Love like a lobster, get off the plane, and always be there for your friends.
Every relationship has its ups and downs.
The Ross and Rachel saga is an emotional rollercoaster to say the least. It's pretty unlikely for any relationship to be plain sailing the whole way through, and no better example comes to mind than their rocky on-and-off-again relationship. The fact is, their completely undeniable love for each other didn't magically make things easy.
Relationships are about two people doing one thing, and even when you love someone, disagreements, different approaches, and hurt feelings happen. It's just about whether or not you're willing and able to work through those challenges.

A healthy relationship is all about giving and receiving in equal measure.
Love is about generosity and thoughtfulness, as Chandler soon realised after a vital ~intimacy~ lesson from Monica and Rachel. Paying attention to your partner's needs is vital in every aspect of your relationship, from sex, to cohabitation, to the way you spend your time together and everything in between.

When you care about someone, you'll do whatever it takes to help them out.
The power of friendship is being there for your friends through the good times and ESPECIALLY through the bad times, even if it means things get a little weird, case in point: the jellyfish incident.
Friendship is a two-way street. If you’re there for a friend, you can be sure that they’ll be there for you too. However, for future reference, urinating on jellyfish stings is no longer recommended, so unfortunately Monica was peed on for no reason. But hey, it’s the thought that counts!

The road to true love doesn't run straight.
During the admittedly weird Joey/Rachel arc of the show, Ross had to deal with some unexpected road blocks to his happily ever after. Facing the reality of his ex-girlfriend and one of his best friends as a couple was a little too much for him to handle, even though he and Rachel hadn’t been a couple for six years. In truth, life can throw you many curveballs out of nowhere that can knock you sideways.
You can play it like Ross and drown your sorrows in endless margaritas, but it's probably best to air your concerns in a sober environment. Otherwise, you may find yourself doing a striptease to the Chicago soundtrack.
