The classic sitcom Friends made its debut in 1994 and has left imprints on many of our hearts in more ways than one. Some of us may have lived right through the characters as they followed along with each weekly episode the second they premiered; while others have continuously watched re-runs after our parents told us it was well worth it.

Throughout all 10 seasons, we laughed at Phoebe's quirkiness and spontaneity, cried for Rachel's ongoing struggle with love, and realized just how much we strive to be as organized and sweet as the girl-next-door Monica. While the show would be no where without those 3 memorable women, no one can deny the presence of the 3 most charming, somewhat awkward, yet alwayshumorous men; Chandler, Ross and Joey.

Amidst our tears, both good and bad, these 3 men helped the show grow into what it's remembered for today. Perhaps without us even realizing it, Chandler, Ross and Joey have altogether enveloped what it means to be the perfect man and have made for the perfect equation of the title, "man of your dreams."

Here's why.

~ Ross - The Emotional, Awkward, yet Intelligent Romantic

You can't help but appreciate someone with a big heart, something none other than Ross Geller has. Wearing his heart on his sleeve, Ross cares deeply about his friends and family and at the end of the day just wants what is best for them. Not to mention, his academic intelligence is an additional plus that only adds to his romantic charm. While his dramatic clumsiness comes off a bit (well, very) socially awkward at times, he's a good reminder for you that you can't always be perfect and if you stay true to the person you are, it can take you where you need and want to be in life.

~ Chandler - The Sarcastic, Curious, yet Lovable Realist

Everyone loves a man with humor, someone to make them laugh day in and day out. Chandler Bing undoubtedly has that ability and will do all he can to see you smile. Chandler is often hard on himself and very much focused on the realities of life like working a dead-end job and desperately looking for love. But it's his perfect combination of wit, maturity, and curiosity of the world happening around him that will keep you enjoying life in all it's ups and downs, and hoping he's there next to you every step of the way.

~ Joey - The Handsome, Smug, yet Food Loving Charmer

Full of love (mostly for himself) while full of food, Joey Tribbiani is the ultimate heart-throb, finding every chance he can get to flirt. He's the undeniably handsome actor everyone wants to be with. While lacking some common sense, Joey can be the biggest teddy bear, open to sharing his feelings and comforting hugs, but not any crumb of his food. He carries an innocence to the world that is hard to resist, and while doing all he can to be the only man for you, he manages to somehow also become your new best friend in the process. Even if it's just eating a cheap dinner while watching the ball game together, it doesn't take much to make Joey happy being with you.

It's hard denying Ross, Chandler, and Joey together combine to make the ideal man; one who loves large, is always making you laugh, and allows you to live a little carefree. While just characters on one of the most popular TV shows of our time, one can only hope to find him, whether you call him "the man of your dreams," theone or your one-of-a-kind RossChandlerJoey of the world.
