Whenever you are looking for a roommate, you always want to know specific things about them. This can include characteristics like if they're clean, nice, or if you both have similar personalities. But most importantly, you want to know that you and your future roommate will be super compatible. If you want to strive towards an awesome roommate relationship, look no further than the friendship of Chandler Bing and Joey Tribbiani from Friends. These two are probably the closest roommates in the history of television, and future roommates should take note on why Joey and Chandler are ultimate roommate goals.

1. They both know how to have fun cost effectively and without too much preparation.

2. Personal space is (almost) always respected.

3. In times of crisis (like losing their best friend's baby), Joey and Chandler have essential decision-making skills.

4. Joey and Chandler both knew how to relax (even though spending two days straight sitting in recliners isn't the best idea).

6. They were capable of deep, intellectual conversations.

7. They know the right way to decorate their apartment.

Who knew a canoe would be a great piece of furniture?

8. They can laugh at anything, even when deciding what to eat.

9. They know how to enter any room with style.

Seriously, is there any other way to enter a room with that much style?

10. They could share any secret without any shame.

Fun fact: Chandler didn't cry when Bambi's mother died because "It was very sad when the guy stopped drawing the dear."

11. Even though Joey and Chandler could get into major fights, whether it's wearing all of Chandler's clothes....

"Oh my God! That is so not the opposite of stealing somebody's underpants!"

12. Or when Chandler accidentally slept with one of Joey's sisters (and forgot which one it was)....

13. They knew how to resolve conflict very easily, and remain best friends in the process.

14. And even though they both had imperfections, Joey and Chandler had one of the strongest roommate friendships ever.
