All 18 Major Romantic Relationships on Friends Explained and Ranked By Normalcy (5 of 9)

Rachel and Tag (Season 7)

Rachel’s brief romance with Tag was a whirlwind of attraction. Initially, Tag’s youthful charm and handsome appearance intrigued Rachel, leading to a romantic connection. However, their connection lacked depth, and the relationship faced challenges as they navigated the complexities of dating in the workplace. The power dynamic, with Rachel as his boss, raised eyebrows, not to mention ethical questions. Ultimately, there were too many complications to allow the relationship to work. Rachel’s desire for maturity and Tag’s fear of commitment forced them to split.

Chandler and Janice (Seasons 1 and 3)

The Chandler and Janice relationship saga was an on-again, off-again rollercoaster ride for Chandler. Her nasally voice and signature, “Oh. My. God!” drove him absolutely crazy. Despite breakups, fate (or their apartment layouts) kept throwing them together. Though a part of Chandler might have settled for Janice’s familiarity, his desire for growth and maturity (and her confessed feelings for her ex-husband) led him to pursue Monica. She did occasionally show up again for the duration of the series to annoy him (and the audience) with her catchphrase.
