Derek was a multi-millionaire and was Robin's boyfriend from around the start of December 2005 to the middle of January 2006.
During The Pineapple Incident, Derek was taking Robin to a charity dinner (1500 Dollar a plate) for Third-World Hunger. Barney thought that this only was to get Robin in bed, and "not for little Mu Tu to get his malaria pills." The date apparently went well, since they continued dating. The two were also planning to spend New Year's Eve together, but Derek got stuck in Connecticut with work, however he cut his meeting and came back to see Robin at midnight. They didn't share a kiss though, because of Robin's promise to Ted.
They broke up a while later because, according to Robin, they never really clicked (although it could have been because Robin had feelings for Ted).
