Signs You Might Be the Chandler Bing in Your Friend Group

The last episode of Friends aired in 2004, but the show is still featured on TV nearly every night. There is no doubt that Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Chandler, Ross and Joey captured the hearts of millions of people across the world during the 10 year run of the sitcom. While each character is unique in their handling of situations, sense of humor and profession, it is not hard to see pieces of yourself in each of them. However, there has always been that one character who you just saw too much of yourself in for it to be a coincidence. For me, that character was the sarcastic, melodramatic Chandler Bing. Since making this realization a few years ago, I’ve come to realize that I just am the Chandler of my friend group. Here are some signs that you are, too.

1. Your expressions are over-the-top but appropriate.

2. The cynical thinking just comes naturally.

3. Dancing isn't your strong suit.


4. Unrelenting. Sarcasm.

5. Relationships aren't your strong suit, either.

6. You never really grew up.

7. Comedy is your strong suit.

8. But advice isn't.

9. Teasing your friends is your favorite past time.

10. Your friendships are the most important things in your life.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
