Nobody is saying you can't love more than one person. However, the basic premise of HIMYM was how Ted's journey led to him meeting his one true soulmate. There was a constant theme throughout the show of everything building to that moment....and then it was just glossed over.
The negative reaction to the ending isn't a reaction to someone loving more than two people. Its a reaction to watching the culmination of Ted's 9 year journey only to see it dismissed so quickly so the ending with Robin could be realized. So instead of the moment of how Ted met Tracy being the focal point of the show, (Which is promised in its own very title) it is instead Ted returning to Robin. Throw in not even talking about Tracy's death, the complete waste of time of Barney & Robin's wedding, Ted & Tracy living in sin, the absolute garbage pacing of the finale...and you have what's fueling this reaction.

Except real life doesn't work that way. This show demonstrated that perfectly.
I think the worst part about the finale is that it totally fricked up Barney's character.
