If you know me, you know that I LOVE "Friends." I've seen the whole series straight through at least four or five times and have seen almost every episode over eight times. Everytime I watch, I can't help but notice how terrible Monica treats Chandler, so I recently decided to watch the series all the way through in order to find (almost) every instance where she was horrible to Chandler. Here is definitive proof that Monica Geller doesn't deserve Chandler Bing:
1. She actually was going to sleep with Joey when they were in London for Ross and Emily's wedding but settled with Chandler when Joey wasn't there.
She and Chandler had been together for over a year before she told her parents
2. He saved her when she made the candy for the neighbors and they crowded outside.
She didn't deserve that, especially with the way she treats him.
3. She fell asleep in the middle of sex.
Granted they were both tired, that's a huge slap in the face.
4. She ran to Richard when Chandler was saying that he didn't believe in marriage
which he was only saying because he wanted to completely surprise her with his proposal
5. She made the entire proposal/engagement about her and completely forgot about him.
She even got pissed at Rachel for "stealing her thunder."
6. She hated Chandler's smile so much that she made Joey take a photo with her for the engagement announcement in the paper.
7. She threw a fit about him not wanting to spend his entire savings on the wedding.
"I thought about it too and when I proposed I said I would do anything to make you happy, and if having the perfect wedding will make you happy then that's what we'll do"
8. She barely let him help with the wedding planning at all.
Anytime he'd make a suggestion, she'd shoot him down.
9. She freaked out and got upset that she can never sleep with another person again because they were getting married.
10. When they were checking out of the hotel after the wedding, Monica freaked out that she'd never be considered a "bride" again and that she'd only be a "wife" from there on out.
She said that she had nothing to look forward to.
11. She opened the wedding presents without him.
12. She wanted to prank him and tell him she wants to try to have a baby, but then freaks out when he says he's actually ready to have a baby.
He said, "I'm crazy about us."
13. Phoebe was planning her birthday and said, "It'll be exciting to have all six of us together again." & Monica responded, "What do you mean? We're all here now."
Rachel had to remind her that Chandler wasn't there.
14. She pretended to forgive him for smoking just to have sex with him because he didn't want to have sex while they were fighting.
15. She changed the wedding China on the registry without telling Chandler.
He didn't find out until the next Thanksgiving.
16. She forgot to tell Chandler that the play Joey was sending them to was to distract them while he threw a party on the roof.
While Chandler suffered through a one-woman play, she was hanging out at the soap opera party fawning over celebrities.
17. She pretended to be a reverend to adopt their baby.
When Chandler told her he wanted to be honest with the birth mother, she got upset and still pretended to be a reverend anyway.
18. When Chandler confessed and the birth mom got upset, he convinced her to choose them regardless of the fact.
He knew she wanted a baby more than anything and asked the birth mom to consider them while she sat in the room and sulked.
19. She never officially changed her name to Monica Geller-Bing.
She just lied and told him she did.
Obviously I'm not a huge fan of the way that she treats Chandler. He is very faithful and loyal to her. He is able to talk her down from her crazy thoughts. He constantly reassures her of his feelings. Although he is goofy, he's a pretty sentimental guy.
