What does friendship and love have in common?

National Payback a Friend Day

There’s a price for friendship and love.

If in your life you have wanted to turn a friendship to love, but there was a debt blocking your path, let’s think about clearing that debt.

There are four ways you could be blocked from your transformation of the relationship. There’s only one way to overcome the obstacle. Let’s talk about the four ways first.

1.IOUs can leave a friendship MIA Nearly 80 percent of Americans feel that owing a friend money is bad for their friendship.

2.Millennials have a bad rep but they’re not alone Lots of people believe that millennials are the demographic that will most likely not pay a friend back. However, boomers have a bad rep too.

3.Apparently there’s a price on friendship Nearly half of all Americans are willing to terminate a friendship because of money.

4.People have lost thousands to friends The amount of money people claim they’ve loaned to friends—and were never paid back—averages out to $2,092.

I still remember a childhood friend who owes me fifty cents. She died rather than pay me back.

The solution is to…

Pay your friend back.?

If you really want to develop the relationship, pay them back with interest. You’ll show that you’ve turned over a new leaf and want to start fresh.?

After all they were the best friend you ever had. Nobody else would lend you money and trust you to pay it back. Nobody else would be there for you in your darkest hour when you needed someone to provide emotional and financial support.

You may know a lot of people but only a handful are true friends through thick and thin.?

Remember the Golden Rule. Only do those things that you’d want someone to do to you.

So, if you’d want to develop friendship into love, play it forward.

It’s the first step to a loving relationship.

Warnings fair.

The relationship may come from someone else. That’s ok. We’re talking about clearing your path to love.

Let me know how it goes.
