Some point during their relationship Rachael got herself a new job but she started working late night hours and she hardly spent anytime with Ross, she also had a work colleague called Mark and though there was nothing happening between them the fact that she was always working late with him and the fact that Ross had experienced losing someone to another before caused him to worry. This in turn caused Ross to act jealous and possessive and he started to smother Rachael, even though it is clear where Ross is getting his strange behaviour from Rachael still puts her job before Ross and deemed him as being annoying, eventually it went to the point where Rachael snapped and said they should "take a break". Both were feeling down from their argument so Ross to go to a bar and Rachael to go and talk to Mark (still nothing happened), though Ross phoned Rachael to apologize and give it a second chance and she was agreeing he heard Mark over the phone and Ross got the wrong idea and hung up before Rachael can explain. Afterwards while Ross was drunk, depressed and under the impression Rachael is with Mark he allowed himself to be seduced by Chloe (a woman who works at a copy shop who apparently fancied Ross). After Ross and Chloe had sex Rachael went over to see Ross to try and explain everything and though they did reconcile at first Rachael eventually found out what happened and after a dramatic scene they broke up.

Through out the series they continue to have an on - off relationship, E.G Rachael said she's get back together with Ross if he read an 18 page front and back long letter at 3 in the morning and Ross fell asleep and agreed to the terms the next day without knowing that the terms were that he takes full blame for everything that went wrong in the relationship (which is false because if you read the above description even though Ross slept with Chloe they were both partially responsible); and they eventually fell out over that. Another example is when Rachael gave birth to their baby Emma and moves into his apartment, Ross deep down thaught this might be a chance for them to get back together but started acting possesive over her seeing other men even though they weren't officially back together.

By the last few episodes of the series (a good 8-10 years after they split up) they both decided to look past there past immaturities, admittied that they both love each other and finally reconciled.

Ross and Rachel have been on and off throughout the whole 10 series. Here are some reasons why they broke up... Ross believed that Rachel was falling for her handsome colleague Mark, though this wasn't strictly true. Rachel was getting fed up with Ross and his insecurity, and suggested they went on a break for a while. Ross, upset, went to a club with Joey and Chandler and ended up staying the night with the girl who invited them, which Rachel later found out. In series 9, the episode after Rachel gave birth, Joey finds an engagement ring in Ross' jacket whilst looking for tissues for Rachel. Rachel thinks Joey wants to marry her- and agrees! Ross, furious with Joey, finds out and starts to wonder if things will ever work out. After giving birth to Ross' baby Emma in series 8, the pair continued living together, as roommates. When Rachel returns from her maternity leave, she finds a male coworker who has taken over her job. After a shaky start, she vows to be nice to him, and when Monica unwittingly invites him to her Birthday party later that night, she ends up kissing him on the balcony! Ross sees this, and decides to try and move on, like Rachel. But his plans go awry... In the last episode, Rachel leaves for Paris, but later leaves a phone message for Ross saying she loves him, and is trying to get off the plane. Ross, frantically wondering whether she did, turns around to find Rachel at his door. This is where it ends- Ross and Rachel together like they should be!
