The best Chandler and Monica quotes from Friends highlight why theirs was truly the MVP relationship on the show.
Ross and Rachel were given more attention, with a romance that goes right from the pilot to the finale, but the relationship that formed between Chandler and Monica was sweeter because the audience saw them as friends for so long. Seeing how that relationship grew into something more was one of the best arcs in the series and made for some heartwarming and funny quotes from the duo.
With the sad passing of Matthew Perry, the romance between Chandler and Monica has been revisited by many fans as it gave Chandler some of his best moments as a character. From the moments where the couple faces their doubts together to their offering each other support to declaring their love for each other, these Chandler and Monica quotes from Friends provide some beautiful memories to look back on.
The entire saga of Monica and Chandler trying to keep their relationship a secret from the others makes for some of the funniest moments in the series, especially when Phoebe comes on to Chandler as a way of pushing him to reveal the relationship. However, while the others assume this is just a random fling, Chandler ultimately surrenders by declaring his love for her. It is a moment that shows the relief and excitement he has that he can finally tell everyone just how much he loves her.
There is another hilarious Monica-Chandler moment when they have to lie about their relationship, but for a very different reason. When Chandler’s rude and obnoxious boss invites the couple out, Monica refuses and Chandler decides to lie and say they broke up. The plan backfires as his boss takes Chandler on a night of drinking and strip clubs. However, there is a surprisingly sweet moment when Chandler returns home and makes Monica promise to never actually leave him, as he caught a glimpse of that reality and did not like it at all.
Chandler had several relationships before dating Monica, but none of them were very successful. As a result, he didn’t really know the realities of an adult relationship. Early in their dating, Chandler and Monica have a fight with Chandler fearing that this means the end of their relationship. However, Monica assures him that’s not how adult relationships really work and that what they have built is stronger than the occasional disagreement. Differences come up in every relationship, so Monica teaching Chandler that they just move on from those moments is a sign that this is the most mature relationship he’s been a part of and therefore a sweet Chandler and Monica quote.
