7. Her Strange Romantic Choices

Phoebe's love choices have always been weird and unreliable, so much so that the rest of her character is pretty weird as well. She went out with this scientist who disappears into thin air, and, in retaliation for being dumped, she nicknamed him "Crap Bag," and that's a name that stuck. And her love story is full of heart and laughter. From her offbeat relationships with the scientist David to her marriage with Mike Hannigan, the love life of Phoebe is full of comical absurdity.
