True. Jennifer and David likely put themselves not above the group ... or the show for that matter. Would have still been nice if Friends didn't end up taunting them so much about it.

The sad thing is that Ross was so afraid to lose Rachel, that he let his jealousy turn him irrational and basically ended up sabotaging their relationship. Shows the importance of working on yourself and controlling your self-destructive habits.

[@GN-Aaron]

​@Igi Ross is really narcissistic and manipulative in the last scene. he's blaming her for the situation without taking accountability for cheating (either his choice or he was taken advantage of, but never Rachel's fault). If he didn't pretend nothing happened and instead sat down to have a talk with Rachel before deciding to swipe everything under the rug, and told her he slept with another woman, that he was hurt about Mark, and that he was drink and irrational, maybe it would've been better. And in any case, he should've respected her decision. Instead, he's making himself look like a victim of circumstances, always someone else's fault, never his own. Rachel might have a lot of faults, but she has every right to feel broken and manipulated.

This is why the story happened. Rachel was coming off living with her father and Barry who literally thought the same way. They were not offered the same jobs pay was not equal pay between men and women. This is another reason why people of that generation might blame ross because he was literally acting like that. 😊I understand that and I’m sure not all men were not like that but the majority were!

We can all agree how Rachel got destructive of Ross' relationships with Bonnie, Emily, etc. But the mess of their relationship wouldn't have happened if Ross just respected her from the start. As a girlfriend, she was patient and devoted to him. She was simply trying to build a career, which takes dedication and a little sacrifice of her social life. Look what could've happened if Ross gave her space? She was inviting friends to shows, going to galas that he could've gone with. Ross was worried he'd lose her to Mark, but never knew that even after she moved on to guys like Joshua, Ross was still her priority.

Regardless of the cheating issue, I think Ross did something much more terrible than that. He was so jealous and insecure of Mark to the point where he did things that is so inappropriate and made Rachel so embarrassed on her workplace. Being cheated on hurts like hell but what’s even worse was having a boyfriend who doesn’t trust you and gets insecure to a person who helps you succeed on your career instead of being supportive. If Rachel forgave Ross that time, she probably won’t have the chance to grow into a woman she wants to be.

[@SilverWolf442]

He was with Carol for 7 years and almost slept with Phoebe on a pool table the night she ended their marriage. Some people have different coping mechanisms to try to erase grief & depression. Rachel went to the airport to get with Ross but he got off the plane with Julie, then she went & slept with Palo that same night. She did that pretty fast when she was gonna confess to loving another man just a few hours prior. Joey & Chandler told Ross to get a drink, he did just that & Chloe was throwing herself at him and he was brushing her off but relented & agreed to 1 dance to make her go away. Plus he'd called Rachel's apartment only to find out she had Mark over soon after & she got caught lying about it. We know that she's innocent but Ross isn't a mind-reader & Rachel wasn't showing trustworthy behavior to him. Same with Ross x Emily. He says Rachel's name in their vows, then she arrives at the airport to see him going on *their* honeymoon flight with the same women whose name he said. Ross was innocent but he stupidly put himself in a compromising position for his partner to get the wrong idea.

The thing about whether they were on a break or not she clearly says it right there, it was a break, they both agree that it was a break and I think it's completely unnecessary for people to keep fighting about it because they say it right there in the video. The actual problem is that even after she finds out he slept with another woman, he for some reason thinks she doesn't have a right to be upset, he expects for everything to go back to normal. He was always a very toxic person in the show, from not respecting her career, not being happy that she is making a name for herself and inviting him to places shes happy in like the galas but at the same time expecting her to go to him to museum events with him. Always being jealous and thinking that the only reason someone from her work helps her through a tough situations just so that they have sex with her, thinking being a nanny is a "strange" profession for a man when it's actually a very respectable profession and him indicating that during that episode (i don't remember which one) is very sexist of him. Even at 1:58 where he says he though he should have told her but then blames. Joey and Chandler for keeping him from telling her just goes to say the type of guy he is, he blames his friends for having him keep it a secret, he should have just told her instead of putting the blame on someone else, especially her in 2:25 when he gets defensive because she doesn't say anything to him, she is just simply trying to process the situation in a clam manner and he just goes and gets mad.

Ross holding rachel at the end makes me cry every time

[@davinadel8450]

Ross can’t take no accountability it’s sad . Poor Rachel had the tables flipped on her .

[@luileadnynavas3222]

Literally living this currently….with the man I was in love with for 9 years….

[@RodriguezAJN]

I always hated the laughing in this scene. What Rachel was feeling was devastating, nothing funny 😔

[@rebecca5334]

Here I am on the verge of crying while the people are laughing

[@MMAGUY13]

I watch this before I broke up and after I broke up with the woman I love. Ross really showed very well how broken you are when you lose someone the pain was worse thing I ever or will ever feel.

1:42 i laugh so hard everytime.

"I didn't think there was a relationship to jeopardize. I thought we were broken up" "That, for all I knew, could last forever. That, to me, is a breakup" "I thought our relationship was dead". Such lame, disgusting excuses. Even if Ross really thought their relationship was over, that makes him an extremely insensitive person and their relationship very lame: not even 24 hours passed since Rachel suggested they should take a break, and already he slept with another woman! If he really cared for Rachel, he'd not jump to other woman's bed so quickly. Ross is also a hypocrite: if Rachel slept with Mark or any other man during their breakup, would he put up with that, since he believed their relationship was over?! No way. He made it clear when Rachel asked him that (during the rest of scene). Yet he demands that Rachel will forgive him! The bottom line: Ross is a total jerk.

I haven’t been cheated on but watching this hurt so badly 😢

[@pangeaforever]

we agree that this is one of the most impactful moments in tv, right?

[@AIG1026]

Those are good as friends worried about their friends relationship

[@loralaig]

I never knew I’d totally truly understand Rach in this scene

[@jainaakriti21]

If this doesn't make you cry, I don't know what will...........

[@INOBT100]

That was the most touching breakup scene I've ever seen

[@XieLian-lv1xi]

Ross is the worst, the audacity to betray her and act as if he loves her, he's a... 🤡

[@eves0195]

This scene makes me mad at him Forsure

[@meganparnell4989]

This is seriously amazing acting

[@ashleyrodriguez1394]

Not when this is literally happening to me right now, my fiance did the same and we broke up, this shit hits hard

[@subhojeet_001]

Yo random 14 year old kid. Go study

[@safiya9064]

[@Pure_World]

[@aaronleperspicace1704]
