Abstract: Reciprocity has always been an unconscious drive to individuals, and this has been a norm among friendship relationships. In this study however we aimed at exploring the connection between reciprocity in friendship relationships, 200 questionnaires were randomly distributed to individuals in different areas in Kuala Lumpur, these included Sunway, Puchong, Cheras, Damansara and KLCC. A total of 100 females and 100 males participated in the study and their age groups ranged from 18 – 30 years. The respondents were selected randomly in public places. The results highlight that there is a very strong correlation between reciprocity and friendship relationships. Gender differences were also explored.
