Friends isn’t just some regular run-of-the-mill TV Sitcom. It’s our go to remedy whenever we feel low, an integral part of our 90’s experience and, simply put, our happy place. But while Friends is mostly known for generating those much needed laughs, it has actually taught us a lot of important lessons as well. Don’t believe me? Here 10 life lessons Friends taught us –

1. Not sharing food is okay

Joey doesn’t share food!

As Joey would say, ‘Joey does not share food’, and if that’s not a valid life lesson, I don’t know what is.

2. Your soul mate can be hidden in your best friend

Has there ever been a better match than Chandler and Monica? Your soul mate might just be your bff!

3. Being weird is okay

Hello Mr. Biceps

Hello Mr. Biceps

Considering how happy Phoebe always is, maybe her philosophy on life is one to live by.

4. Always be aware

Just one word, ‘Unagi’!

5. Dance like it’s the end of the world

How does it matter who all are watching? Dance like there’s no tomorrow.

6. NEVER try to seduce anyone with a knife

As both Chandler and Monica learned the hard way, knives and seduction don’t go hand in hand.

7. Parents can be difficult

Know what Chandler’s dad, Monica’s mom and Phoebe’s mom have in common? They weren’t exactly the easiest people!

8. Never say the wrong name at your wedding

Never say the wrong name at your wedding. Trust me, things could not get any more complicated.

9. True love always prevails

Rachel – “I got off the plane”

Still melts our hearts. Every time!!!

10. Friends are family

If you didn’t believe it before, spending 10 years with these six crazy and lovable friends would certainly make you think otherwise.
