To me, it really felt like they were going that direction in season 2 and I was loving it. It was like it was pulling the carpet out from season 1 that everyone is happy and positivity can win as you saw it all being held up by a house of cards and a tiny little hair. I think Ted needs too be brought down into some normalcy by the things that are crumbling around him. How could you divorce Ted? How could you marry him? He would be absolutely unbearable to be around all the time.
That said, he pours his heart out to his ex and she's just like..."Okay goodnight". F you. Like, I can imagine it'd be a tough scene to do as she's probably not actually watching the scene and just staring at a computer camera and saying the lines. But, someone says all that stuff to you and you have no reaction, to me, was just super weird. And then she smiles after like "maybe I like Ted" or something? This lady is messed up. And yeah, the dating the counsellor thing is insane as well.

I actually really like how they wrote that. To me the character was proud of him for actually feeling and voicing his emotions.
