in friendships, you like to be asked for. you feel most loved when your friends make it clear they want you in their lives, whether it's an invitation to socialize or texting you for no reason. nothing feels better than when they say your name. you're still protective, though, and if it comes down to it, you view yourself as at least partially responsible for their well-being—it's how you pay them back for making you feel welcome. if the time comes where there are hard decisions to be made, you pick the one that will spare them the brunt of the pain. they want you—so it's your responsibility to defend them. whether you like it or not, you view friendship as partly transactional.
