Robin dated a lot and some of those relationships were significantly better than others.

Robin Charles Sherbatsky Jr has the best developed backstory of all the supporting cast on How I Met Your Mother. Robin is not the girliest of girls. She enjoys cigars, scotch, and hockey. She also happens to be a gun nut. Sorry, gun enthusiast. These are all traditionally masculine domains but her father did raise her as a boy so we know where to point our fingers.

How I Met Your Mother is apparently Ted narrating to his kids the story of how he met their mother, but the titular mother barely makes an appearance in the story, and even then only at the very end. Robin, on the other hand, is in every single episode of the show

The story starts conveniently on the day Ted met Robin, but he blows the first date by going too big way too soon and telling her he loves her. She ends up cycling through a number of lovers. Thanks to her phobia for commitment and kids, most of these relationships go nowhere. Here is a definitive ranking of those lovers, from the worst to the best:

12. George

George wins the trophy of Robin’s worst boyfriend hands down. He is the father of one of the kids in Lilly’s kindergarten class and she is the one who sets Robin up with him.

Robin plans to break up with him because she felt things were getting a little more serious than she liked with his son, Doug. It turns out George has a second girlfriend. Doug prefers his new mommy to Robin and she ends up being dumped by a six-year-old.
