It may not be "nice". But I remember what she said. That Rachel may not have married Barry, but she married hers. She's unhappy and gave up her happiness for comfort and luxury. And she thought that was the better option, so she taught her kids that. Seeing Rachel struggle AND succeed, it showed she could be wrong. Living in an unhappy marriage isn't self-less. It's toxic.
Well, you gotta own your mistakes. Take the responsibility. You wanna leave? Fine. But you don't have to act inappropriately. Rachel didn't go to smoke pot, find out what's new in sex and do another reckless stuff after leaving "her" Barry. She owned it to Barry, her family and her friends, got a job, a place to live and start taking control of life, even though with mistakes. Now her mom didn't even talk to her husband, Rachel has the greatest point there.
@@ИванБорисюк-п7э True, but her mom is older. More than likely it's not born out of excitement of freedom, but excitement at trying to have the youth she never got to experience since she was the "proper wife". I agree, she definitely needs to reel it in. But it's an understandable, though... uncomfortable part of her decision.
@@retired-s5h Nope. And that's a good thing. Being nice to each other is the bare minimum for human interaction. In the same way that just staying fit and supportive isn't enough for women, having money and being a provider isn't enough for men. If relationships are built on the extraneous perks, then there's nothing in the actual relationship. It's hollow. It can be fun if everyone's okay with that, but it's not the best if you're looking for long term.
True, Leonard gets a lot of well deserved scorn for spoiling his daughters. But Sandra also permitted his toxic behaviour, and pressured the girls into marrying for money and comfort, not for love.
Its because it's really hard to get out a mentality of your era that you were raised with, your parents practiced, society practiced and then you practiced. There was no alternative for her. But Rachel broke the cycle and she finally saw the other option.
The irony of all this is that Marlo Thomas is famous for portraying the first sitcom character that was an unmarried, career-driven city girl who doesn't live with her parents, which inspired future characters like Mary Richards, Carrie Bradshaw, and Rachel Green herself.
Honesty, dedication to a promise declared before witnesses, is inspiring, empowering, beautiful. But, sadly, sometimes, you have to break promises. But every time you do, you die some.
I know many women who married for money and the security more than for love. They're led to believe that having a husband, a house, kids, etc. leads to happiness. But, they're still not happy, and the kids ultimately suffer for it😢
@@gaurynair7639Dr. Greene was in the same situation as Sandra but he gave it his all to the relationship and never once thought about breaking the vows. That's commitment and we should respect that.
I agree with Chandler, technically it was Rachel's fault because running out on her wedding triggered the domino effect by causing her parents to get divorced
2:19 - Ummm, with that kind of dicing, we are supposed to believe that Monica is a chef? Do you think Courtney Cox could have studied AT ALL to prepare for playing a chef? Pathetic.
Penny's making a huge mistake. Rachel was at least sure she wanted to make something of herself, but Penny seems like she's not passionate enough to work for anything, in any field, up to 65...
Doctors are only rich if their in the medical industry for like 2 decades. New doctors who just graduated arent rich cos the pay is low. Callcenter agents earn more than them. So if ur gonna marry a doctor, pick the old ones those are the ones highly paid.

Barry seems to be a good guy, so a good average guy with enough money is not enough.

Yeah, literally made for each other.

