Friendship is a beautiful thing, but let’s be real—some friendships can be more work than others. We’ve all had those friends who need constant check-ins, and then there are the ones you don’t talk to for weeks (or months) and pick up right where you left off like no time has passed. Both types of friendships have their pros and cons, and understanding where they fall on the maintenance spectrum can save you a lot of headaches. Let’s dive into what makes a friendship high-maintenance versus low-maintenance, and how you can navigate both in a way that keeps your friendships thriving.﻿RESOURCES:Make It Happen Journal - <a href="https://tyalexander.co/downloads/p/make-it-happen-journal">https://tyalexander.co/downloads/p/make-it-happen-journal</a>5 Day Gratitude Challenge - <a href="https://tyalx.com/gratitude-challenge">https://tyalx.com/gratitude-challenge</a>My debut book, Things I Wish I Knew Before My Mom Died, is available in bookstores everywhere -<a href="https://cms.megaphone.fm/organizations/eca2bba6-5eac-11e8-b750-a344e2023286/podcasts/8bc167ea-7a07-11ec-92af-e35e15a89ff8/episodes/ac7337c2-eb05-11ee-8f06-cb6a15caed3a/%20https://amzn.to/3M7BZ8h"> https://amzn.to/3M7BZ8h</a>CONNECT WITH US:Join in on my intimate writings on Substack - <a href="https://tyalexander.substack.com/">https://tyalexander.substack.com/</a>Also.
