We all have our favorite ‘Friends’ character, but have you ever wondered which one would actually be your perfect BFF in real life? The gang from Central Perk might share an unbreakable bond on screen, but each brings something distinctly different to the friendship table.

Maybe you need Rachel’s fashion sense and growth mindset, Monica’s organizational skills and fierce loyalty, or Phoebe’s unique outlook and authentic honesty. Perhaps Joey’s big heart and dedication to food would make him your ideal hangout buddy, while Chandler’s humor might be what gets you through tough times, or Ross’s intellectual curiosity and commitment could be what you value most in a friend.

While we can’t actually transport you to apartment 20 or reserve you a spot on that iconic orange couch, this quiz will reveal which ‘Friends’ character would most likely become your real-world BFF based on your personality, values, and how you handle life’s pivotal moments.

So grab a giant coffee cup, maybe a muffin (or seven, if you’re feeling like Joey), and let’s find out which Friend would be there for you!
