I thought this might be kind of fun for Friends Friday. There are 6 friends and the group kind of formed pretty naturally.
Let's start with Phoebe... she used to live with Monica before the events of the show took place. I believe according to The One With The Flashbacks she moved out 3 years before the show started. She remained friends with Monica- but she didn't think she could still be friends with her if they were all living together. And Phoebe is Phoebe so of corse she got along well with the rest of the group.
She also has some connections to Ross... In The One With The Mugging we find out that she actually mugged ross and she took his Science Boy comic that ross created. Which she kept years later. She also kissed him in The One With The Flashbacks.
Of corse she's friends with everyone else through Monica.
And Actually... I should have probably started out with Monica because Monica is really the glue that holds the whole gang together. Monica and Ross really.
So Monica is Ross's sister- so that's how they know each other. She was also best friends with Rachel in high school and even though they hadn't talked in years- when Rachel leaves Barry to start a new life- she knows Monica would be the one friend to accept her and take her under her wing.
Chandler and Joey live across the hall from Monica- so that's one way they got to be friends- but Chandler was also Ross's college roommate and best friend. Monica also convinces Chandler to chose Joey as his roommate because Monica has a crush on him... which is funny because obviously Monica and Chandler end up together.
Joey and Chandler's friendship was just a super organic friendship that happened when they were living together... which is the same way Ross and Chandler became friends if you think about it.
So yeah who all lived together...
Ross and Monica grew up together obviously.
Ross and Chandler lived together in college and then again in season 5 when Ross moves in with Chandler and Joey after his divorce and eviction.
Monica and Phoebe live together before the show starts and Phoebe moves in with her grandma after that.
Joey moves in with Chandler sometime before the show started.
Rachel moves in with Monica when she first comes to New York.
Monica and Rachel switch Apartments with Joey and Chandler in Season 4 after Monica and Rachel lose a game. They get it back by kissing in front of Joey and Chandler for 5 minutes I think.
Monica and Chandler move in together in season 6 and Rachel moves in with Phoebe.
Sometime towards the end of Season 6 Phoebe moves in with Monica and Chandler and Rachel moves in with Joey. Then in season 7 they find out that they changed Phoebe's 2 bedroom apartment to a one bedroom- so Phoebe moves back in there and Rachel stays with Joey.
Phoebe and Ross live together for a few weeks when Phoebe tries to give Monica and Chandler some privacy when they just get engaged.
And Rachel moves in with Ross when she is pregnant with Emma and Joey is afraid Ross is going to miss out on important things during Rachel's pregnancy. Plus Joey is in love with Rachel and it's hard to be around her. And then when things get too weird between Rachel and Ross- Rachel moves back in with Joey.
So I think that is everything! Hope you guys like it! Ohhh also Ross lived in Monica's apartment when he tried to make it as a Dancer one summer... which was mentioned in one of the final lines of the show.
Bye!
