What kinda friend are you?

I have been reflecting a lot on this for two days now. What kind of friend am I?

I think a lot of the time I consider myself the giver. Just emotionally. But I never saw myself as a severe taker.

Are your relationships one way? Do you give so much that you feel it's just you? Have you ever seen yourself as a taker?

I did yesterday more then before. Now I'm not talking about spouses. We all have faults in that area. But what about friendships. I realized that although I feel like I try to be there for as many people as I can and try to help. I am just as much of a taker. If not more so. I ask for advice, answers to questions, support and material things. I ask for things and don't repay. I just never had really thought about it but wow.

I think from now on I am really going to work on making sure my friends don't feel they have one way relationships with them. To be there however they need me. To thank them in more ways then words. I need to be more thankful outwardly. I need to let my gratefulness I feel on the inside shine through to the outside and be a better friends. But I also need to let some of my one way relationships go. To stop trying to help so much and just pray. Nothing moves the heart of God like prayer!
