It’s been 10 years since the beloved sitcom aired its final episode. And I still love it as much as I did a decade ago.

Five little words will cause any die-hard Friends fan to tear up: "I got off the plane." When Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) appeared in Ross' (David Schwimmer) doorway after boarding a plane to Paris, even though he had confessed his love to her at the gate and begged her to stay, Friends fans exhaled. A love story 10 years in the making (really more, if we count the prom video) finally had its happy ending.
And the culmination was truly fitting for the two characters. Rachel could have walked out of Newark Airport hand-in-hand with Ross, headed into a blissful metaphorical sunset. But that wouldn't have been appropriate for the Ross-and-Rachel Friends fans had come to know and love. It would have been too simple. And nothing about Ross and Rachel was ever simple. From initially confessing their feelings, to their first kiss (and their first night together), to break-ups and breaks, there was always something standing in the way of their relationship.
