The Importance of Mutually Beneficial Friendships

I used to have friends who didn't contribute much to the friendship. I was always the one making plans and initiating contact. Although I had a good time with them, I didn't feel a deep trust to be myself around them. As time went on, I started questioning if I should prioritize friendships that help me grow. I have limited time on this planet and personal and professional ambitions. I have other friends who not only make me laugh but also engage in deep conversations. Interacting with them leaves me feeling better and wiser.
