Apparently they were meant to meet up for love-making once a month
(and while I like Phoebe and Mike together, seeing Phoebe and David break up broke my heart
""and then you tell me that you love me and you'll never forget me. And then you say it's almost midnight and you say you gotta go because you don't wanna start the new year with me if you can't finish it". I'm gonna miss you, you scientist guy."

anywho
Joey x Phoebe
Probably the best friendship and the most dynamic, for a good while I wanted them to get together. However as the seasons progressed it felt like they had no sexual chemistry? So I was sorta put off by them getting together. and I think if Joey was developed better he would've been great for Phoebe
What really resonates with me is when Phoebe gets married she emphasises how she never had a family but now she does.
And I get thinking about who has a notably big family - Joey. Yet his family propped up once (or maybe twice). I really think if his sisters had more of a recurring role in Friends it could've set up for a great Phoebe and Joey relationship. For one, we would've got to see Joey's more protective and brotherly side that was only apparent in the episode where Chandler kissed one of his sisters, and that would've nicely contrasted to how he could come off as ignorant of women's feelings sometimes. And I like to think that Phoebe would've seen how protective and loving he is, and how he has a family, and I like to think the two of them could've grown together. Phoebe subconsciously wanting a family could've paired well with Joey slowly mellowing down from his womanising ways and how he is a family man (also, with how great he was with Emma, it's pretty clear he would've also wanted children, just like Phoebe)
Like I really think they could've worked as they were if they just hooked up and married in Season 10 because they had that chemistry but there were groundworks that could've been set up to make them really work better
