Friends is one of those shows that I will never get tired of watching. There’s just something about the ’90s that will always be so comforting to me — maybe it’s because that was the last decade I could fit into my college jeans.
Regardless, their reunion special aired on HBO Max Thursday and has given fans a lot of behind-the-scenes secrets, including the fact that our very own ROSS AND RACHEL had crushes on each other!

It’s hard to believe it’s been 17 years since Friends went off the air.
However, the show’s dedicated fanbase always kept the show relevant. Their dedication to Monica, Rachel, Phoebe, Chandler, Ross, and Joey has lasted well over 20 years.
Now, fans of the franchise are getting the special they have been begging for.
Friends: The Reunion was released on HBO Max on Thursday and has already broken the internet with vital information for super fans everywhere .
As it turns out, Ross and Rachel weren’t just crushing on each other for the cameras!
That’s right! Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer admitted during the reunion that they were mutually crushing on each other for years!
“I mean, the first season, I had a major crush on Jen. At some point, we were crushing hard on each other,” David admitted.
“But it was like two ships passing, because one of us was always in a relationship and we never crossed that boundary. We respected that.”
Jennifer then recalled a conversation she had with David about their eventual first kiss. “Honestly, I remember saying one time to David, ‘It’s going to be such a bummer if the first time you and I actually kiss is going to be on national television,'” she recalled.
“Sure enough, first time we kissed was in that coffee shop.”
She continued, “So we just channeled all of our adoration and love for each other into Ross and Rachel.”
Honestly, I still am rooting for these two to get together!
