Quote from Future Ted in Big Days
Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, nothing in this life quite compares to the sweet, terrifying exhilaration of making your move. When you just put it all on the line and go for it. And that night, by golly, Cindy went for it. [Cindy kisses her girlfriend] Future Ted: So no, that girl wasn't your mother. She ended up being someone else's mother. In fact, they both did. Robin: Like I said, she's here on a date. Future Ted: [v.o.] So that was not the day I met your mother. The day I met your mother was the day of a wedding.
