Realistic or not?

So many things happened during 10 years of them hanging out together and spending time together; some of them dated, broke up and then became even closer afterwards. Do you find this possible in real life?

Honestly, I think it was realistic. I don't have any experience in that area, being only 14 and not living in NY. But I think it's certainly possible.

i honestly found it very realistic! it's one of those shows that doesn't lie to you, that kept things real. although some things WERE crazy that would never happen in real life! haha! but overall I think it was!

For sure. Actually, one of the things that makes the show so great is the fact you can relate to your own life. It kinda teaches me on how to act or what to expect in certain situations of my life.

Absolutely. Actually, I can't think of any other show so life-like as Friends was. Maybe Gilmore Girls, which was also very realistic. I mean, most things that happen on Friends could happen to any of us people! And because of it, I realized that regular things like our jobs, homes, family and relationships can be great things and even the problems can be faced in a funny way. We are sad many times, sure, but you can live through life and survive it!

Maybe Phoebe's past was one of the most unrealistic things about the show, do you guys agree?
