However, while they were in London for Ross’s wedding, a drunken hookup set things in motion.
Monica and Chandler began their relationship in secret on “Friends.”
To that end, here are the things you never noticed about Monica and Chandler’s relationship.
Nevertheless, producers didn’t come up with the idea of pairing up Monica and Chandler until years later.
And looking back, fans have spotted some potential hints about their ultimate romance.
It’s pretty clear that Monica does a lot to help him mature, too.
When Monica overhears him talking about her size, she becomes determined to lose weight and get revenge.
When Chandlersees her again, he’s suddenly attracted to her.
Obviously, this is a problematic aspect of the show.
But one redeeming part of the Fat Monica storyline comes in “The One That Could Have Been.”
In that episode, we see an alternate reality in which Monica never lost weight.
Eventually, Chandler realizes his feelings for her even though she’s not skinny.
In fact, their ability to tease each other actually shows just how much they care.
We all remember when ChandlermockedMonica’s “beautiful guest room.”
However, this teasing isn’t about putting the other person down it’s about building a stronger connection.
Those quirks tend to be the things that you love the most about your partner."
Talk about a couple that is meant to be.
Talk about total couple goals!
As the producer Scott Silveri explained toVulture, this new dynamic was very intentional.
“Nobody wanted it to become the ‘Get Together and Break-Up’ show.”
Silveri also explained how they decided to get Monica and Chandler together.
No wonder it felt so real and so refreshing.
However, few people know just how explosive the storyline was at the time.
Apparently, the team was worried that fans would be upset at the pairing.
In other words, the couple was a surprising hit with the fans.
It turns out, this old saying is actually proved to be true.
In fact, it all felt completely natural.
Being that rare couple that can make it work is proof of a genuine connection."
As she famouslysaidthrough her tears, “There’s a reason girls don’t do this.”
In fact, they still don’t get down on one knee all that often.
In 2021, women proposing has become a little more popular.
AsBridesreported, attitudes are changing and some women are taking the plunge and proposing.
However, there’s still a long way to go before it’s completely normalized.
After all, Chandler had a history of struggling with commitment before he got together with Monica.
However, this couple clearly knew that sticking with it would be worth it in the end.
And they certainly put the work in when it came to making the relationship work.
A great example is Monica and Chandler’s first fight.
Chandler, who has never fought for a relationship,assumesthat their fight means that they will break up.
Of course, the relationship also helps Monica to learn to be in a long term relationship, too.
However, the entire plot line may have been somewhat mishandled.
After all, adoption isn’t actually all that easy.
Usually, it takes between two to seven years, as noted by theAdoption connection.
Naturally, this move would mean a big change for the couple.
Of course, Joey would still be a frequent house guest.
Even though Monica and Chandler’s family life was probably a happy one, things would change.
It’s kind of sad, but their lifestyle as seen on “Friends” had to end sometime.
