Jason Segel has had his fair share of high-profile relationships and romance rumors. The actor was in a well-known relationship with his former Freaks and Geeks costar Linda Cardellini in the early 2000s, and also dated Oscar nominee Michelle Williams from 2012 to 2013. Additionally, Segel has been linked to Drew Barrymore and Lindsay Lohan, although these relationships were never officially confirmed.
Not all of Segel’s romantic interests have been in the entertainment industry. During a January 2023 interview on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, the actor shared that he almost pursued a woman who worked at a local ice cream shop after going through a breakup right before the pandemic. (He and Alexis Mixter ended their eight-year relationship in April 2021.)
Segel recalled that the woman at the ice cream shop said nice things to him about How I Met Your Mother and expressed her love for his movies. She even mentioned how his work had helped her during a tough time. Before handing him his ice cream, she shared a heartfelt message, telling Segel, “Never forget the joy you bring to the world.”
Their meet-cute, however, was later ruined after Segel discovered her joyful message was actually the ice cream shop’s slogan.

Linda Cardellini
Segel and Cardellini started dating after playing Nick Andopolis and Lindsay Weir on Freaks and Geeks, which ended after one season in 2000. One year after their breakup in 2007, Segel wrote and starred in the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The film follows his character as he tries to win back an ex who dumped him.
Many speculated that the movie was inspired by his relationship with Cardellini, but Segel neither confirmed nor denied the rumors in an interview with The Los Angeles Times. In April 2008, he said, “I can’t control what people think. I was still very much a child [then], and this was more an amalgamation of a lot of different relationships and breakups I’ve had. People are bound to talk, but she was a great girlfriend.”
