I used to be a great friend, but was pretty high maintenance? I just mean that I had high standards of friendship, and would walk away from friendships if someone let me down.

A few years ago though, I decided to not ask so much of my friendships. Overall, it's been a huge win in my life and a big boon for my professional networking. However I do think that I have less rewarding friendships now. I think when I asked more of my friends, I gave more and received more.

Not sure how to reconcile and process all this. I'll figure it out when the kids are older haha!

Are you a high-maintenance friend? Do you ask and/or give a lot to your friends?
