Hear my opinion out, Monica and Chandler(From FRIENDS) are my favorite on-screen couple in the history of sitcom followed by Wanda and Vision (From Disney’s Wanda Vision). Here’s the catch Monica and Chander (we’ll call them MONDLER because it’s way cuter) has a lot of similarities with Wanda and Vision, provided that Vision is just a computer program. I always wanted to have a spin-off show just for MONDLER just like they had one for Joey.

Okay, now we’ll get into the subject, but this post might contain some spoilers of Wanda Vision before that.

Wanda is a Rockstar.

Have you ever seen this 2011 Bollywood movie called Rockstar starring Ranbir Kapoor and directed by Imtiaz Ali? Such a wonderful movie, in which Ranbir is a struggling singer trying to get his break, and at a point his mentor acknowledges him that “All the famous and successful people in their own field have something in common and that is pain”. Only when you’ve suffered too much pain you could unleash your complete potential and that’s what happened to Wanda. Wanda has suffered a lot from her childhood, right from losing her parents in Sokolvia, to losing her brother in Avengers Age of Ultron.

After all the misery she’s been through, the only ray of hope, warmth, love everything was Vision. Vision gave Wanda everything she needed, even though he wasn’t capable for those emotions, he tried himself out for Wanda’s happiness but poor Wanda she lost Vision in Avengers Infinity War and that’s when Wanda was pushed to the height of pain and grief and that led her to create her own Alternate Reality where she starred her very own Sitcom and she eventually had what she lost from her childhood, a family.

So now what does Monica had common with Wanda?

The Mothers

Unlike Wanda, Monica didn’t have a rough childhood, the only issue she had was being fat, but one major common factor that both Wanda and Monica share is, they both wanted to be mothers, they wanted to love and to be loved by someone special.

Monica is the life of the party, she’s the one who holds the group together, she’s already a mother to four grown-up adults and Joey (You’ll get this if you watch friends closely).

and every man needs a Monica to care for and adore him all the life, Monica is one of a kind woman, she never needs a man she’s what a man needs. The way she changed Chandler was so amazing, Chandler was a guy funny, makes jokes when he is uncomfortable, hopeless, and desperate for love after he loses himself in Monica he was still funny but he completely changed his persona. Even though they had some rough times she never let anyone laugh at him. She’s a literal angel. So is Wanda.

Both Vision and Chandler were in guilt that they couldn’t able give their wifes a baby and that hurt them a lot but in the end, both of them got two lovely babies to love.

Wanda on the other hand is a literal superstar. She changed a computer program, a literal computer program into a being capable of emotions, how cool is she.

To all the Chandlers and Visions out there

To the guys who are funny, hopeless, and pathetic, don’t you worry you’re Monica is still out there somewhere, don’t lose yourself to a fake one and even if you got your heart broken already, don’t worry man, you haven’t met your Wanda yet.

and if you want to cry a little watch this clip and to the men who are reading this, it’s okay to cry.
