If you think lobsters mate for life, think again; the truth is far more interesting. Strangely, many people believe that they do. In one episode "Friends," when Ross and Rachel finally get together, their friend Phoebe (the sentimental one) swoons and says, "See, he's her lobster." In fact, Rachel should have been offended by this comment. For starters, it meant that Ross was going to dump her after two weeks and then go on to mate with every other woman in the building.
