I had long avoided the last episode of Friends for one very simple reason. I didn't want it to end.
Yesterday, I guess I was kind of bored, and a marathon of this T.V. show was on Warner Channel Latin America, so I thought "what the heck" and watch it until the end. How much I regret this.
There are plenty of things I hated about the last episode. Some, like the fact I rarely watch again any tv show after seeing the ending, concern only me. Some others, like how much I hate Ross and Rachel beign together, might be more relatable to you.
Once in university, a professor said that Friends represented all that we wanted in life. She said "how many of you are going for a coffee later with your friends to talk about your private lives and adventures?" That was an appalling slap on my face because that was exactly what my plan was. For a long time, I was so proud of my life being as light as a season of Friends and always having that comforting closure by the end of each season. Time went on and just like in the T.V. show, the bonds between our group of friends grew stronger. One thing was missing from my life -- because yeah, I'm a Rachel kind of guy-- love. Ross is far from being prince charming, but hey! aren't his feelings for Rachel truthful and can't they work their differences out? I didn't get too excited about true love because RACHEL IS GOING TO PARIS! I repeated to myself. That's how it ends. I move on with my life and love is going to be just part of it, not the center.
Rachel and Ross. Their comes and goes in real life would have made them grow apart. Seriously, out there no one gets you out of a plane. But don't you hate how things always get back on track for the two of them and in a rather Disney Studios ending they keep selling us the idea that true love exists? My last break up took my heart out of my chest and pumelled it against the ground, and took something I once deeply loved to a hateful place of no return. I was through beleiving in happy endings, and once again became aware of how selfish people are... until I saw this and now I can't help but to hope I'll see my life becoming a fairy tale.
Don't you hate that? Stupid Rachel and Ross. It's all their fault.
