21 Problems Only Friends Fans Will Understand

13. Worrying The Actors Are No Longer Friends IRL

NBC

One of the great things about the show, and something that really helped sell it to audiences and make it believable, is just how close the cast seem to be in real life; it's as if they actually are all best friends. There have been plenty of instances over the years that this is indeed the case, and whenever the cast are spotted out together it faith in this belief and the concept of friendship as a whole is reaffirmed.

Generally it is the girls, especially Monica and Rachel (sorry, Courtney and Jennifer) who genuinely seem to be BFFs. That leads to the worry. Why aren't the guys there? How come we never hear from David Schwimmer? Wait, Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc weren't invited to Jennifer Aniston's wedding, but Courtney Cox and Lisa Kudrow were? This is the worst.

In truth, they're probably all still friends, even if they do have separate lives and busy schedules, but it's sad to think they're not just constantly hanging out at the coffee house.
