We all are familiar with the television show Friends. The popular 1990s, early 2000s sitcom. A group of six friends who do anything and everything together. While watching the show every week, these six individuals became our friends. These six friends taught us more about life that you thought.

1. Welcome to the Real World! It Sucks. You're Gonna Love It!

The very first episode. Monica tells Rachel "welcome to the real world! it sucks. you're going to love it!', trying to comfort her friend. But it is the truth. The real world does suck. We have all these responsibilities: school, work, bills, tuition, etc. But being in the real world you learn more and more about yourself and get to have amazing experiences. So even with the pain of responsibility you get to enjoy yourself and love the real world.

2. Everyone Has Their Lobster

You know how it goes, everyone has a their person they are supposed to spend the rest of their lives with. Everyone seems to be impatient to find the love of their life. But Phobe says, "It’s a known fact that lobsters fall in love and mate for life. You know what? You can actually see old lobster couples walkin’ around their tank, you know, holding claws." which introduced the phrase that everyone has their lobster. Calm down and be patient your lobster is out there.

3. Communication is Key

Everyone knows that communication is the key in any healthy relationship. Friends showed us good and bad examples of communication multiple times through out the show. But everyone remembers the constant arguing between Ross and Rachel about being on a break.

4. It Is OK To Fail

Sometimes you have to fail in life in order to learn something or fully understand it. Everyone of your six friends failed at some point or another. Failing at something is not the end of the world, it is a part of life. And you know what? Your friends are going to be there for you to help you get back on your feet.

5. Friends Are Your Family

Yes everyone enjoys being with their family, but it is not always possibly. Your friends are always there for you and they become your family. Your true friends will always tell you what you need to hear and are a constant support for you. Your friends are always there for you.
