在經(jīng)過七季的各種糾結(jié)，Barney和Robin終于將可能在第八季眾望所歸地修成正果，在這一季的第六集，Barney為了Robin的幸福希望她和Nick分手，并在這個時候借著玩笑的口吻，戲假情真，對Robin說出了真愛告白。
Because Robin and I are in love. I love her, Nick. I love everything about her. And I'm not a guy who says that lightly. I'm a guy who has faked love his entire life. I thought love was just something idiots thought they felt, but this woman has a hold on my heart that I could not break if I wanted to, and there have been times that I wanted to. It has been overwhelming and humbling and even painful at times. But I could not stop loving her any more than I could stop breathing. I am hopelessly, irretrievably in love with her. More than she knows.
因為Robin和我彼此相愛。我愛她。我愛她的一切。你要知道我并不是一個能隨意說出這種話來的人。我是那種不相信什么“真愛”的人。我曾經(jīng)以為真愛只不過是一種SB們覺得他們能感受到的一種東西，但是這個女人抓住了我的心，我想走都走不了。曾經(jīng)有那么幾次我想過要走，但我根本無法控制自己，在這種強大的力量面前感到自己無比卑微，有時甚至非常心痛。但是我無法不愛她，就像我無法不呼吸一樣。我是如此不可救藥而又無法挽回地愛著她。而她可能對此一無所知。
