And it’s not with Joshua.

Summary:

  • Friends is the iconic 90's sitcom that has fans all over the world.
  • One of the main characters, Rachel, is famous for turning every crush into an obsession.
  • This particular time with Tag, she just crossed all the lines of sanity trying to end up with him.

Friends is a show that wins your heart because it is completely absurd and at the same time deals with the problems that you face in real life every day.

The harsh life of a 25+ single person in a big city is the main premise of the sitcom, combined with many other things, including of course the many romantic relationships.

At the center of the show are six main characters that you all know and love: Ross, Monica, Rachel, Joey, Phoebe, and Chandler. All of them have made many silly and embarrassing mistakes in their personal lives. For example, remember when Joey asked Monica to be his girlfriend and lied to her that Angela's boyfriend was actually her brother?

Or when Ross dated his underage student Elizabeth? Many fans found that relationship icky. But at least there was genuine affection from the start, and other than the student-teacher moral code, they didn't violate anything else.

But the one relationship that really grossed out the viewers was that of Rachel and Tag. Remember, her assistant with the tushy?

Well, it's the first thing that made fans put on a poker face when she didn't hire a professional secretary and instead gave the job to an inexperienced tongue man she thought was attractive.

What happened from there was nothing short of a disaster and a nightmare for any HR manager. Rachel became an obsessed woman who tried to control every aspect of her younger subordinate. She watched him work out and tried to keep him out of the dating pool. She even sabotaged his job several times.

“She knew he was dumb, so she exploited his stupidity to cover up her own mistakes. Like when she forgot to put the papers on his desk to send out, they head to the office and she realizes she messed up. Rather than owning it she tried to manipulate him, by placing the files in a drawer, so he would think he was a fool,” Redditor Fit_Marionberry_3878 said.

So we were happy to see her finally come to her senses and break up with Tag on her birthday. It was when she realized that she had no future with him and that the time for fooling around was over.
