before deciding that they're better off as friends, and she begins dating womanizer Barney in season four.

Robin and Barney end up getting married (though it doesn't last), and Robin ends up with Ted after his own wife passes away.
