101 Ways to Make and Maintain Friendships

Grab your journal and make a list of the things your friends do that give you the feeling of being valued and connected. Then list the things that you do to demonstrate your commitment to your friends. Are there things you can do more of? Have you ever asked a friend what actions they appreciate the most as a demonstration of caring and dedication?

Being good at reciprocity means knowing your friend well enough to know what kinds of things will contribute to them feeling loved and valued.
