Joshua! Josh-uh ah! Joshua!

Those are the sounds of a woman who really likes someone, and that's what you get with Joshua and Rachel. Of course, the romantic coupling of Ross/Rachel is one for the ages, but in another lifetime, it genuinely could have been these two becoming each other's lobsters, and fans would have lapped it up.

Joshua was a client of Rachel's during her time as a personal shopper at Bloomingdale's. As a recently divorced man, he was hesitant to jump into anything, but, after some time and a few hilarious seduction attempts from Rachel - never forget that Bon Voyage party she threw - they got together and began taking things slow.

Rachel ended up costing herself this relationship, as her obsession with Ross and Emily's quick-moving romance caused plenty of friction, and she scared Joshua off with talks of marriage. Despite this, he was a very likeable guy who treated her nicely and helped to teach her a little bit about patience and maturity.
