How can we understand the order of pronouns better?


I believe everybody has seen this picture many times in the sports column.  
Do you remember this?  Well, I do and I use it to explain the order of pronouns  in sentences.

I can say for example:

I  like  to see my girlfriend!!!
personal pronoun       possessive pronoun     
My  car is the best, its a Volkswagen  (... it´s mine)!!
possessive pronoun

And I can use the pronouns is the same sequence as in the picture above.

In the first column we can find the personal pronouns 
                                   (I, you, he, she it, we you they)

In the second column we find the possessive pronouns 
                                   (my, your, his, her, its, our, your, their)

In the third column we find the object pronoun 
                                    (me, you, him, her, it us, you, them)

He likes to see  her.
He works with me.
1st                                 3rd

I would like to take my friend with me.   
1st                                             2nd                               3rd


Did you understand?  If so click like!
