When she invited the gang over for Thanksgiving, she later freaked out, started yelling at them and kicked them all out.
She may not have been shown being physically violent in the show, but there were definitely some worrying indications of a bad temper. Zoey is, no doubt about it, a liar. She lies about being upset at the museum party to trick him into saying something incriminating, then lies about deleting the recording.
She doesn't directly lie about being married, but she definitely omits it, for a while, as well as her finances and circumstances. She lies about why she wants to save the Arcadian. She plays dirty, uses underhanded tactics, and behaves spitefully in trying to get her own way.
Even if she and Ted got together and got over the Arcadian issue, he would never be able to fully trust someone who was always being dishonest. While it's easy to sympathize with Zoey wanting to save the Arcadian when it means so much to her, she has absolutely zero respect for Ted's work, and is willing to really damage his career over this issue.
She doesn't just protest, either. She gets involved in his university class, damages his standing as a professor, and convinces his students to not come to class, risking their own grades.
Not a good sign for the future. The issues are far from all on Zoey's side, too. Ted also tells his fair share of lies, right from the start when he learns that Zoey wants to save the Arcadian when he wants to tear it down.
He also refuses to compromise for her, even after learning why the building is so important to her. At one point, he created a design to incorporate the original and the new buildings, but then decided not to go with it, even though it would have worked, been a better move to stop protests, and potentially saved the relationship.
This isn't limited to Ted and Zoey, of course - most of the characters in How I Met Your Mother hurl insults when they argue, because it makes for a funnier scene.
However, it's not healthy for people in a relationship to actually use the kind of language that these two do when they are angry at each other. Disagreeing is one thing. Name calling is completely different. Of course, the reason that they were always insulting each other is that they were fighting from the start - but it wasn't just about the Arcadian.
It was about lies told, it was about Zoey 'playing activist' while being hugely wealthy herself which begs the question of why she didn't just buy the Arcadian in the first place, but that's unrelated , it was about how they interacted, it was absolutely everything.
Right from the start, they were always at each other's throats, and even in the relationship, they argued all the time. While Ted is far from perfect as every fan of the series knows , Zoey is, in many ways, much worse. She's dishonest, but also sulky, petty, spiteful, and throws tantrums when she doesn't get her way. The two end up dancing. Natural History. On the night before Thanksgiving, the gang minus Ted spot her in MacLaren's Pub , and they recognize her as Ted's enemy.
However, she spends time with them, and by the end of the night they all grow to like her. She invites them all to spend Thanksgiving with her, and while the rest of the gang enjoy her company, she and Ted continue to argue and insult one another.
Eventually, she kicks them all out of her apartment once Ted compares her to Cinderella's evil step-mother. However, when Ted realizes that she is an actual step-mother, and that her step-daughter hates her, Ted comes back and apologizes about his earlier remark.
The two finally become friends, and they all share Thanksgiving together. Due to their recent friendship and similar interests, she and Ted start spending a lot more time together. When they spend time alone at an art gallery, her husband calls. Zoey lies and tells him she's out with friends, instead of with Ted. When Ted asks her about it, she explains that her husband tends to get jealous when he's away.
To try and make things better, Ted decides to spend time with Zoey and The Captain together on their boat, but at the last minute Zoey gets sick and cancels. Although it's just the two of them, Ted and The Captain become good friends. Zoey later admits that she faked being sick, in the hopes that Ted and The Captain would become friends.
Ted mentions his concern that the two of them spending time together doesn't cross any lines, and that if either of them develops feelings for the other, they should stop hanging out.
Zoey agrees, and they both deny that they have feelings for one another. However, it's hinted that this will not always be the case, as the Mermaid Clock begins to count down the hypothetical countdown to the moment when you realize you want to sleep with someone. The Mermaid Theory. Soon after Marshall 's father dies, Ted begins to realize his feelings for Zoey. He tells her they cannot be friends anymore, so as not to complicate her relationship with The Captain.
She asks him why they can't be friends, and he replies that Lily hated her. Honey calls Marshall to get in contact with Barney, and is tricked into revealing Zoey's secret: Zoey and George were getting a divorce and Zoey was in love with Ted. Marshall calls both Ted and Zoey, telling both of them how they felt about each other, and they get together. Oh Honey. Ted had always remained cautious around Zoey because she was married. After learning about the divorce and her mutual feelings for him, it seemed safe to make a move.
He told people the story about how she had fought with The Captain and then came to Ted after leaving him. However, he learned from The Captain who didn't yet know it was Ted who Zoey was now seeing that she had in fact left him for another man.
After confronting Zoey, he learned this was true. Despite his attempts to be respectful and keep his distance, he was still the "bad guy".
Garbage Island. While they're dating, Ted finds that his relationship with Zoey becomes increasingly strained because they constantly argue about everything.

When Ted realizes that he cannot have both Zoey and his dream of building a skyscraper, he chooses his dream over Zoey, who breaks up with him for refusing to save the Arcadian. Several months later, Ted runs into her. She tells Ted that she is still unemployed and had to get a couple of roommates who sell drugs. She tries to convince Ted that they should get back together.