"I'm dicing,I'm dicing,I don't hear anything" 😅😅
2:47 this is the best line in this entire show, my opinion.
Agree...
I played that part on repeat. Each single time, my heart breaks the same way.
The irony of all this is that Marlo Thomas is famous for portraying the first sitcom character that was an unmarried, career-driven city girl who doesn't live with her parents, which inspired future characters like Mary Richards, Carrie Bradshaw, and Rachel Green herself.
wow the last line really broke my heart... 💔
Yeah it was really heartbreaking
It's pure propaganda. You eventually start loving the person in a marriage arrangement like this. Love is a journey, not a destination.
@@r91playsind so shall i marry mine, i want to stay single
@@prajaktakhairkar9054 If he is a good person whom you can respect, I say go ahead.
Monica's timing hahaha
0:51 I think I just heard Lisa laughing
Me too
U r so right
The way Phoebe said😂
"lesbian wedding, chicken breast"
Hahahahhahaha
1:03-1:12 HELLOOOOO?!!! Rachel, that’s one of the biggest signs right there!
2:41-2:53 In other words, Rachel-GET A CLUE!!!!
1:55 that line killed me 😂😂
0:46 that IS in fact, really cute 😍
Lol Chandler's last line was savage
Lol Rachel's mom was the only woman in America who didn't copy Rachel's haircut
That was clever of the writers
I will always love " That Girl " !☺
I always laugh when watching friends video... But this one got me to cry...
"What's new in sex?" is one of the best lines ever.
Yes the mother is Marlo Thomas.
1:58
Rachel: What the hell mom
Monica: The hell I just heard?
Marlo Thomas....That Mom❤
1:36 couldn't she just copy my haircut?
Honesty, dedication to a promise declared before witnesses, is inspiring, empowering, beautiful.
But, sadly, sometimes, you have to break promises. But every time you do, you die some.
Rachel should be more understandable to her mom though.
You should understand Rachel more
I know rachel isn't a saint but why do you people always make rachel seem like the bad guy in every situation? she is not that bad
The last line😢😢
The last line is so sad ☹️

No concern for the man who was manipulated into thinking he is loved but was only used? The usual I guess.
“So, what’s new in sex?”
Everyone will be unhappy with Rachel's dad.
Guess I am the only one who feels bad for Dr Greene. To find out he was nothing but a provider she used until she no longer needs him.
and u dont feel bad for sandra where she was actually forced to marry him simply because thats the norm of the society as a woman
Dr Greene is aggressive and cantankerous, look at how he yells at people, the lady had to live with him, anyone would want to run away from him
Lol..... this comment is the perfect example of male privilege and patriarchy.....

Did Jennifer Aniston made a jab at that famous “haircut” at 1:36 ?
More than likely….she hated that haircut
It was named, THE RACHEL
Thank God, there's no Christopher Bingham here
I agree with Chandler, technically it was Rachel's fault because running out on her wedding triggered the domino effect by causing her parents to get divorced
I blame Penny personally. The way she treats Leonard is almost certainly why these two are splitting up.
TBBT
I deadass thought my yt page was glitching and i got the wrong comment section 😹😭
@@LunaAngu Same
Hahahaha. Naughty.
Episode number?
"You Didn't marry your Barry honey, I did.
She doesn't look bad in those Asian dresses.
It's called qipao.
does that last line suggests that rachel shouldn't marry anyone ? but monika did or finding guy after you get stability by your own ?
Wat is this comment section
Thank god i wasn't the only one
@@shrutikoli7174 nah sis we all here
They are making TBBT jokes that I don't get.
PURGATORY
I dont get it either
Her mother is totally not right when telling all this stuff to Rachel
2:19 - Ummm, with that kind of dicing, we are supposed to believe that Monica is a chef? Do you think Courtney Cox could have studied AT ALL to prepare for playing a chef? Pathetic.
Oh u guys are finally moving out I'll have the stuff u came with ready for u
WARIOO CHEATSS
Hey, tell me if this is too cute: Friends selling progressive woke notions before we knew they were woke notions. Same old Hollyweird.
🤣🤣
I can't believe women marry men they don't love just because they are doctors...it's not like they gonna their husbands qualifications 🤪
Its the financial security and social respectability that comes with being a doctor, i guess.
Penny's making a huge mistake. Rachel was at least sure she wanted to make something of herself, but Penny seems like she's not passionate enough to work for anything, in any field, up to 65...
And some men marry for looks so..
Doctors are only rich if their in the medical industry for like 2 decades.
New doctors who just graduated arent rich cos the pay is low. Callcenter agents earn more than them.
So if ur gonna marry a doctor, pick the old ones those are the ones highly paid.
@@antithoughtpolice7497
Rachel's mom is called Sandra, not Penny. The comment you saw before was a joke.
What.
1:35 well every other Western woman att tried to (and most white women loved it)... *The Rachel...*
... and this whole episode made me feel bad for the whole family.
disgusting thing to say about someone you married. how dare she live such a lie
Yeah ..
Though I did not watch the show, I always knew Rachel was a total b-tch for not considering everybody else's feelings ...
watch the show before passing judgements
The mom was a total bitch for saying this stuff to rachel and people act like the other main characters were saints
Feminism smh
Divorce is a sin
