If Mona from Friends was on Mumsnet...

(Yes I'm rewatching Friends for the hundredth time and I still feel sorry for her).

Ross tries to keep Rachel's pregnancy from her, gives her a key and then changes the locks, gets freaked out when she wants to do an xmas card with their names on, doesn't tell her he's moved Rachel in...

I can only imagine the AIBUs she would be posting!

Surely I'm not the only one who thinks she was treated appallingly?

Ross was an arsehole all round.

Whatsherface and Susan were not kind to him, but he treated Rachel and Mona appallingly.

Whos Mona? Do you mean Monica?

Afonavon · 23/09/2018 19:02

As my teen DD states...Friends is VERY problematic! Ross is a controlling a-hole indeed!

OlennasWimple · 23/09/2018 19:03

Yeah, Ross is a shit boyfriend and a shit brother.

He was a decent friend, though, I think?

Ross was a complete twat in all his relationships. Rachel should have got on that one plane and never looked back.

Ross was consistently the funniest and was the best acted role too

David Schwimmer had impeccable comedy timing

Mona was Ross’s girlfriend he met at Monica’s (I think?) wedding @blameanamechange

witchhazelblue · 23/09/2018 19:20

Yes one of Ross's girlfriends - didn't she work with Monica or something and that was why she was at her wedding?

Emily, not Mona.

Cheesymonster · 23/09/2018 19:22

I always felt sorry for Emily too, she didn't stand a chance. And what about Bonnie? And Julie?!

DolorestheNewt · 23/09/2018 19:22

Oh no, that was wife two, wasn't it!

OlennasWimple · 23/09/2018 19:25

I felt less sorry for Emily because Helen Baxendale (who I love in everything else she has done) played the role so very very badly

Poor Julie did nothing wrong - that's a cracking AIBU, though I suspect MN would have told her that she dodged a bullet Wink

Bonnie went off to be a happy bald girl

Bobbiepin · 23/09/2018 19:26

Ok so Ross wasn't the best boyfriend but do we have to feel sorry for all his girlfriends? Emily was never gonna work but she was quite U too, asking him to move to another country and leave Ben behind. Bonnie was nothing special.
